He's got a pretty good arm!!

I see T-ball in my future

Garrett LOVES baseball- esp. the Yankees! Every night when we come home it's "baseball?, Yankees?" - he wants us to find them on TV so he can watch! It's amazing what he has picked up from watching it on TV. He will get in a squatting position and say "baseball" (I guess that means he is going to be our little catcher!), when he holds a bat to swing he "jiggles" the bat (you know, like the professionals!), and then....he started doing what your about to see in this video on Sunday. At first we couldn't figure out what he as doing...then it hit us....he is actually "running" to a "base"!! This proves how much kids absorb things.

MOTORCYCLE!!

Garrett has found a love for motorcycles...from a distance! But his cousin Michael was able to convince him to ride his dirtbike this weekend....off of course with Daddy and Michael pushing him!!

Bubble Time with Uncle Tyler

Tyler leaves Monday for New York before heading to Basic the following week. He came over today and spent the afternoon and evening with us. Garrett had gotten bubbles for Easter-but left them at Mom and Dad's. Tyler brought them today-and when Garrett saw them he immediately wanted to go outside and play with bubbles. He had a GREAT time playing with his Uncle Tyler! :)

 

Easter 2009

We had a busy Easter weekend! Garrett had 3....yes 3 easter egg hunts! He had a blast :) The Easter bunny visited him on Sunday and brought him a lawn mower-so now he can help Daddy when he mows :) Carleane and Bill also got Garrett a shopping cart for Easter...it is the cutest thing ever-he goes around putting things in there and pushing them...too funny!! Hope everyone had a great Easter :)

 

In the Army Now

That's right...my baby brother has followed in Dad's footsteps and has joined the Army. He leaves for basic in 2 weeks. This weekend we had a party in honor of him. I couldn't be more proud, and honored to call him my brother.

 

Our Trip to Florida

We had a great time in Florida! Time went by too quickly and we hated to come home...but all things must come to an end. Here are all the pics from the week.

Our morning breakfast conversation

Crazy Weather

What crazy weather we are having here in North Carolina. Today is a BEAUTIFUL day! Suppose to get up in the 70's-so we are headed to Chapel Hill to watch a baseball game!! GO HEELS!! However, today is a completely different scene than what we woke up to Monday morning. We had about 5 inches of snow. It was beautiful-although Garrett didn't like it so much (I think it was to deep). Anyway here are some picture I took while Kevin drove me to work that morning (yes, it was like he was driving Ms. Daisy!!).





Here is one Kevin took during the day when he tried to get Garrett to play...notice NO GLOVES (not smart Daddy!!). I was talking to Kevin while he was taking these...his comment to me was "I think his hands are cold"...well NO DUH!!!!

Garrett's first show

We took Garrett to see Disney's Playhouse Disney Live today. In the show are all the characters from the morning shows on the Disney Channel. Garrett loves to watch all those shows so when I heard about this coming I knew we had to go! :) Garrett had a great time :)


The little einsteins

Winnie the Pooh

Handy Mandy

Playing with his new toys during the intermission (yes, for a 1 hr show there was a 20 min. intermission)


Long awaited....MICKEY MOUSE!! *for the record Daisy and Pluto were not in the show-I was very upset that not all the clubhouse friends were included :( I told Garrett maybe they were sick (Daisy is one of his favorites and he was asking for her :( )

Garrett's new raincoat!

I have been looking FOREVER for Garrett a raincoat....and I found one last night!! I think it is the cutest thing ever...and we are having a rainy weekend-so I found it just in time :)

"Garrett, can you go get a tissue for your nose?"

This is what I discovered after asking Garrett that question this afternoon!!
(sorry for the poor picture quality-I wanted to hurry up and take a picture and the closest thing was my phone!!)

The next Derek Jeter??!!

It was suppose to be cloudy and rainy all day...but I guess our weather men got it wrong! The sun was out this morning so Garrett and Daddy went outside to use his new T-Ball set. I got this for Kevin for valentines day (I know it doesn't make much since b/c it's really for Garrett...but Kevin and I have everything we need-so the thought of this gift was he can have some Daddy and Garrett time). Garrett was having so much fun...although I don't think he quite knows each sport individually. One minute he was hitting it off the tee, the next minute trying to golf with it, the next kicking the ball like a soccer ball. Well, atleast he will be well rounded!! :)
