Firefighters Olympics

This has been a busy week! Since Sunday we have packed up the kids and the truck and went to watch Ryan play several sports in the Olympics. Sunday was the first day and he played on the Dodgeball team...and yes it was very entertaining!! There were six balls with two teams of six, they did pretty good considering being so new to the game and the heat. On Monday he played Over the Line at the beach. It turned out to be a long day but they ended up getting a silver medal. Go CFD! Parker and Tyler had a fantastic time at the beach. They each took about a 2 hour nap and loved playing in the sand, with their ball, firetruck, and bike. It was a simple day and they had a blast. At the end of the day we got to watch several dolphins play in the water. Tuesday and Wednesday (maybe Thursday) is softball and that was fun, they went 0 for 2 but the boys (little boys) had such a good time playing on the playground and eating frozen lemonade. Overall, it has been a very busy week but a lot of fun!

So concerned!!!

Yesterday I was sitting in the rocking chair in Tyler's room. I wasn't in the best of mood and Parker walks in and asks, "Mommy what's wrong"  I told him I was fine.  He then gets real close to my face with his cup in hand and says, "Mommy you want some of my juice, it make you feel better" I told him no thank you and he kept asking me what was wrong.  Then he says, "I sorry you sick Mommy"  

He is such a sweetie!  I was amazed that he could read into my emotions that much and he isn't even 3 yet.

Palm Springs

We just got back from our Palm Springs trip with the Corona Fire softball team.  We are exhausted!!  It was about 100 degrees and we all stayed in one hotel room (all 7 of us plus baby Remp, so that makes 8)  We all had fun but it was crazy and chaotic.  The kids didn't take naps and Tyler took a very short nap but they had fun being free and running around.  Yesterday, Leisa and I took the kids swimming. Parker liked it and eventually started jumping into the pool to me.

He even jumped a couple times without holding my hands.  Tyler on the other hand screamed everytime I brought him in the pool.  He just wanted to pick off all of rocks that were on the nearby trash can.  He wanted nothing to do with the water. Today, Parker and Brooke tried sunflower seeds for the first time.  They did pretty good with breaking the shell and eating the seed. That only lasted about 5 minutes and then they started eating the shell and seed all together.  We came home and let the kids play in the sand box and bathed them and put them to bed!!!  It was a busy weekend but overall it was a good trip!!!!
