Bennet’s First T-Ball/Soccer Team – The Brown Bears

Bennet had a very big day today and has been looking forward to it for a long time.  He had his first t-ball practice and is a very proud Brown Bear.  These three year olds were so fun to watch, we couldn’t soak it in enough.  With such little guys, they work on their skills at different stations and then at the end of their session, they play a “game”.  Bennet did so great and I was amazed how everyone on his team listened so well.  His coach was wonderful and he had such a good time.  At the end, he ran over to me and Nana and said, “Mommy, I did it!”  After t-ball, he went with Hayden to their preschool for Ooooeeeyy Goooeeeyy Tuesdays.  This was Bennet’s first time at his new preschool that he’ll attend next year.  He was so happy to finally be a big boy.  Hayden was a great big brother and showed him “the ropes”.  After preschool, we went out to eat with Nana and Papa and played outside some more.  Without a nap and all of the excitement,  Bennet fell asleep on the couch at 5:30 before dinner and we couldn’t wake him.  So, we just put him to bed.  What an awesome and special day!

A Fun Week for the Ronins

Last week, the boys and I flew down to Orlando while Jamie was in France for business.  Hayden and Bennet really liked flying again, which is great, because it’s such a nice flight down there. The three of us missed Jamie, but definitely kept ourselves busy by swimming everyday and going to Magic Kingdom and Epcot again.  Every time we go down there we have so much fun and the boys are little fish.  Hayden had a big couple of days, because I think he can finally swim alone now without water wings.  He took them off at our clubhouse pool and at my parents and was swimming around. It was very exciting for him and he was so proud.  I think by the end of the summer, we won’t need to pack them anymore for him at all.  We are glad to be home, but I think we’ll all be ready to go back to Orlando and Pensacola in a month.

Hayden’s Last Day of Preschool 2014

Today Hayden had his last day of preschool, ever.  I really can’t believe that he’ll be in Kindergarten next year.  Wow.  I’m so happy for him and the progress that he’s made this year.  His teacher was absolutely awesome and taught him so much.  Hayden will miss it but says that he's excited for elementary school.  Now, on to our favorite time of year, summer.
