Spring is in the air

As the rest of the world seems to be under snow now, we are enjoying the 60 and 70 degree weather. Ty is loving his new big boy bike which he takes on our walks down to the park. We have enjoyed quite a few family afternoons at the field down from our house playing kick ball. Ty has started his first team sport, beginning tball last week. He has gone to two practices now, and just loves being out on the field with all the kids. At his first practice Chad and I quickly realized that he has never been taught the terms of baseball - like first base, home, etc. He was too cute with the look on his face when the coach told him to touch first base. The whole time they were out there Ty kept asking Chad if he could put his batting helmet on, then when he did he realized how cool the sound of his new bat made when it hit his helmet. Too cute! Aidan loves his practices since she just loves any excuse to be outside. She watches him practice hitting the ball and when he hits it Aidan will chant "Sweet T, Sweet T" She is one of his biggest fans. Our little girl is just a mess, she is in her own world most of time. She just does and says the funniest things. One of her favorite times is when she wakes up early enough to catch Chad and I at the end of our early morning workouts. She gets on the floor with us and attempts to copy what we are doing, the whole time counting "1-2-3-4-5" When it comes to situps that girl can put us to shame. Ty is already getting geared up for his birthday next month. He doesn't know yet but we are taking a family trip over to Disney where we will have a birthday breakfast for him with some of the disney characters. Ty and Aidan will both be so excited.
