The past few weeks have been extremely hectic. A few weekends ago Jon took Josh to the Hawks/Mavericks game in Atlanta with Mike. They had a wonderful time. Jon just got, yet another work assignment out of town and it looks like he will not be getting to coach and is settling for assistant coach since he won't be able to devote enough time to the team. He is disappointed to say the least. He is now working out of town 5 days a week instead of 4 so that leaves me with another 24 hours of being outnumbered 3 to 1 with kids. I will survive but some days are more challenging than others. Baseball is here: Josh is all signed up and ready to go, Heston is also signed up for T-ball. He is hitting right handed so we'll see how he does this 1st year playing ball, he is really excited. (on a side note, he is officially left handed-we have also noticed he kicks a ball with his right foot too). Josh's 10th Birthday party was at our house on Saturday 3/6 from 5-8pm and the weather was pretty so they played outside most of the time. Josh invited his basketball team along with a few various friends from school, church and the neighborhood, he has a decent turn out and got lots of great presents. Heston's Birthday went well. He is officially 3 and no longer a baby. We had a family party that consisted of going to CiCi's pizza and coming home for cake and presents...He has really enjoyed the cake-Since we did not give him a party with friends we took cup cakes to school for all to enjoy. I think he had a pretty good day. Thank you all for sending Birthday wishes to the kids the past 5 weeks! Josh had his Basketball Awards dinner the other week-overall he really enjoyed basketball and is looking forward to try-outs next year. Kate has a BIG attitude these days, not sure what is up with her, but trust me I am trying hard to get to the bottom of it. If she is like this at 5 I am not sure we will survive when she is 15! She is more than ready for Kindergarten and wants to take swim lessons and piano lessons soon. She is still in gymnastics so one thing at a time...I am only one person!! I am a firm beliver that keeping kids active is good for their health as well as keeps them out of trouble during their teenage years, but I also think there is a limit on how much they can handle, especially at this age. Only 1 kid is involved in 1 activity at any given time has been my rule of thumb til this year when we decided to sign Heston up for ball too-we'll see how this works out- a little nervous I must admit. We have birthday parties to attend every weekend in the month of March not to mention the boys' birthdays and dad's birthday...Josh's is 3/6 dad's is 3/9 and Heston's is 3/12, so that is one busy week!! Our weekends also stay busy with birthday parties, baseball and other activities and with the weather getting warmer and summer quickly approaching...the kids will be wanting to head to the Lake/swimming pool. Which is fine with us, because it wears them out!! I think this pretty much sums up life at the Daivs' for now anyways. I promise I will be posting pictures from all our activities soon. Until then...Cheers!
