Cooper started baseball with the impression that being the catcher would be fun. He had the opportunity a few times throughout the season. This was his first chance.
The kids were happy to celebrate May the Fourth.
Uncle Tex (and family) sent Caitlin her won baseball glove for her birthday.
Jason finally put "our" sign in the yard. Lindsey called me one day saying she had seen that on the side of the road near her house. We laughed, but sort of agreed that if it was still there a few days later, she would pick it up. Since the conversation started on a Monday, we figured it was after the wedding and the sign went home with her.
Caitlin continued swim and I caught her once in trouble.
Cooper got three hits in one game and ended it with a snocone. Both kids had to show off their blue tongues.
Caitlin's Mother's Day gift from daycare is probably my favorite thing they've done.
These two (and their dad) gave me a great Mother's Day.
We finally had a sunny, dry afternoon to visit the park.
Cooper begged me to take a photos of his Lego creation & send it to Lego magazine. I still haven't done one of those things.
I visited Cooper's teacher for an end of the year conference. She shared with me Cooper's photo on the wall. He came home one day telling us that his photo was going to be on the wall by the nurses office. Jason & I joked that it was because he visited the nurse so often. Turns out, his teacher suggested to the counselor his photo be added for the month of May. Each child was asked what they wanted to be when they grew up, and Cooper has been insistent that he would be a paleontologist.
Caitlin was invited to join her friend Quinn at gymnastics one evening. She loved it, but getting there is really tough! Traffic in Houston is always an adventure.
Instead of Kindergarten Graduation, our school hosts a Writing Celebration. The kids sing a few songs, and then spend time showing their family the writing they've worked so hard on.
Cooper had such a great year with these friends!
Sometime over the summer, Caitlin started to prefer dresses over pants. Before that happened, I could only convince her to willingly wear a dress if is had a character she liked. The Sofia dress she got for her birthday was a clear winner.
