Visitor from the Past

Daniel was very excited that Oliver Cowdery made a visit to sharing time. Apparently M has been well trained, because she saw the camera and immediately came to get in the picture with him.

Who re-seeds mid-season?

The City of Tracy re-seeds mid-season! Consequently, the soccer game was a bit muddy today, and while Daniel came out of it pretty clean (note Rodrigo, to his right, did not), Nathan needed a bath when we got home. Daniel's team won 3-0 and had fun doing it. Daniel was pretty excited because Andrew, one of the boys in our primary class, was on the Sharks team.

Cute to distraction

I usually miss out on the fun Nathan has in Sunday School while I'm in primary. This week Sister Johnson (there's one in every ward right? not ours, we have three!) was so distracted by these two having fun together that she filled me in with these photos. Nathan's hair looks especially good because I had to give it a quick scrub in the mother's room after I fed him. He had shoes on when we went to church.

Dr. Suess anyone?

Today I was lazy (or should I say frugal) and didn't want to open two packages of string cheese. Nathan was enjoying his cheese bits when Joshua suddenly noticed the diminutive size of his cheese stick. He accused me of treachery, but I reassured him, in a motherly way, that it was actually a special "midget cheese." He took a tentative bite (suspicious and picky as always) and declared "I do like it! I would eat it in a boat, and I would eat it with a... wooga!" Too true, because his piece had been divided between the two of them.

Note: Wooga is what we call Nathan, because he made some pretty funny Wookie sounds just a few short months ago. He doesn't make them often any more, but the nickname stuck.

National Gymnastics Day

We had a lot of fun on Saturday (the 10th) at Classic Gymnastics, the gym where Joshua has his gymnastics lessons. Nathan napped while I watched him and the action. We also enjoyed our taste of the birthday cake, this is third anniversary of the gyms opening.

Joshua showed Dewain a lot of tricks, he isn't often the expert and enjoyed showing off. Evidently he was a pretty good teacher, because Dewain seemed to be a natural at the rings.

Daniel loved going down the trampoline and went over and over again. He was a little miffed at the end that he didn't get to try everything in the hour we were there.
