Some things

This is Erin. I have been given the ok by Chris to post things on here while he's busy. So, here is my first official post! One major thing that is different between Chris & I is that I can spell. :)

I got to take the day off today and spend it with Avery. I took her to her soccer class (see previous post about the bobcat thing). Let's just say she believes kicking the ball is the hard way of doing things. It's much easier to pick it up and carry it around to where you need it to go first. Here are a few pictures from her class. Sorry I couldn't get any action shots. I didn't have our good camera with me.






And of course, a hands on the hips pose. This little girl's brother is in the class but she really wants to play.


And here are some other random photos I took the past few days.

First, Avery got this foam sword from Michael's. She really likes to stab us with it. Chris has also taught her to play baseball with it and a pair of socks. She's got good form.


It was nice enough today that we were able to go outside today to play with chalk and to ride our tricycles. Yes, I have one...no I don't.


And the infamous...Puppy! Or "Cheese" as he's been referred to lately.


And finally, here's Avery reading about the woes of our local school district. As you can tell by her reading the paper upside down, we have some work to do.


Until next time!

Hijacking!

I'm highjacking Chris's blog to tell you all what we've been up to! Chris has been way too busy to get on here. He is in deep with his student teaching and even attended his first Parent/Teacher conferences session last week as the "Teacher". He has to dress up everyday and even irons his clothes.

Avery has started dance class up again and is also taking a soccer class on Thursdays. They have to pretend the ball is a bobcat to remind them that they could get "bit" if they pick up the ball. I'm not so sure about this, if you can imagine.

I'm busy at work right now and trying to watch my shows at night and reading books and staying out of Chris's way when he's on the computer.

And the whole family is feeling a little bittersweet that the football season is over with. Maybe next year (for both of our teams!)...

Ok, I'll have Chris post or I'll do it myself another post with pictures soon!
