A Day at the Ballpark

Take me out to the ballgame.....

So we had a friend from college who invited myself and some other guy friends to attend a UT baseball game. Here are some pictures. Noah had a great time and he said his favorite part was the "baseball game" so I hope he means that the purity of the sport was his favorite. Even though UT has replaced the purity of the astroturf at DF with field turf. Oh side note they are also replacing the football field with field turf for next year as well.
Say goodbye to natural grass.

Noah waiting for everybody to go up to the suite.


Noah and me giving the Hook'em Horns. It was a double header so we didn't get to sing the Eye's of Texas after the game was over, but we did sing Texas Fight, which Noah calls "The fight, fight, fight, fight fight song".





Travis & Brooke - Brooke wasn't too interested in the game, but she enjoyed playing inside with her dad and Noah for over half the game






Noah & Tyler Hampton enjoying the new vintage seats of Disch-Faulk field.

We had a lot of fun and Brooke was asleep by the time we got out to the interstate. Noah stayed awake the rest of the day. When he laid down that night I think he was asleep in 2 minutes without the usual story, drink, which room are you going in fan fair.

Ball & Quack

So Katherine has started to add some words to her vocabulary along with the obligatory Ma-Ma and Da-Da. Without further ado.........



Some semblance of the word Ball

....and Katherine's impression of a duck....

Confessions of a 3yr old

Its been a while since I've posted on here, but Noah just told me something that melted my heart as a dad. We were eating popcorn tonight while reading our story (special treat since Megan had a Bible study down stairs).

Anyway he looks up at me and says, "Dad you're my best friend, did you know that?" with the sweetest look on his face.

Then his little brain was trying to form something really deep and he told me, "I really miss you on Christmas time and on Saturdays". Which is really odd because I'm around all those times. Maybe he meant he misses Xmas and likes spending time with me on Saturday's. Who knows but his mind and the Lord.

Noah's Joke

Noah told me a knock knock joke this morning. It really wasn't the joke that had me cracking up so much and asking him to tell it over and over again, but the excitement that he got in telling it and him thinking that he is downright hilarious.

Noah: Knock Knock
Me: Who's there
Noah: Who cow
Me: Who cow who
Noah: who cow who cow.....hillarity

Greatest from the mind of a 3yr old.

Katherine is Mobile!!!

Our baby girl has started walking. It has really been a process more than just a moment, but man is she fast now. She'll still crawl if she gets tired but she's walking across rooms now.

Noah in the Christmas Mood

Last night I read Noah the story about Joseph and Mary going to Bethlehem from one of his child Bibles.

This morning he proceeds to place a blanket on Megan's head and tell her that she is baby Jesus' mommy. He then went even further and put Katherine in her lap and told Katherine that she was baby Jesus. He then told everyone that they would play the donkey go look at baby Jesus game. (side note, to him everything is a game, the brushing your teeth game, the eating your dinner game, etc and you'll really find that out when he tells you he's not playing that game ANYMORE).

I love it and I don't care that Christmas keeps getting earlier and earlier each year. Welcome Christmas bring your cheer, welcome all whos far and near.
