Spring is in the Air

We have been enjoying some beautiful weather the past few weeks. We've been going outside just about every single day, mainly going on afternoon/evening walks or playing in the yard. I am so ready for summer to get here so I can get these babies in the pool! Not to mention, Landon asks just about everyday if the pool is warm enough to swim yet :) It's going to be a great summer!

My mom and I took the kids to the zoo a couple weekends ago. Landon loved looking at the animals. The girls really didn't know they were even around animals...they just loved strolling around outdoors. I wish Chris could have gone, but we went on a Tuesday and he had meetings all day long.

Landon is going to be playing soccer this spring! He has his first practice this weekend, so we piled all the kids in the car and headed up to Sports Authority to get all of his soccer gear. We had already bought him the soccer ball that is required, but we still needed shin guards, cleats, those tall soccer socks, and some soccer shorts. He will get his team jersey at his first practice. After we took over Sports Authority with our herd of children, we went over to the soccer fields across the street to practice for a little bit. Landon did great! He took a few tumbles, got a few scrapes, but nothing that was too big of a deal. He can't quite control the ball while running at the same time yet. His feet just kinda follow the ball no matter which way it's going...which was usually off to another field or something :) He kept saying, "Mommy, I really want to make a goal and I can't" in a real sad voice. :( So, I put the ball right in front of the goal, and he kicked it right in. He was pleased with that :) It's gonna take some practice, but he'll get it! The girls had fun watching big bro...they enjoyed crawling on and eating the grass :) Enjoy the pics!
