Take me out to the ball game...

Ryan's baseball team had an awesome season this year. They made it all the way to the state championship game in Indianapolis this last weekend. Sadly, they didn't win that game, but we had fun anyway! Well, Leah and I did anyway. We went down to Indy the day before the game and spent an exhausting and fun-filled day at the Indianapolis Zoo. We painted our nails bright blue to cheer on the team. (Well, that was the plan anyway until Leah backed out and opted for sparkly-pink-glitter-princess-explosion instead.)

The pictures are actually from the semi-finals, which they won...I forgot to take pictures at the game in Indy.

And here are some pictures from our zoo adventure...

Again, here's Leah making friends with a tiger....she loves them!

Sam's Blog Debut

The Coronavirus pandemic has us hunkering down at home like many people around the country, and we are working to make the best of it! The kids miss their friends at school and are disappointed about various things that have been cancelled or put on hold indefinitely, however there we are enjoying the time together as a family. The days are full of extra stories, games, puzzles, bike rides, and walks. We have started a few activities as part of our "school at home" routine and figured that resurrecting the blog might be a fun way to share what the kids are up to. But first, since the last time I wrote on the blog James was just learning how to crawl, and now James is a 4-year-old big brother, we figured we should officially introduce Mr. Samuel Drexel on the blog! Sam is 9 months old now and he is lots of fun. The kids have figured out a few ways to get him belly laughing in recent days. We all laugh when he crawls after a pilates ball and pounces...

A Very Belated Welcome to Baby James Lawrence

Ok. So, I haven't updated the blog in QUITE some time. And I have received subtle and not-so-subtle hints that certain loved ones far away would like an update! I will work on uploading some recent pictures and events! I feel it is only fair to give James a dedicated post, as I never posted pics here when our sweet new little guy was first born. As you can imagine, life has been a bit crazy around here. The good kind of crazy... But crazy. James was born 11/27/15 - almost a whole month earlier than his due date! He was 6 pounds, 10 ounces. He had a little stay in the NICU while his lungs strengthened and healed, and then we brought him home in time for Christmas. His first name, James, is Ryan's dad's name (and Ryan's middle name.) His middle name, Lawrence, was my Grandpa's name. He has two awesome patron saints and namesakes! He is now almost 6 months, is rolling, babbling, laughing, and starting to eat...

Happy Birthday Great Grandma Marguerite!

Ryan's grandmother is celebrating a special birthday this summer, and in honor of that, her whole family got together to celebrate. All her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren were there! It was quite a party. Our boys got to meet Grandma Gerrick for the first time which was so special. We also went to a baseball game, the aquarium, swam in the pool, saw the ocean, and ate yummy seafood. Despite the fact that we were recovering from summer sickies, it was a lovely time.
