Go Nashville Sounds!!

Matt and Steven ventured to Nashville Friday night to the Sounds game. They got there when the gates opened so they could do their thing. The boys enjoy getting autographs and they have an awesome collection started. They both have so much fun and it's awesome because this is something they have together that they can use as a small way to father/ son bond. Here are some pictures from their day at the park... Did I say the game got rained out before it even started. They'll get to change in their tickets for a different game.


You can see the sky getting dark before the storm.

Ok, I don't know who any of these players are... sorry!


Matt with the mascot OZZY!!! He had a blast even though it was rained out and I'm sure that won't be the only game we attend this year.

It's GO Time!!! Hold On!!

Steven got a good deal on a Backyardigans go-cart/ ride-on for Alyssa. We actually got it for her birthday, but it's just be nice enough here lately for her to try it out. It was really hilarious and I hope that she starts to like it, I hate for it to go to waste. So here are pictures from her first day on her go-cart!!!



Here she is getting in and getting herself situated. Steven is helping her put on her seatbelt. At this point she's pretty excited and Brother is excited for her.


So, here we are telling her to push the red button...."Push the Button Lou!!!"


Here, she finds the button and pushes it just alittle bit..

Then she pushes it a lot.. She catches herself... THEN...

She pushes it a lot... WHOA!!! Hold on Lou....



It scared her to death... She wasn't expecting that at all. At that point she wanted out immediately. She reached for Steven.

Her brother tried to comfort her. She still wanted out of that go-cart.

Somebody, please get me out of here!!!!

Steven tried to show her that it wasn't so bad. Here Lou, just barely push it. You'll have fun. She tried again....

No, she still didn't like it... She still didn't want to play with it.

Well, we took her out of it. Matt pulled her go-cart into the garage. We'll try it again some other time. Hopefully, she'll start to like it.

We Put The Ham On.....

Alyssa had just gotten out of the tub and I was on the computer when she decided she was going to climb into the bottom drawer on the stove. It was hilarious. She thought at first she was going to be in trouble, but all we could do was laugh because she was so proud of herself. She was just dancing and talking while she was in there and was really upset when it was time to get out. I can tell that's going to be her new place to be.


Steven walked into the room on this picture. She looked up at him with a half smile cause she thought she was in trouble. When she saw she wasn't she turned into a HAM...

Two days after this picture was taken she had been playing in the kitchen and I went to close the drawer she had opened and she had put toys in there..
