4 Months!




Morgan is already 4 months old!  She is such fun to have in our family!  She has been chewing on her hands a lot and drooling lately.  She likes to kick things and grab and put things in her mouth.  She smiles all the time and giggles when she thinks you are funny!  The boys love her and are more interested in her now that she is starting to be a little more exciting!

Tooth Fairy was at The Thompson House


Kade lost 2 teeth last week.  His bottom left he pulled out using a blanket manuver on the stairs and his top left tooth himself after a lot of coaxiing from the parents.

America's Favorite Past Time




Kade and Jeff played PAL baseball this year. Kade was #7 on the Twins. He played right field, catcher, and some short stop.  He was a very solid hitter.  His coach pitched to him.  His batting average ended up at .864.  He had 5 RBI's and the last game he got all 3 outs one inning.  His coach kept stats by the way.  Jeff played tee-ball on the Royals and was #9.  He batted last on his team so he got a home run every time up to bat.  His coach said he was the fastest 4 year old he'd ever seen.  By the middle of the season he had some fancy behind the back baton twirling ritual going as he went up to bat that was pretty funny!

Dairy Dash

During the Meridian Dairy Days they have a bike race for the kids at Meridian Speedway.  Kade loves races, cars, etc so he had to do this!  First thing they did was decorate their bikes.  Then they all had a parade around the track and then the races began.  Jeff raced with Dylan in the first heat and then Kade and Anna raced in the second heat.  They had a lot of fun.  Kade really wanted to compete but the other kids were older, bigger and had bigger bikes that took much less effort.  He was pretty bummed about that.  Anyhow, I think we are going to have to do this again next year.  It was really fun!
