Emmerson has known her ABCs for months...it's just so hard to get her to sing them all on video! AND when I had Carter helping me teach her, he was getting really bored. So he would insert "poo poo" or "pee pee" into the song at certain times (of course he would - little boys, I swear!) SO when Emm would sing them, of course she would sing "a, b, c, d, e, f, poo poo" - and I just couldn't bring myself to record / post that one. Although funny, it's gotten REALLY old, ha!
And this is Carter playing Indoor Soccer...in the Spring, he always thought it was just a race. No ball needed. Just run as fast as you can down the field and you win! Those were his rules...and he was good at his little game :) So for winter season, we tried to explain to him the necessity of going after the ball - and he has done so much better! But he wasn't ever aggressive when other people would have it. So apparently Tim gave him some advice - that he was allowed to push / shove. Now I'm pretty sure Tim meant when they were all in a mass huddle, going for the ball, that it was okay to use your forearms a little, etc. HOWEVER, my child did not get that part of the advice...so watch near the end of the video (Carter is # 16) - He just takes out the biggest kid on the other team. Wow. It was funny - but I was a little embarrassed. I called his name - and he yelled "Daddy told me I needed to push!" Great. We need to clarify before this weekend's game!
We have been married since June 9, 2007. On February 25, 2010 at 4:07 p.m., we welcomed our first child into our lives. A son, Carter Thomas. And now, we are a family of 4! Our sweet daughter, Emmerson Marie, was born on March 18, 2013 at 7:53 a.m. We are so blessed!
