Andrew got braces!

So this past Thursday I took Andrew in to get his braces. He has literally been counting down the days he has been so excited about getting them.So I took him in and he started to get a little nervous, and asked me to stay with him I was so scared for him but I could not tell him that.

He sat like this for over an hour, and for Andrew that is a huge accomplishment this is a kid who can't sit still for a 30 min science lesson. He did not move, or complain I don't think I could have been so good.

The end result, my handsome little man. He has been so good these last few days everyone has told me he was going to be in so much pain the first night I was so worried that I would not be able to help him but he has not complained once. He has been so great about keeping them clean and not eating anything he shouldn't. I can't wait to see how much more handsomer he gets as they start to straighten out his adorable smile!

Adventures in T-Ball

So this spring we decided to sign all the boys up for baseball and Lilli for softball. This is the first time all 4 kids have been involved in activities, and it seems overwhelming worrying about getting them all to their different practices, along with our other activities we are already doing but so far we are making it work.

They have all had their first practices, and Lilli and Andrew are doing great considering this is their first year I am very proud of them, they are so enthusiastic it just makes me smile to see how much fun they are having!

Brady was really all over the place, but he loved hitting the ball, he has a pretty good arm but not to much attention for a 3 year old, but still it makes me so happy to see him play.

 Waiting his turn!

Practicing his swing.

 He hit the ball, YAY!!!

He made it to first!

He was worn out after about an hour of practice but I had fun watching him!

Jason was so great today at his first practice he went right in and introduced himself to the coach, practiced fielding ground balls, and throwing he's got an arm! And man can that boy swing a bat, and run I heard one of the other moms say "that boy has legs built for running!" I think Steven had more fun watching him, and helping him learn than Jason did playing!

Fielding ground balls!

Rounding second!

Going for third!

Getting in some hits! While Daddy cheers him on!

getting some advice from the coach!

I am so proud of all my kiddos!!!! Can't wait till they get to play in some games... 

Stay tuned for more adventures in T-Ball to come!

Things have been a little busy around the Sloan house!

I feel so bad for not posting anything in over a month things have been pretty crazy around here lately. We had some sick kiddos for about two weeks, along with two birthdays and some Cub Scout fun and other crazy adventures thrown in there.
Lilli turned 12 last month, crazy I know seems like just yesterday we were bringing her home form the hospital, now she is a young woman!

Lilli 4 months old

Lilli and her friends at her 12th Birthday Party!

We had our Cub Scout Blue and Gold Banquet on march 1st, after a lot of work, the night was a great success the boys and their families had an amazing time!

And Jason turned 6 on the 12th, my little man has come such a long way in his life. You would never know how sick and frail he was as a baby to see him running around today. He is such a big boy, and so strong I am so proud of him every day and thank God for his health and the amazing Doctors that helped us those first few years of his life!
