End of Soccer Season

Ramsey enjoyed learning some soccer skills this year. He is beginning to learn about sports and that they are competitive even though we as parents teach sharing and getting along on a daily bases. Sports are a a bit of a hard concept simply because you are trying to not share the ball and beat the other team. (there was one pratice he cried because the other kids weren't sharing the ball)This is a bit confusing but we are sure he'll pick it with practice. Here are a few pics from his last practice. Each of the kids were given a medal which Ramsey felt very cool and accomplished about:







Here is is with his buddy Addison. This was as close as she would agree to stand to Ramsey. She thinks he is wild:

Rockin' Ramsey

I've been meaning to post this video for a while but couldn't get my blog to upload it. This is from his end of the year program from preschool. It just cracks me up how when the music comes on he can't help but rock out before getting in line to do the actual motions.

(This was just the rehersal but the real thing the next day was just a candid!)

Here we go again...

So with Cars 2 coming out in just a few weeks. Ramsey is once again failing under it's spell. After Christmas he had gotten into Lego's and Wall-E but with all the commercials and displays at Target he is once again hooked on Cars. We have bought lots of the new Cars 2 toys. Did you know the movie even has a fancier McQueen that of course you have to buy. Oh, and they even have a Cars 2 cereal that Ramsey loves. Disney, you've done it again. We love and hate your evil ways! Haha, I didn't even realize he was wearing matching PJ's until just now.

Knight For Breakfast

Cope and I just got back from a LONG weekend trip to a cabin in Virginia with our friends from Ft. Drum, NY. There we 8 of us in total and we had a blast. Ramsey stayed at Cope's parents house (AKA Grammy and Grampy) and seemed to have more fun then us. Here is a picture of him in costume at their breakfast tables: More pics and tales to come...

Let Summer Begin

Ramsey and I have started our summer off a little crazy. Last week it was double ear infections and this week it was a cavity filling. Yes, try holding a 3 year old down (kicking and screaming) to get a back tooth filled. Needless to say it wasn't fun but afterwards we went to Target and let him pick out a Cars 2 toy and then went swimming for the first time this year. I am loving the laziness of summer even though Cope is still working his regular schedule and I still have lots of embroidery orders that I am working on daily.

We have 2 vacations, Vacation Bible School, pre-school summer camp, swim lesson, Lake-Winnie, ATL aquarium, movies, play dates and lots more fun things in store for the summer. Bring on the hot days and Summer Fun!

Katie's 30th Birthday Bash

Saturday night we celebrated my friend Katie's 30th Birthday. It was lots of fun and started off with a limo ride from Katie's house to a downtown restaurant with 30 guest and a plated dinner. I had the salmon and it was yummo! We had the restaurant all to ourselves and even had a band and signature cosmopolitans to drink! We danced, mingled, acted silly and just really had a good time. Here are some pics from the night: All the Ladies ready to head out. We felt like we were going to prom: Cope and Me in the limo: Bigger group of ladies at dinner:

Happy Birthday Katie!

Before I forget...

A few funny things from Ramsey as of lately before I forget them:

1) Yesterday he had said his throat was hurting and he said "Mommy it feels like I have a monster truck in my throat"

2) The other night we were laying on the sofa watching TV after dinner and Ramsey was messing around with legos when he said "Guess where my lego man is?" We had no idea so we asked him to tell us and he proceed to bend over and show us that he had hidden lego man in his butt cheeks. We then had a serious little talk about how we don't put things in there but I was laughing the whole time.

3) He is also on this new kick about lying and learning what a true lie is. Sometimes he'll ask me a question and then when I answer he'll say "Mommy, are you lying to me?"

4) The other night while I was giving him his bath we we're talking about how I take care of him and I asked him if he would take care of me when I am old and he is a man. He thought for a minute and said "Nah, I'll just send you to be with God". Needless to say he'll make quick work of me when I am no longer useful :)

5) One the way to church last week he asked Cope and me if we were going to be his teacher at Sunday school that day (Since we were the week before) and I said "No, mommy and Daddy are going to the service" and he said "Oh, I like the Circus!"
