Soccer!

The Spring 2009 Twins Soccer started today.

Soccer is twice a year in Spring and Fall and this is our third season of soccer. What a difference the last 6 months made.

Last Fall we had to be out on the field with the boys for them to play and they would never last the whole practice, which is only 30 minutes.

This season, Connor and Ryan were so excited about starting soccer again. When we got to the park, they went right to the soccer balls and started kicking the balls. Ed and I were able to watch from the sidelines instead of being on the field with them, C&R were listening to the coaches and following directions.

The kids decide what the team name is going to be during the first session each season. This time, Connor suggested Elephants, so their team is the Elephants.

Below is a picture of the 4-5 year old soccer team "The Elephants" doing their stretches.

Wiggle Cars

With the recent sunshine and warm weather, Connor and Ryan have been enjoying riding the wiggle cars they got for Christmas. Below are a few pictures.

Cousins

We enjoyed our visit with Len, Mary, Dani and Cody on April 14. It was a quick visit. We saw them after work, went out to dinner, and the kids played until bedtime. It is always great to see you guys!

Here is a picture of the four kids together.

Yankee Doodle

Here is a video of Connor and Ryan singing Yankee Doodle.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! We went to Rohnert Park for Easter weekend.

In the above picture Connor, Ryan, Cody and Tyler are looking at their Easter baskets.

On Sunday, we went to Tom and Cara's house for an Easter egg hunt in their backyard. Above is Connor, below is Ryan.

And, here is Cody proud of all his eggs.

We went to Mutti's house for Easter brunch. Connor and Ryan thought Mutti's motorized chair was cool with all the buttons.

And, a family picture, complete with Ryan's pouty lip.

4 year old doctor appointment

Connor and Ryan had their 4 year old well-child appointment today. They measured in at the same height at 40 1/2 inches. Their weight was pretty close too with Ryan at 36.6 lbs and Connor at 36.8 lbs. They are 54 percentile for height and 56-58 percentile for weight.

It is just amazing how consistently they have always in sync on the height and weight their whole life. But, then again, they are identical twins.

Luckily, no shots this year. They get those next year before kindergarten.
