Logan’s teacher couldn’t resist snapping this one – he had blueberries all over his face and of course he could care less. It’s a great time of year to live in Oregon. We have endless bounties of berries and plenty of lazy afternoons for the kids to ‘bury’ their faces nose-deep.
It’s official. Haley is now a 1st grader. He prefers we mention that upfront, and comment on the ‘kindergarten’ graduation thereafter. Everybody he sees, from our neighborhood to the grocery store, receives the same salutation,”Did you know that I’m in 1st grade?” Let’s just hope this enthusiasm for school holds root!
The Yankees played their final innings at the Gresham Little League Jamboree. That coincided with Ampa Denny’s birthday, so Haley wanted to dedicate his last at bat to his Ampa. His ‘baseball genes’ came from his Ampa Denny, who was an all-star player in Arizona in his youth. Haley hit a double on his last swing and he made the last put-out of the game playing third base.
Tasha took the boys to the park and set up play area around the jungle gym. Haley took off to tackle the equipment, while Logan stayed behind to catch some shade. He is now pulling himself up and practicing his standing. Just another foot or so and he’ll be pushing his stroller to the park and back. Guess we won’t need the stroller then.
