Sports

The past couple of months have been filled with sporting events. We enjoyed going to the Middleton High School home football games to root on our friend, and Elizabeth's boyfriend, Logan during his senior year of football. The kids especially enjoyed homecoming with the fireworks.


This is how I found Ezra in his crib. Apparently his siblings got to him first.


William enjoys going to the Lil Bitty Gymies class at the gym every Friday. They have balls, bowling, trampolines, bubbles, slides, parachutes and a bunch of other things to have the kids be active for a half an hour.



Ezra is always along for the ride.



Elizabeth had a rough go with soccer. She was super excited to play and with every game, she was excited to put on her uniform. However, once the game started, she didn't want anything to do with it. Jim and I bribed her with EVERYTHING and she still didn't want to play. So after numerous games of her sitting on the sidelines with me chasing William and dealing with Ezra, I finally found the bribe that worked: a plush hello kitty blanket at Costco. Once she got on the field, she had a blast and play the last couple of games of the season. She is fun to watch because she has no real interest in the game. All she does is just run around the field with the rest of the kids. She will even get the ball and start dribbling it down the field and then just stop, as if she had enough.


Isaac has improved greatly since last season although the videos don't show it. He has a passion for soccer and really enjoyed playing 2 days a week this year. Isaac also has been involved in wrestling one day a week. Jim enjoys helping coach that. It will be interesting to see what sports Isaac will end up playing. He also was interested in trying football and hockey but I thought 2 sports 3 days a week was enough for him and for me.
