Confessions of a soccer wife

Confessions of a soccer wife *Spring Edition*

Things I am just loving this spring:

Dreft stain remover.  This stuff is seriously the bomb (yes that phrase is totally coming back and I did just say it out loud) and if you haven't tried it go buy it,...now.  Seriously.  You know you are getting old when you request stain remover for your 27th birthday,...oh wait that was me.

Definitely lovin some Scott & Ellie's Icecream (so are all 3 of my boys)! Kiptyn loves the lemon crunch!

I must confess that I love love love that we have family game night once a week.  We play Cars Trouble, Buzz Yahtzee, and Batman matching.  Such a fun tradition we have started.

I must confess that this soccer wife loves to watch Jackson dance with the Just Dance 3!  My 3 year old can move!

I must confess that my baby likes to have play dates with our huggies diaper box.  We started using this box to file papers for 2012 and Kiptyn has very much enjoyed having another baby in the house to babble with!

 

I am loving some personalization items, I do confess!

Stay tuned for more confessions from this soccer wife...

Now & Then

Then...April 2011

Now....April 2012

Your name might be Jackson...

Your name might be Jackson if you eat a late night snack, with miss matched jammers, in your baby brother's bouncing seat. Yep, your name might be Jackson...

Spring Pictures

The boys had their first pictures done together at school a few weeks ago. I thought they turned out really cute and of course bought all of them! :) I couldn't resist! Could you have picked out which one not to purchase?!

Snow Day

A tad late on posting our snow day pics, but better late than never.

Jackson soaked in every last second he could of our 24 hr snow! It as a bit of a challenge rotating on Josh and I being outside with him and then inside with Kiptyn but we were both able to play with J in the snow. He loved it and we were so glad he got in one snow day this year!

Kiptyn enjoyed watching his brother from our front door.

Had to bundle him up for 2 seconds to get a picture of his first snow.

After playing outside we got the boys all snuggled up and enjoyed some hot cocoa and a short movie.

Love that we had at least one good snow this year, but definitely hoping that it is over! Ready for spring!

Confessions of a soccer wife

I must confess I did have butterflies in my stomach today!

It was our first game and it was at home! Getting the boys and I dressed in our Spartan attire made me a proud soccer wife!

Boy do we love this coach!
Jackson pulled up a chair and Kiptyn's stroller to get a front row shot of the game. He is literally up against the fence!

I also must confess I am SO blessed with family. They are some proud soccer moms! I'm continually thankful to have help during the games. I thought having 2 kids this season I wouldn't get to watch any of the game but I had so many hands to help! Thanks moms!

Kiptyn's first High School ball game! He did amazing!

Game ended in a tie 1-1. Still working hard and looking forward to a great season! Go Spartans!

Kiptyn Diaries - 6mo

Hello all,

Kiptyn here, and guess what! I am 6 months old now! I'm getting to be quite a big boy.

-I got a good checkup from the doctor. I weigh 15.5 lbs now and still have a little eczema.
-I'm still rolling over and scooting in circles now. Trying to get the whole crawling thing down.
-I'm eating stage 1 foods and boy do I love me some fruit.



-I love to babble. Especially saying Dada, momma, and bubba!



-I can sit up all by myself and play.

-I have experienced my first snow. I got bundled up just to go outside for 1 minute! Mommy made me watch Jackson from inside where it was warm.

-I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Johnny Jump-up! It's my happy place!

Being a baby is so much fun!

Til next time,

-Kiptyn
