Last Weekend Games

This morning, we did a few workbook pages, then Brandon and Dave left for Brandon’s game. Peyton and I worked on telling time. She got into it, but she also got very frustrated. We walked to Brandon’s game, though Peyton was very reluctant. She had lots of spring in her step when we played a new game – “Guess the Princess!” She was even skipping, trying to keep up with me. We were early, as the game before us was still going on. We set up our chairs, and another dad was keeping score, relieving me from doing it. I thought I was having to do it, so I was sure to get there early. The team hung in there, but the most exciting part of the game was Brandon pitching again. He had a strike out even! This is progress. He is throwing side-arm, so we’re going to have to fix that. Dave is going to sign him up for pitching lessons, so he can learn the right way. As soon as Brandon was done, Peyton had her game. Dave took her while I escorted Brandon to get his snack shack. He chose a snow cone, which was perfect, as it was really warm out today. We headed over to Peyton’s game, and she was motivated to get a snow cone, too. I knew it was going to be rough on her, as the game started at 130pm. She had NO nap, NO food, and had already sat through Brandon’s game. She even hit without the tee, and got on base out right! Great way to end the season!! She went to get her snow cone, and then we hurried home to change into our swimming clothes. The team was meeting up at the local cabana club for the end of the season party. The kids were all in the pool, and ours joined them. The deepest is 5 feet in the long part of the L, then the short part was 9 feet. I went in with Peyton, who was trying her hardest to keep up with the big kids. I ended up playing with her away from the group, while Brandon hung in there with his peers. He had to tread water, and ended up scoring some flippers which helped him swim. I wasn’t worried about him until he ducked under the rope, and he was swimming around in the 6-9 foot area. Since it was so crowded, it was hard to watch both him and Peyton. Dave got him back in the main part of the pool, and then I ignored him again.  Peyton was jumping into the deep end of the pool, right in the mix.  She’s actually able to get to the wall again, but I just worried about the big kids getting in her way, and her freaking out.  Later, when it was just her, and I’d already dried off, I let her do it by herself.  I really didn’t want to go in and save her, but I was still watching her.  She’s really comfortable in the water now, and even in 4 feet of water, she can push off the bottom and get herself up to a back float.  Finally, she got out, and the kids both ate.  There was basketball and ping pong, too.  The kids ate a lot of strawberries, watermelon, oh, and chips.  Lots of chips. They went nuts with the chips.  Granted, we skipped lunch, so they needed some food in them.  We came home, and everyone showered up.We’re hoping for an easy night, as the kids are tired out.  We have another busy day tomorrow, but for now, the kids are watching Free Birds. Here are some pictures of the kids today:

One of Peyton’s teammates had her #4 in the stroller, asleep, before heading over to take pictures of her #2 playing on Peyton’s team.  Problem was the 5 month old wasn’t totally asleep when she put him down, and the cheering woke him up.  He was crying, and I rocked the stroller without success, and tried to play with him, and again, no luck.  So, I picked him up (something I don’t normally do, especially with those I don’t know well, but she’s really low key), and as soon as I did, he stopped crying.  She didn’t know he was up and out until after Yoav was up.  At this point, she saw me and was surprised he’d gotten up.  She said whenever I was tired, I could put him back, or she welcomed me to him as well 🙂  I took her up on the latter, and I held him the rest of the half-inning the kids were up.  Brandon wanted to come over and see what was going on, and he thought it was funny that he was asleep.  Peyton didn’t notice anything, and I’d put him down before she came over.  Dave looked up, and then he looked stunned, as if to check to make sure the baby wasn’t coming home with us.  Then, both parents warned the boys not to wake the baby up, and if they did, they’d have to put him back down.  Brandon backed away quickly!  Later, while we were watching Free Birds, Peyton crawled into my lap.  I held her like a baby, and I was telling her about Yoav’s baby.  She was curious and wanted to know what I’d done to get him back to sleep, how he fell asleep, how I held him, over my left or right shoulder, whether he played with my necklace, and whether he was right or left handed (of all things).  She even suggested I ask his mommy whether he were left or right handed.
