One more week!!!!!!!

Yes, that's right...one more week until we hit the beach! I have never been so ready for a vacation. It is COLD in New Hampshire and I'm sick of winter clothes. On a serious note, it will be really good to have some time with Shawn to relax and to be removed from our everyday obligations to just be together. We'll get to run on the beach, on of my favorite things to do in South Beach, read without interruption, lay in the sun, the list goes on and on.

The boys finished their first session of soccer today. Grady is definitely the more aggressive player, something we knew already, and Conner really enjoyed the experience. They'll be doing at least one more session and then summer sports will begin. Conner wants to play "ball with a bat" - baseball - so we'll be signing him up for T-ball soon and also looking for a soccer team as what they are doing now is more skills focused.

Conner has been working on his drawing a lot more and drawing what he sees rather than what he knows. This is a concept my high school students often times had a difficult time grasping. What a little genius he is! A chip off the old block...hehehe. Grady, on the other hand, has been working on catching. He carries balls around and practices throwing them up in the air and catching them. His cake this Friday - Grady turns 2 on March 4th - will be in the shape of a football. He's going to love it. It is amazing how different brothers can be.

Have a great week. I doubt I'll be able to post birthday pics before we leave so you'll just have to wait until we return!
Conner, Grady, and I went to the Children's Museum in Boston with our neighbors last week. The kids all had a great time and it was nice to get out with some friends.
