Gwyn's 1st T-ball Game + Visit from Cousins!

Sweet little Gwyn had her first t-ball game.  She looked so cute, my little left handed 1st baseman!  She also had her first practice this week...it started off a bit disastrous as a ball hit her in the shin, which lead to her crying...there is no crying in baseball!  Ha!  Jacob got her to laughing and soon she was throwing the ball to him...she ended up having fun...here she is "baseball ready!"
Getting serious!  She was more excited about her pink shoelaces for her cleats, her pink glove and getting to wear sports clothes...

And so it begins...Jacob had a game at 9 am on Saturday and Gwyn had one at 11:30 am...Jacob was acting a little cool for this picture:


 Getting ready to bat with non other than a pink bat!
 She gets a hit and runs to first...
 Jacob at his first at bat of the season...he got 3 hits this game and made an out while playing 2nd base.
We had an exciting week as Rick, Sue, Stacy and our precious cousins Elijah and Hannah came for a visit.  The kids were in love...especially Gwyn and Jacob...Annie likes them, but I think was a bit jealous!
 Watching over Elijah:
 Poor Stacy...my little munchkins could not get enough of those babies:
 Out for a walk while Jacob was at baseball practice.
 Gorgeous weather here in Houston...the kids love walking up to the park behind Jacob's school:
 We all played 4 square, except for Annie:)

 Sweet Annie with her Daddy:
A couple of videos from the week...a bike ride to the park:



A video from Gwyn's gymnastics:




He did this to himself, but I didn't stop him:)
 Cub scouts food drive, we went door to door and collected cans of food.  Jacob was so excited when they gave popcorn, then remembered it wasn't for him, ha!
 Spring pictures for Gwyn and Annie, I love that they take pictures of the siblings together:
 Cowgirl Gwyn:

 Another fiasco with our Matrix Ninja squirrels who have built a nest outside of our bedroom window in the guttering...Brian caught them (2 of them!), sprayed them with a water hose, then let them go after he took their nest out of our gutter.  Apparently, they really like peanut butter sandwiches!
Jacob wrote a book all about going to the Rockets game...I thought it was funny how on the back of his book he wrote "about the author" and told about himself, his family and that this book is dedicated to my Dad.  So Sweet!
 I love getting notes from Gwyn and Jacob...Jacob said that I am epick (epic!).  Love that kid!  I asked Gwyn if she was calling me Taco Mommy, she said, no, that says To:)
Funny things the kids said this week:
Jacob (as we are reading a book):  What is a VCR?
