MoHawks!

Billy's football team has made it to the playoffs. We are two games away from state and Billy told the boys he would shave his head and a mohawk if they won Quarter finals. Well they won and so Billy had to shave his head. Well Brant saw him doing it and the next day he wanted a mohawk too. Now he is not too sure about it. Slade did not want to shave his head, he just wanted to make a mohawk with gel. When Billy was done shaving Brant's head, he said that he flipped out and started worrying that people were going to think it was silly at school.  Hopefully he can just wear a hat and not worry about it.

Slade and the dentist

Slade went to the dentist today for the 1st time. The office is really cool and has video games, movies, check boards, toys, etc. He was really nervous. He had a loose tooth and he was afraid they were going to pull it. He did not have any cavities!!!

Basketball

Slade is now playing basketball. We are trying to get him in as many sports as possible so he can try them all. He had his first practice last night. He loved it! His coach is actually in person we went to high school with. I can't wait to see how he does.

He has had so much fun at practice. His favorite game is dribble tag. It is where you dribble the ball and try to swipe the ball out of other peoples hands. Brant loves going to practice, but he is sad he doesn't get to play with him. So he just stands around and watches or sits on his ball and pays close attention.

Turkey Trot 2014

Every year we run the turkey trot in Alito. The boys will run the 1 mile fun run with me, And then they will walk the 5K with my parents. It is such a fun time and a great tradition.

Picture changing

Brant has learned how to change the wallpaper on my phone. He found a picture of himself sitting on the toilet and put it as my back drop. He told me he loves this picture because it's a picture of him taking a dump...

We love to wrestle and box.

The other day we were flipping through the TV and boxing was on.  Brant got immediately excited and ran and got his boxing gloves. Now every night we have to have boxing fights. One person will ring the bell which is from one of our board games and then the other ones wrestle. The one that rings the bell also acts like a ref and will tell them to break it up if they start hugging too much or if one of them goes down they count... It is really cute, and it is all they want to do. 

Willie Duck

Slade has a fund raiser at school and for every few items that you sell, you get a prize. He turned the piece of paper in  that told he had sold one item and he got a little stuffed animal duck. It is from duck dynasty so it has this little beard. He carries it around at night and then he has started to sleep with it. He even made me give it a hug and a kiss before he went to bed. He even wrapped it up in a little blanket and had it watch TV.
