To Play or Not to Play...that is the question.

Well, here we are again...another soccer game...another non-soccer player. I am thinking of this as "experience" for Jack to see what team sports are all about. Maybe he will just observe this season and jump right in next season. Wishful thinking!!! This is my little sweetie pie in his uniform about to take the field...or not.





















































But this is actually what we got...and notice he is not even FACING the field!!!

Last night we went to see Mason perform/sing at the PTO meeting at school. 1/2 the first grade performed. I could not get very good pictures because of...well...you know my camera "situation". So I got some video that with fingers crossed, will show up on this stinkin blog.

Now, let's end this with a little "Jack Story", shall we? Jack and I had a standoff in the daycare parking lot today. As most of you know, he has had a few problems in the conduct department at school. My spirited little boy. HA! If he is on Green, that is good, Yellow - not so good, and red is REALLY bad. Well, I am thankfull to say that most days are green, but today was yellow. And for some reason, his afternoon teacher thought it was a good idea to let him pick something out of the treasure box. ??? What was she thinking? Anyway, he chose a wand of all things...because you know, he thinks he is a princess. Well, he ran out of the daycare to the car without holding my hand in the parking lot. Well, let's just say it was "game on" at that point. His stuborness agains mine. In the end I had to climb into the back of the van (in work clothes) and drag him out, looked around to see who was watching, and then pulled his pants down and gave him a spanking (as he is yelling I DON'T LIKE YOU MOMMY!), I then took him back into the dayacare so that we could give them BACK the wand that he picked out because I told him if I had to come get him, the wand was going back. I am a woman of my word! Then I put him in the wrestling hold to get him in his car seat. All the way home he SCREAMED "no" at me from the back seat while he was sobbing. After picking up Mason, we enter our neighborhood where we have this one house that has great big huge spiders on the side of their house (and I mean HUGE and real looking - ugh!!) that they pull out every year at Halloween. So, we are driving up to this house with Jack screaming/sobbing away and he stops long enough to say, just as normal as you please...no crying..."look at the spiders Mommy!" almost with a smile on his face. We pass the house and out comes the screaming and the sobbing. He is something!!!

It is a good thing he is so cute, otherwise he would still be locked in the closet right now! Hee hee! But just look at this face!

Is it bed time yet?!?!?! At least cocktail time?!?!
