Soccer

Anybody who knows me knows that lateness is a huge pet peeve of mine. Since Lucas has joined us, I haven't been on time for anything at all. It's making me nuts! As hard as I try and as well as I THINK I prepare ahead of time, we're late every single day. Today, I was on my own with both boys and I was super paranoid that somehow we were going to be insanely late for soccer or miss it all together. So, I woke up extra early to prevent it from happening. I was successful in getting both boys fed, dressed and ready to go by 8:30am. The only problem was that soccer didn't start until 10:30. Better early than late right? Hopefully at some point I'll be able to figure this out!
Rather than sit around wasting 2 hours, I decided to head over to soccer anyway and let Ryan play on the playground. I know everyone now knows about his obsession with knights, well he also has a slight obsession with pirates. Needless to say, he loves this particular playground.

Ryan had his coach all to himself for the first half of the class. He was in heaven soaking up all the attention and praise!

After soccer we headed home for some down time. Ryan constantly wants to watch Go Diego Go. We have to carefully monitor his Diego time. I let him watch his favorite episode so he could help Diego rescue a blue morpho butterfly while I made lunch. He immediately asked if his brother could watch Diego too. Yes, I know 8 weeks old is a bit young for tv, but Ryan wanted to teach him about blue morpho butterflies...how could I say no?!?

As you can see, Lucas does not share Ryan's passion for Diego, butterflies or tv for that matter.

He was much happier just getting some attention
