Spring!

We have had lots of excitement in the past month. Oliver attended his first Sporting KC soccer game. He loved it and actually watched way more of the game than Matt and I thought he would. Man, that stadium is just awesome! The next day was Easter and Oliver was very pleased with what the Easter Bunny left for him.

Easter morning happy face

And then there is the lovely Easter afternoon sad face. No idea what's going on here.

We traveled together as a family to Indiana (Mangas side) two weekends ago and Oliver got to spend some time with Grandma Mangas, Grammy & Grandpa, Aunts, Uncles, and lots and lots of BIG cousins! I would name them all but I don't want to forget anyone! That side of Matt's family has the tallest genes (especially for having such a short great grandma). :)
I had to leave the Union City, IN/OH clan to attend a work conference in Indianapolis so I missed the rest of the visit, but I know Oliver is already asking when we are going back so I take it he had a good time!

Catching a fish from Uncle Everett and Aunt Emmy's pond

Happy to catch it but don't ask him to touch it!

We will be having lots of visitors coming to see us in the month of May: OSU friend Heidi; Nana, Papa & Aunt Jennifer; and my law school roommates - I can't believe it's been 10 years since we graduated from OU Law! And then Oliver's birthday party is only a month away. Crap! I should probably start planning that, eh?!
'Til next time, my loyal bloggees!

Take Me Out To The Ballgame

We took Oliver to his first Royals game the other weekend - along with 5 other families. The kids all had a great time. There wasn't much game watching on our end b/c Oliver loved hanging out in the Kid Zone (or whatever it's really called). They even had a mini-K baseball field where you got to swing at 5 balls and then run the bases. Oliver killed all of his balls, but he really loved playing int the outfield the most. It took an ice cream bribe to bring him off the field.
Next weekend brings our first family Sporting KC soccer game. Hopefully that will be a success too!
