Atta Boy!

Our little man loves himself some sports!  Playing... watching... even on the Wii... he takes what he can get! Thanks to used sporting goods stores, we have been able to stock our garage full of all kinds of gear so that he can play whatever his heart desires at any given moment.   And, if you ask him what he's going to play when he gets bigger, he'll say, "In college, I'm going to play..." and then proceeds to list pretty much every single sport you can think of... too funny. 

In February, John and I took him bowling for the first time. We used the bumpers, of course, but he actually bowled and only used the little ramp they provide a couple of times. He used a seven pound ball and played two full games... and legitimately beat me in both!

In mid-March, the boys were out and I got a picture text from John, it was of Preston... putter in hand... and a message that read, "DUDE... he got a hole in one!" A bit later, I received a second message indicating he'd gotten another! It was his first time playing! They went twice that week, golfing both 18-hole courses, and went again this week! It's time for the real driving range now!



I'm fairly certain that a set of clubs (used, of course) are in this kiddo's future!

 
On March 1st, John took Preston's training wheels off... and this is how he did!





(They're back on now... but that's because I want them on! I'm too nervous trying to keep him safe while also keeping Gracie safe in her chair! It's just a matter of time, though, as he wants to practice with Daddy every chance he gets!)
