Crazy Cats

Luna isn't allowed in the basement, so she sits in front of the door and sadly meows every time Little Man goes downstairs to shower or workout.  She sits there until he comes back up and pets her. 

Stella is always in the middle of anything going on. She particularly likes to show up when there are decorations involved. 

Luna occasionally likes to join morning scripture study as well.

Boom!

 BB was awarded the game ball tonight for his amazing at bats.  Two of them were huge hits way into the outfield.  He was smiling big all night.  He loves baseball so much!

Rim Rock

 Little Man popped up on the BVN Cross Country social media this week.  He ran the dreaded KU course today.  It was a lot hotter than they were expecting, but the team powered through.

Treble Festival

 Little Lady got to be part of a Treble Festival this week.  She had a lot of fun.  

 

Stacking Blocks

I put together one of the quilt tops from the blocks I requested this Summer from Do.Good Stitches.  It is made up of reds, blues, and purples.  

Cerebral Cortex Not Fully Developed

 Every once in a while I have to remind myself it's not his fault his cerebral cortex is not fully developed yet.  I do get worried that he's supposed to be on his own in a year sometimes though.  He showed up for his senior yearbook pictures in a random Addidas shirt and shorts.  I asked him if he noticed everyone else dressed up, and he said he had, but that he didn't think much of it.  Gratefully, they had a makeup day, so we paid another $10 to redo it in his suit.  He still didn't do his hair, but at this point I'm just grateful he's in a suit.  The funny thing is he didn't think to bring a dress shirt and tie with the suit.  I had to mention it and bring it to school for him.  It's all good.  

Mr. Loud

When he's not out on the baseball field he's typically at home singing at maximum volume.  The poor guy gets told to be quiet several times a day, because he doesn't have a quiet bone in his body.  This particular morning he tried playing checkers by himself, so he wouldn't be tempted to wake BB up.  It only lasted for a little while though, and then he headed straight to the piano and woke up the rest of the family.  There were a couple of very unhappy older siblings. 

National Merit Commendation

We got a fun notification this morning.  Little Man said it feels a little pointless since he doesn't continue on in the process, but there is going to be a banquet and a banner to honor his achievement, so I guess he at least gets food out of it.
