Basketball Game

Tyler starts our long journey into the wonderful world of school sports. Sheridan Elementary 5th and 6th grade students get to play sports throughout the year. The basketball season started in January and they had their first game tonight against Whitman Elementary. Tyler had a blast and it was fun for us to watch him as well.



They had quite a few 6 minute games that they rotated all the boys into. Tyler got to play in 3 of the games. He did a great job. It is amazing the different sizes of all the kids out there. Tyler had to guard mostly kids twice his size, so that was a bit scary for him, but other than that he had a lot of fun. We are looking forward to many years of sports in the future.


Tyler is Green #27 in the video

He is an official WALKER

Okay, so all of the kids (minus 1) have been early walkers, walking before 1 year old. Tyler was probably the earliest at about 10-1/2 months old. Well, that is before now. Jameson started taking his first steps just a week or so after he turned 9 months old. By 10 months old he is just walking all over the place and getting into everything. HE IS CRAZY!!!!!!

He definitely keeps us all on our toes. It is so cute seeing such a little guy toddling all over the place. He has the Frankenstien stiff leg walk down pat and enjoys chasing after all his brothers and sister. I am convinced that he thinks he has to keep up with them all, so that is why he has been so fast at all this stuff. He is determined to do everything they are doing. LOL. Here is some video of his walking from just the other day. Enjoy.

The boys sledding

We decided to make a backyard sledding run for the kids to enjoy. It is small, but they had a blast going down the little hill we made.

There is just a bit of a slope to our backyard, so after piling snow up we were able to make a nice little run for the boys. Tyler and Jacob really had some fun. Here is some video of them going down.

Towards the end, Tyler added a few bumps and was trying to catch some air while sledding. He had a great time.

Christmas Carols from Abby and Daniel

Jim won a digital video camera at his work Holiday party last night. I have had a bit of fun playing with it today, so I thought I would try my hand at uploading videos to blogger.

This is a video of Abigail and Daniel serenading us with Christmas songs. She loves to sing and he loves to do anything she is doing...

I love how she has started to bow when she is done performing. I am not sure where she picked this up at, but it is just too cute. And in typical Daniel fashion, we get a little push at the end. I hope you enjoyed the video and look forward to more fun videos of the kids.
