T-Ball!

Leyton was in New Richmond T-ball this year, and had a really good season.  It was fun because this year he knew kids on his team and other teams from daycare and 4K.  It was also great to see his confidence grow as the season went on.  

Here are a few photos from the season:

This year the kids really started to get the hang of getting the ball and throwing it or getting to the plate to tag someone out.

Up to bat again:

Shaking hands with the other team:

He was so proud to get his medal at the last game! 

We were very fortunate to have friends at daycare that helped out with getting Leyton to t-ball at 5:30 every Tuesday.  Alex's (in the photo below) Mom Abby and I played basketball against each other growing up, and her Dad happened to be Leyton's coach! Alex and Leyton are daycare buddies.

Leyton is 6!

On June 17th Leyton turned 6 years old!  He was so excited to turn 

6, and I of course cant believe how fast these past 6 years have flown by.  

We celebrated his birthday with a pool party at Kelly and Dave's house, which has been what he asks for every year since they got the pool.  Thanks for having us, and to everyone for coming to his party!  

He was very excited about his Star Wars shirts:

He picked out this dragon cake, which turned out pretty cool, with the exception that it was about 50% frosting!

He was really surprised to learn that the eyes on the dragon light up:

Some of the cousins-  Ella, Cal, Luca, Leyton, Maggie, Lucy and Lauren:

He loved all of his presents!  He is really into Lego's, Star Wars, Ninja Turtles, still any type of craft/painting/coloring, and his Nintendo 3DS that he got for his birthday.

I failed at taking pictures of the kids swimming... not one of the birthday boy!
I did get this cute photo of Luca and Cal though.  They make me laugh every time they are together. They are really best buddies!

Fiona loves to swing lately.  Sometimes Leyton is nice enough to help push her ;)

On the night of his actual birthday (Tuesday) he had a t-ball game, which he thought was pretty neat.  We celebrated after the game at home with leftover cake.

Happy Birthday Leyton!
