Dolly with her Dolly

Sadie has loved playing with her new American Girl Bitty Baby. She "reads" to her, feeds her a bottle, and does not want her to have a "wet" diaper on. Problem with that is that she only came with one diaper, so she doesn't want her to put it back on. Sadie was real creative with the baby's name and named her One. Yep- you read right, One. :-)

We haven't even given her our presents. My mom gave her the doll and the starter set as well as two adorable matching duffle bags- denim with kelly green polka dot ribbons on them. Jeff and Chele gave her an adorable princess stuffed doll, and Spot/girls gave her a purse with lots of accessories in it. She has been having birthday prizes for about a week now. Ryan's family is coming over Tuesday night so she'll get even more then. It must be fun turning 2!

The week with my parents flew by! We were busy the whole time it seemed. Saturday morning we all went to Cobe's soccer game- he played extremely well. He sat out the first quarter, played defense the 2nd quarter and the score was still 0-0. Third quarter he went in as forward and scored 3 goals!!! He was amazing to watch- quick as lightning. I love watching his little legs go. He is always so self-conscience about being so small, but I think out on the soccer field, his being so little really pays off. Their team stayed undefeated the whole season which was the second season in a row that he was on an undefeated team. He got a taste of different medicine today though- he was asked to go out for a travel baseball team. Well, today was the first day of playing. Ryan took him and said he was completely overwhelmed. They played with the 10 year old team as well, so he felt quite intimidated. I felt sure he would throw the towel in, but he surprised me tonight and asked when his next practice was. I think he may feel better when it is the true 8 & Under team playing others the same age, but I feel like he has a different road ahead of him in that sport.

Anyway, after Cobe's game on Saturday, mom, me, Brooks and Cobe went to Dunham's to get Cobe indoor soccer shoes b/c that starts back up Tuesday night (and of course his ones from last year don't fit!!), and Brooks got a bat out of the deal. Mom and I got shoes at Younker's and then headed to Sam's Club to print pictures and get steaks for dinner. We came home and Ryan grilled filet mignon's and we had a great dinner. Cobe and I went to Sunday School this a.m. while the others stayed home. Sadie and I took mom and dad to the airport and then went on a walk. She stayed at Lisa's while I ran to work to do a few things and to Walgreen's. Now everyone is in the bed sleeping peacefully resting for another busy week! BSF tomorrow night, soccer and Sadie's little party Tuesday night, church Wed. night, soccer again Thurs. night. At least indoor soccer games are played during the week and our weekends are free of games once again. I am off to shower and hit the sack as well. Tootaloo!
