The Fish Family: Football Season Saturdays

Football Season Saturdays

Even though I got to actually watch more of the games before we had kids, our football Saturdays are pretty fun with the boys. Carter wears his "game day outfit" (Peterson jersey, OU football pants), he gets out 2 footballs, and his helmet to complete the look. At some point in the day Jon gets out the bouncer. Today, I tried out the "dive onto the slide and into the pile of pillows" move like Jon and Carter do, but my elbows got burned on the slide and required band-aids! Even Cleo gets in on the action and seems to have fun.

things I love about my boys

*when I lay in bed with Carter some mornings, and he likes to read books or play with my phone. But, the phone or flashlight is too bright in his dark room, so he puts on his sunglasses
*the way Graham snuggles his head on my shoulder and sticks his arms straight down when he's tired or when he first wakes up
*Graham screams like crazy while I'm changing him, but as soon as we're finished, he's completely fine
*Carter's negotiating skills
*now that Graham can stand, he'll lean against me with his head and put his arms straight down at his sides
*when Carter plugs his ears as we walk past "the loud store" (Abercrombie) at the mall
*the way Carter tests his limits (although not always cute at the moment)
*Graham pretty much smiles all the time
*sometimes when people ask Carter, "How are you?" he'll reply, "I have a cough."
*the way Graham gets excited to see Cleo, our dog
*Carter's sense of humor
*Graham's laugh when I kiss his neck
*when Carter starts a sentence with "Can you 'magine if..."
*how Graham grabs my face with both hands
*the way Carter sleeps with a corner of his blanket in his ear
*Although he speaks really well, some of Carter's words crack me up: burger (booger), gril (girl), bumember (remember), and I can add an "S" to almost any word I don't understand to make sense of it
