Another T-Ball Season

Ethan loves baseball, and he is pretty good at it too! This is the third year that he has played t-ball and he has improved so much. Ethan is such a good hitter, and loves to go out and practice hitting with his Dad. He will hit a bucket of balls and will only miss a few.

What a stud!

Ciara was so good to play nicely with all the other kids at all the practices and games without complaining.

Ethan's last game!!!

Seth was the coach again and we had most of the same boys on the team. It was really neat to see how much the boys improved and began to really understand how to play the game. I love that Seth is so involved with the kids and what they are doing. Whenever he is home is is always doing something with the kids. He takes them to the park or the pool. He practices with them or reads with them and even takes them camping . I know that they are going to remember all the fun this that they did with their Dad when they are older!

The 2010 Rookies

My Little Angels

Our very sweet neighbor said that she would take professional baby pictures of Bella for a baby gift. I was so excited as I have never had professional infant pictures done of my other children. I got all my kids dressed up and our neighbor took some wonderful pictures of the kids and especially of Bella.

Take a look at them here: www.sarahguibord.com/baker

She also put some pictures on her blog: http://sarahgphotography.blogspot.com/

I just feel so blessed to be a mother to these three sweet angels!!!!

Baby Bella

Bella is already two weeks old. Here are some cute pictures that I have taken over the past couple weeks. She is so adorable and such a sweet and nice baby. She is so alert when she is awake, she is a good eater, and getting better at sleeping st night. I love being a mom especially to such a cute little baby!

This is Bella and the kids at one week old and I got her all ready to take her to church! Having another girl is so much fun!!!!!!

Ciara's Preschool

Ciara started preschool a week after Ethan started school. Ciara goes to the preschool that meets in the elementary school. We went over and met her teacher the day before and got to look around. The rest of the night and the next morning she kept saying she was so excited! I am so glad that she was looking forward to going to school. Ciara goes to preschool Monday through Thursday in the afternoons, and so Ethan and Ciara get done about the same time. It has been so weird to only have Bella home with me in the afternoons!

Everyday she gets so excited to go and when we get to the school she just goes right in and has done wonderful! Going to preschool will be so good for Ciara this year. She will have a chance to socialize and learn and get to be a big girl!

Ciara is so sweet, and getting so big. She has loved being a big sister and loves that Bella wears clothes and bows like she does. She has done great adjusting to a new baby. I can't wait for all that she will learn and do this year.

Our New First Grader

Ethan has started first grade and is loving it! All summer long he would ask when he was starting first grade. He was excited and picked out his own backpack, lunch box, and school supplies. After patiently waiting all summer he was excited to go.

Ethan started the week that we had Bella. So it was a little chaotic at first but now we are starting to get into a routine. First, we went and met his teacher Mrs. Bartholio and she is in a ward in our stake. She seems like a cute little teacher, and we have heard great things about her.

Then Friday was his first day!!!! He woke up so excited!!! He dressed and even wanted to take lots of pictures. Then while Seth stayed home with the girls I was able to take him to school. He got a little nervous waiting and standing in line but I knew that he would do great.

After what seemed like a long day to me, it was time to go get him. The first thing that he said to me when I saw him was that first grade is great and that he didn't even want to come home yet. I am so excited that his first big day of school went so well and it looks like it is going to be a fantastic year!
