Last Sunday

Well last Sunday we went to the Arizona Cardinals vs Dallas Cowboys game. We had a good time. It was a good game with the Cardinals winning in over time. Tough loss for us Cowboy fans. The kids had a good time eating cotton candy, hot dogs, and peanuts. The stadium is beautiful and the good thing is that it has a retractable roof, so when it is 100 degrees outside, they close the roof and turn on the air. Here are some pictures during the game.





Amazingly Isis feel asleep during probably the loudest point during the game. As you can see the noise did not phase her one bit.

Michael

Michael had has second game this weekend. They got beat pretty bad. The team they played seemed to be very experienced and may have played together before. Mike's team is made up of a lot of first time players and the coaches have never coached before. They play 8 games and after the first 4 games the schedules are adjusted so that the games can be more even. The top teams will play each other and the bottom teams will play each other.
Mike got his braces off so here are a before and after picture.


As of right now he will be wearing a retainer for 6 months. We have an appointment coming up in a few weeks and they will have a better idea on how long he will actual have to wear the retainers. He got see through retainers so you can't tell he has them on unless you really look close.

Isis

Here is a couple of pictures of Isis. She has been doing cheer leading for the last couple of weeks. We tried to get her to play soccer but she wanted to do cheer. She has been learning several little cheers at the indoor facility here in surprise. As far as school goes, she has been working on here letters and numbers. We have parent teacher conferences coming up, so we will get a better idea of where she is at after that.


Here is a picture of Tiff and Isis. Isis is Mommie's shadow when Tiff is home. Where Tiff is you will find Isis.


Here is a picture of Isis' first ever stick man. She drew it all by here self. On the left hand she even got the number of fingers right.

Quick Hello

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I am currently at work so there is no pictures on today's post. I will post some new pictures this weekend.
Things are going good. Michael got his braces off last Thursday. He is also playing football now. He had his first game last Saturday. They lost 12 - 6 but Michael did well. He is considered the all star on the team and that is not me just talking. He is starting Defensive End and was named Defensive Captain so he calls all the plays for the Defense. He also plays on every special teams. This week he was named as starting fullback on offense so he will get to run the ball on Saturday. He has improved leaps and bounds over the last time he played football.
Isis is having fun learning cheerleading. She has a cute little uniform and pom-poms. She has been doing pretty good in learning her cheers. She has this little princes walk that she does and the coaches found it so cute that all the girls are now doing as part of the routine. Isis drew her first stick figure the other day all by herself. I will post a picture of it this weekend as well. I was amazed at how well she did because up until recently all her people seemed to resemble blobs and now she actually is using stick figures.
I will post again this weekend and will try to post more often so that there isn't a month between posts.
