a very important day

Flashback to 2008 for A.'s first game.  High hopes for a 8/8 season.

9/11 was not only a day of remembrance for us, but it was also a VERY important day in our home.  That's right, year after year we don our Redskins gear and get our hopes up for the possibility of the season.  Yes, we are typically discouraged after...game 4, but the first game of the season is still a big deal.  So, 9/11, K enjoyed his first Redskins game EVER complete with chili for us and our friends and sweet potatoes for him.  He played with some toys, checked out his surroundings, and smiled in typical K fashion.  We watched and cheered and were pleasantly surprised with the number of loud claps that B. gave.  Hopefully, but not likely, this will continue for all of K's first season.

K and baby SL take a break from their riveting game of bat at the block for a picture

Practicing for their future football careers.  Its simple, K will block for baby SL with a smile on his face.

A. is finally big enough for her very own jersey.  We had to go with the Kohl's options though...

A. and her brother from another mother.

I think this was right after we calmed K. down after his startle from Daddy's LOUD clap
