A couple of great events happened over the last week, so let’s jump into it.
First off, no, the baby hasn’t arrived, but here’s Laura at 9+ months, ready for the baby to arrive. Any time now.
Last Saturday August had his Cub Scout pack’s pinewood derby. He came in 1st place for his den. Here is his car (in the center lane) coming in first in one of his heats. His care came in first each of the three heats he ran in.
Here he is getting is medal. I have his WEBELOS uniform done (finally) but we were in a rush to get to the race he didn’t put it on. Then when we got there, despite being only a couple blocks from our house, we didn’t go back and get it before his race.
Now it’s on to the district pinewood derby meet.
Later that day Déla had her first gymnastics competition of the season. Her team came in first. I’m absolutely certain it was partially due to my daughter’s performance. I say this not just as her dad, but as a guy who watched a lot of kids falter, especially on the floor routine which she NAILED.
She was absolutely solid on the beam as well. I wish I could have gotten a picture of it.
Oh, and this morning Xavier dressed himself.
