Let's go Vikings!

Malique decided he wants to play football... I was not on board at first and was really concerned about his leg. Needless to say him and Daddy won that battle. I am glad now that we decided to let him play. He is having a great time and that is all that really matters. Keelan isn't old enough to play this year but I am going to let him try it out next year. Hopefully it goes better than I expect it to go.
Malique is playing for the Joelton Vikings. He plays on a 7-8 team and also a 5-6 team because of his birthday or something. I don't know or really understand it too much since this is a different league than we are use to playing in. They have different rules, policies and ways of doing things. He played in his first game 2 weekends ago. The 5-6 won and the 7-8 lost pretty badly. They had a jamboree this past weekend that they also lost. They held the jamboree at their own park and weigh in took longer than expected. The game was set to start at 9:00am and eventhough they weren' ready to play they started he clock at 9:00am and they didn't stat playing until there was only 6:00 minutes left in the first half/quarter. So the other team scored at the last minute and won. Not a big deal though it was just a jamboree. They don't have a game this weekend because of Labor Day. I am pretty happy about that. At least I will have this one Saturday to sleep in. Because it will not happen for the next too months AND it just so happens to be on a long weekend! Hell Yeah!

 

This is my baby at his first practice this season :)

7 months old!

I have been neglecting my blog! I have been so busy that I haven't had the time and when i do have time I just want to rest. Anyhoo...Xavier has started "crawling". It is actually more of a scoot right now but considering that face that I thought he would not crawl and would go straight to walking it says alot. However, he is walking too! Not on his own of course but he walks around while holding onto the furniture. I haven't got the chance to take his 7 month pictures yet. But I hope to do them this weekend seeing how he is almost 8 months old now. He has 3 teeth now too and has a pretty amazing personality. This was taken the other day :)

I started a new job 3 weeks ago. I got promoted to a Property Manager at another property within the same company. I am super excited about it and really love it so far. We are having to move next week also. But I think all is for the best and good things are happening.

Malique started school last week. We went ahead and enrolled him in school where we are moving to to o that he wouldn't have to transfer in a week. We was really nervous his first day. But this school was re-opening so I told him that everyone will be new there and he is awesome so I know that he will have no problem making plenty of new friends. And so far he loves it. He really loves riding the buds home. even though i have a heart attack everyday because I am so scared he will forget where to get off at.

I have got to remember to blog and take pictures of the things that I do so that I have something to blog about! I made a delicious no bake peanut butter pie the other day and took pictures of the 1st 2 steps and forgot to take a picture of the rest. I made a very tasty casserole with spaghetti squash that I intended to blog about and didn't take pictures of. I am trying to get better at this. I have some crafts coming up since we are moving that I will try to blog about.  am having a panic attack about having to paint over Xavier's murals that I painted on his walls. I'm not redoing them in the new apartment because I don't plan to be there long.
