Harry always keeps me on my toes. He always wants to know what day of the week it is and often asks, "Is it Monday today?", etc.
Anyway, this is the conversation I had with him in the car today:

H: Mom, is it tomorrow?
M: No, today is today.
H: When will it be tomorrow?
M: Well, tomorrow will be tomorrow.
H: Nu-uh, cause tomorrow you will tell me it is today.
M: Every day is today and tomorrow just describes the next day that's going to be coming.
(At this point he was quiet for a while then he said in a sad voice)
H: It's no fair that we never get to have tomorrow happen.

I am still confused at that conversation. He cracks me up!

Mitchell found out tonight that he was going to be a 49'er! (He really wanted to be on the Viking's team cause they have won the last 2 Superbowl's. But I am excited he is a Niner because they practice at the closer high school!)
He worked so hard this week and I am so proud of him! We will see how he does when he is in full pads!

I took Mitchell to go get his physical today for football. It's the first time that he had to do the whole "turn your head and cough" experience. When the doctor told him what was going to happen he looked surprised at the doctor, then at me and then back at the doctor. I realize now that I should have prepared him a bit for that experience. Oh well, I guess that is what you get for being the oldest boy....you have to go through everything first.

I can't believe how quickly the cost of football is adding up:
Registration 200
Cleats 40
mouth guard 15
practice jersey 15
Girdle ? (haven't bought this one yet)
white t-shirt for try-outs 5
New water bottle 10
And who knows what else we will end up buying by the time football actually starts.
CRAZY! This is why we do only one sport at a time in our house. (Well at least while Harry and Grant are still small and can get away with it)

I bought Mitchell his mouth guard for football. (He has try-outs on Monday.)
He has worn his mouth guard ALL DAY today. Literally
Well this evening we went over to one of my dad's rental houses tonight to check on something for him. The key we had didn't work and so we were trying to see if we could get in some how.
Mitchell turned to Matt and said, "Don't worry dad. I have my mouth guard in. I can break the door down."
Hahaha.....apparently having a mouth guard in makes you have super powers!

The last few weeks have been very busy. Mitchell and Harry have been both been taking swim lessons. They have both been doing great and making a lot of improvements! (Maybe I will post photos later...i'm too tired to go find my camera now)

We have been playing outside every evening with the kids and thier toys and bikes. The weather has cooled down a lot and so it has been pleasent every night. This is one of the best things about summer. The long fun nights.

Paige has only two swim meets left....this Saturday and next week. It has been a lot of fun to see how much she has improved the last few months. I am so proud of her. Mitchell starts football in a week or so. I am really worried about him and how he is going to handle it. He usually surprises me so I guess we will wait and see.

Matt and I are still both really busy with the youth in the church. It keeps us on our toes and we are thankful for the oportunity to be with them.
