Later in the afternoon:

With 3 kids – fun!Meeting a friendly dog:Final front porch result:

It was opening day for Arden Park Little League.While trying to find Thais or Avery, I heard, “Hi, Grandma Arlete!” Leo! – cousin of Sophia/Avery/Carson. A week or so ago, I heard the same shout at the grocery store. Leo was shopping for dinner with his dad. Always a big smile and fun conversation.Avery will be on the Durham Bulls:There was SO much candy thrown from the floats. Kudos to these two who went after the bend-and-crawl pieces.Later in the day, Sophia played her last Upward basketball game:Mr Adorable:

Lenin helped Avery complete his homework.Carson loves to sing Happy Birthday and blow out the candle – again and again. A straw helped.

While Thais visited a friend in Los Angeles and Lenin coached Sophia’s basketball team, I took Avery to his game.Halftime:

Carson learned to fold his arms:At indoor soccer:

The best shot I’ve taken all season. Avery with a very good “goose” (the look of his arm after shooting) and he made the basket.Trying on Grandma’s glasses.

Rita, making lumpia, and Leah.Holly’s youngest, Brook Lyn:Carson LOVES to play with helium-filled balloons but definitely needs the long string to stay attached.Carson tried to blow out the candle but help was needed (but maybe not Avery’s help).Uncle Jeff and Uncle Connie taught Carson how to use a drill. Sort of.

Today, Carson found my tummy! Oh dear.
