This young man and I shared something this weekend that I will forever hold on to. I'm damn proud to have him as our son.

That is truly amazing, I sure hope I get to share something like that with my kids some day, memory forever!!!

One year ago today we brought Nick home from the hospital. Hard to believe that he's already a year old (and a couple of days). Watching him waddle around the house, mimicking his mom and I leaves me with both an amazed feeling, and a bittersweet sense of sadness ... time is passing much too quickly.

Congrats to AG on a wonderful bundle of awesome. Life has changed, buddy. Get ready.

Our baseball season ended last night, 2 games away from the finals. Last season as an expansion team full of 7 & 8 yr olds, we missed the playoffs entirely. This season we were #3 in the league but lost to a great team last night. My son & 2 others are the only ones aging out & moving up to Little League, so they'll be a powerhouse next season. It was tough seeing how broken up the kids were, and I'll admit being down 5-0 made things tough to keep the kids motivated in the dugout, but watching them make a game of it at 5-3 was thrilling.

As someone who always swore up and down to my wife that I'd NEVER have the patience to coach, after doing it these past two seasons I can't wait to do it next year if his new team has room for me. Such a rewarding experience to do that with my son.

I coached youth baseball for 22yrs and thoroughly enjoyed every year. Met a lot of great people, and some not so great, along the way. I know several kids who I coached and played against that are playing in the minors right now and one who has been up for a while a couple of times. When I started coaching t-ball, never did I dream I would continue coaching for that long but with three boys I just had to do it. Enjoy your time and learn as much as you can about coaching. I would suggest have a meeting with the parents at the beginning of each season and gently lay the law down that you are the coach and if you need help on the field you will ask for it. Took me a few years to learn that

. Also be civil with the umps as most are great people, and I can say that I was never tossed from a game. I was asked to stay in the dougout once:bashful:. Good luck and have fun with it.

Our youngest was like that... Went from pulling herself up to walking. No crawling at all.....

Oh yeah and she is hell on wheels so watch out!

Nick went from a crawl to walking in the span of a couple of weeks and life hasn't slowed down since. Even things you think they'd have no interest in ... it's the first thing they gravitate to. You could have a hundred toys in a room and one steak knife ... before you know it, your child is doing their best Norman Bates impersonation.

My son's got the golf bug again and we played 9 Saturday and Sunday. Both days he drove the green from 80yds out on the last hole. I got it on video today

Best part is he wanted to play golf this weekend.

Son had three first birthday parties, lot of cake for a one year old. He loved it though.

Got this picture of one of his two wheeled toys ... the other is a tractor.

My 14 yo got all 4 of her wisdom teeth out yesterday. Seeing her hopped up on valium before she left was hilarious, she was walking around in a daze making random comments about how fuzzy everything looked. She wasn't so great after waking up though, which we kind of expected after she had some bad reactions when she was younger and had to be put under for her laser surgeries. I had a meeting and my wife said she was just dreadful. By the time I got home though, she was OK and I talked her into eating some pudding for dinner which made her feel a lot better.

She's due to have reconstructive surgery on her jaw in a few years, so her going through this now was good because now she knows what things will be like when she has that surgery when it comes to the pain management, meds, etc.
