Vista Pop Warner Junior Midget's Football- Griffin's First Game

Griffin, #70, worked hard all summer long during speed camp. He had daily practices at the start of the year. With his hard work he has been able to help his team win their first game against Escondido. Made some good plays. Played better after he was given the ball...







Notice Griffin's confused posture

Wait where is Griffin?


He is going to get the ball?

He didn't fumble!







Vista WINS!!

Lyra and I traveled to Owl Crossing Ranch for a quick visit to see my cousins, their new baby CeCe, and visit with my aunt Diane. Had a nice visit. Lyra's tiny personality really peaked this weekend. She had her first tooth break through (bottom tooth so hard to photograph). 

We all learned that Lyra loves half full soda or water bottles. She also enjoys sucking on fruits. Her favorites strawberries and raspberries; not much of a fan of blueberries. 
Traveling solo with baby on Southwest proved challenging when she is awake because she is such a wiggle monster. She slept all the way home which was nice. 

I forgot my license at home which proved to be a challenge leaving and returning. We had to go through extra security.  On the way home I had to get a pat down twice in private because I had "suspicious" substance on my hands. I think it was the Vaseline residue I had on my fingers from using it on the baby. It was a challenge to hold a baby and get felt up at the same time. Of course, Lyra was perfect and got lots of smiles and googly eyes from the female TSA agents. Its hard not to smile at such a happy baby.



We stopped for a quick bite to eat after the airport because Diane was starved. Baby attempted to relieve her tooth pain on a solid piece of bread. Little did we know a tooth was about to pop up that very day.

Baby Lyra loves to pound on objects, so why not learn the piano with Nana. 
Naptime is a difficult task for Lyra. Sleep is hard to find for mom.

She loves strawberries!





Yes, there are horse on the ranch but BearScout if more Lyra's size.

Holding Cece reminds me how small Lyra used to be not long ago.
