Congrats @UTfball68

Picked up the 19 month old after church with the grandparents. Told her we were going to see mommy and the baby...her response was ‘Millie book, Millie book, etc etc’...she loves reading and decided she wanted to read to her new sister.

My boys play USSSA 11U travel baseball and they are on the same team. They are 11 and 8. And yes the 8 year old is good enough he made the 11U team on his own merit and has only struck out twice in like his last 26-28 games.
Their team isn't to shabby. They are #1 in the state and #8 in the nation

My son is almost 2 and is a talking machine, he loves new words. Like most kids his age, he repeats everything he hears... My wife was out of town most of last week for work so it was just the guys. Thurs night a stray dog kept coming into our yard about every two hours and my lab would bark and growl at it. Id wake up, hear goose making a commotion and go yell at the stray and it would run off. I was going to shoot it with my old bb gun around 4 when I'd completely had enough but the gun wouldn't pump up. At 6 when I was getting my son ready for daycare goose (my lab) started back up. In frustration I said out loud "I'm going to shoot that dog" Clifton immediately said "shoot goose" I quickly said, "no I'm going to shoot the bad dog". Again, not really thinking about what I was saying I was so frustrated. Well that was it. All the way to daycare he kept saying "daddy shoot bad dog" nothing I could say would make him stop saying it. I'm sure the ladies at dacare heard that 100 times on Friday

could have been worse, my sons first words where not anything to brag about.....

When you ask your 19 month old if she’s ready for bed and to say her night time prayers and she goes forehead to forehead with your newborn for about 30 seconds, kisses the newborns head, then sits up and says ‘Mehmen’ (Amen).

Thank you Cyd! Damn right i'm proud of my youngest daughter.
My wild child has found her stride.

I most likely suck as a human life form in all other aspects, but i am a good Dad!

Got a Red Ryder for Christmas. I cut down the stock to fit him. A few "range" sessions later and he's getting pretty good. He will be 5 in a few weeks .

Used to be, one of my least favorite things was when I was force fed pics of other people’s kids...but as a parent now, I get it. My oldest turned two today, and being her dad is the coolest thing ever. Potty trained, counts to 10 in english and Spanish, loves her books, my trucks have become ‘her tucks’, and her vocabulary is growing at a ridiculous rate every day. The things I’d do for this little girl...

Poor girl is gonna go blind with all that orange in her face all the time.

True story...orange is her least favorite color...and a couple times a week I’ll get hit with a ‘no daddy, no orsh’

My little girl is 10 months old and just amazes me everyday. Never knew I could love something so much.

My son #56 starting first flag football game of the season.

To my surprise he can throw a football great. Leading the runners and right into the players hands between defensive players

I asked were he learned that and he said dad we play football everyday at recess

At least he is learning something at school

 

[UTfball68]

Dunno how to share a FB video...but it goes something like this:

Wife: what are you doing hunny?
2 yo: praying
Wife: what are you praying about
2 yo: I’m just happy

No pic but working out in the shop tonight and little man insisted that he bring me a bottle of water and check on me before he went to bed. I swear every time I turn around he's learned something new or does something to surprise me.

That must be a nice feeling. Mine just goes to bed and says "I love mommy. I don't love Daddy."

Man, I hate I didnt know about his Eagle ceremony. I love going to those and love supporting new Eagles.

It varies by the day. When I go wheeling without him I usually get shunned for a day or two.

Well at least you know that's just to get a rise out of you. Recent trend with my little, precious, angel from God 'Mommy pretty, Daddy ewwww'. I'm not sure if it's because she wants to get tickled or if I'm really that ugly.

Our daughter doesn’t get in much trouble at school. Teacher called my wife an next thing I know my wife is in tears. I was just thinking, crap she’s done some shit I would have done at her age. But no, the teacher had been out for a week cause of a death in the family(her grandma). When my daughter got to school she run up to her teacher to tell her how much she had missed her. Then asked how her grandmother was. Teacher told her that sadly she had died. The teacher said with out missing a beat Rylee said “I’m sorry for your grandma. But she’s in heaven with my granny an they are watching us with Jesus.” Teacher called to brag about how great Rylee had made her feel an that she didn’t expect all of that from a 6 year old.

we didn't get a picture but when asked to come forward, Eagle Scouts lined the entire front space of the church...wall to wall. Most from this pack a one other local one, impressive for sure. Hate I didn't know. I'd definitely shared the date.
