Catching up after a busy weekend.

     So, Leyton had a busy weekend.  We played outside almost all day Saturday and Sunday, moved landscaping rocks and put down mulch, and most exciting of all -  hunted for worms in the back yard.  We found a ton, and Leyton finally hit a milestone......he is no longer afraid to touch the worms!  In fact, he was digging them out by the handful and squeezing them.  It was so much fun to watch him; what a "boy"!  
     Leyton got a haircut this weekend, too.  Daddy trimmed it up, and he looks awesome.  After the haircut Sunday morning, we spent  some time at Costco eating pizza at 10:30 in the morning and then played over at Jack and Charlie's on the swingset.  Leyton had a chance to meet new baby Hila, and she was so tiny.  Leyton was amused for about 5 seconds, until he caught his eye on the swing and ran off to play.
     The one funny thing I did this weekend was watch the KC Roller Warriors for a Roller Derby bout at Municipal Aud.  It was part of a student function, and I have never experienced anything like it.  I would equate the crowd to that at a bowling alley (with maybe fewer teeth), and 24-oz. cans of Bud Light.  We sat on the floor next to the ring, and it was a quite a sight.  There was some fierce shoving and physical aggression.  They were some rough women!
    BACK TO LEYTON - his newest phrase : "Settle down."  It was so funny - but tonight - when we were outside playing in the backyard, Tiger was barking at the neighbors' dogs, and Leyton shouted, "Tiger, settle down." 
     TIGER had his one-year check-up with Dr. Reed tonight.  Daddy took him and brought back the following report:  Tiger was overweight by three pounds.  Moderate tartar build-up.  His eyes are starting to milk over, and his left ear has an infection.  Ear drops to be given twice daily for one week.  So sad.  Tiger is a broken mess right now.  He is sleeping soundly next to me, though, and he seems very content :)
