Life Revolves Around Kids

For those of you without kids, do not be alarmed. I still have my time, but lately the kids activities have ruled our house. But it's really cool. Can't tell you how exciting it is to see the kids play sports, and do well. Very rewarding.

Noah has finished the regular season of Little League. Mets are 12-2, and headed to the Tournament.

Lexi has started soccer and baseball, with her first games this week!

Hailey, as mentioned once before, is too young for sports. Her pride and joy is her baby doll collection. Before you know it, I'll be coaching her in 4 year old T-Ball...wow, just realized it's next summer!!!

Baby Hamster update

I promised the kids I'd give all of our FM 106.1 listeners an update on Hamster Baby. They are still deciding on a name, but here it is...

I'm hearing Lia and Gabrielle (since mom is Vanessa, after Vanessa Hudgens, who plays Gabrielle in High School Musical).

Mom and baby are doing well, and will be separated soon :(

Soccer, Baseball and Baseball...Oh My!

...just when I thought life was getting easier, the kids get involved in extra curricular activites!

My 6 year-old Lexi (that's her on the left), is on a soccer team AND baseball team this summer. It's nice for her to get attention, since my boy is in Little League, and gets the most sports attention.

I'm sure I'm like you, if you've got kids! She practices twice a week, with games twice a week as well. In addition, we've got the Mets in West Allis Little League for Noah.

By the way, the baby hamster is doing great. Mom built a new nest for the fuzzy little guy. Welcome to Radar's Hamster Farm!

Vacation Countdown

I'm sure everyone does this...the countdown to vacation. Few weeks, and I'll be able to chill.

I was barely home this weekend. Helped a good friend move, went to my niece's b-day party (out of town) and then had a cool Father's Day with the kids at my in-law's.

Vacay is only 2 weeks away. I won't think about how fast it will go, as time off always flies by. But it will be nice when it gets here!

Happy Vacation to those who are on it right now!

More Kid stuff!

Check it out...my son Noah, was playing some sort of game at home. The kids make up their own storylines, and use all sorts of stuff around the house for props. A sortment of pillows become a cage, the CD system in our (w)rec room is a communication system..you get the picture.

One episode had Noah hunting for "hippies". I heard him say, "I'm on the lookout for hippies."

I asked him if he knew what a hippie was.

He replied, "Yeah. Like a caveman. Long hair and beard."

I know, you're laughing as hard as I was right now.

Baby Hamster

My daughter's hamster Vanessa, just had a baby. Just one. How can this be, I wondered? The thing was "8 weeks old", according to the pet store. We had it two weeks, and she built a nest. We looked in the nest, and saw at least one baby.



I googled some info on hamsters, and found I have to wait 6 weeks before weaning the baby. The pet store said they'd take the baby, or babies back...but, it looks like Lexi will give the baby to her little sister, Hailey.

Hey, a new blog!

Back by popular (my wife's) demand, it's Radar's blog. Themoocrew.com had my blog for a while, but with everything we need to have on the site, I wasn't able to post all my stuff!

It's back, and I can tell ya about my kids activities. WOW! I thought, "the older they get, the easier it is." Nope.

Noah, my 8 year old, plays for the Mets in the West Allis Little League. Check him out after getting the game ball after his first game (way to go #5)!!

I'll have pictures of Lexi (who is 6, going on 15) and Hailey (who thinks she is 10, but she's really 3). Lexi will be in soccer AND baseball. Hailey will be in T-Ball next year. But, I'll get some action photo's of her!
