Red Socks... OR... Redsox?

When I first told Jensen he was going to be on the "Redsox" he said "no, I don't have RED SOCKS!"

Jensen Banks #6

1st game of the year!

As you can see the weather was quite NASTY to say the least. Actually, Jensen's game wasn't too bad. Jaden's last hour... UGLY, FREEZING and WINDY!

Jens up to bat with Coach Brock I love that he uses his tongue for EVERYTHING! He was having a blast! Funny that Jaden is "Banks #6 also"

"RUN, RUN...."

Playing first base gets EXHAUSTING,

so he took a break and sat with Coach Jake! YEA!!! Game over now, VICTORY RUN around the bases!

Getting ready to give a cheer to the other team.

" Wahoo!!!"

I am so happy we all agreed on putting Jensen in TBall this year, he is loving every minute of it. I hope he continues on to enjoy things as simple as baseball thru his ENTIRE life.

P.S. The highlight of the game... I was a little late because I was on another field watching Jaden. When I got to the TBall field Jens had not yet seen me and he was up to bat. While running to 1st base he got the BIGGEST SMILE, ran sideways and screamed "hi Mom" all the way there! Everyone loved it, and me... I'll NEVER forget it!

My little Indian...

SUPER, SuPeR bOwL!!!

Go GREEN BAY!!!!

So, I have to admit... I'm not a HUGE NFL fan, I prefer college football and ML Baseball but my favorite thing to watch is THE BACHELOR! lol! Then I have Jaden, the BIGGEST sport fanatic out there!

I decided in advance that I did not want to go anywhere for the Superbowl. Ben had to work and I had Jaden & Jack. Besides, I am a baby about being home on Sunday afternoon / evenings! I love being in my jammies and ready for bed by 5:00...NO joke... Anyway, about 5:30 I began to get a little sad. Here I was home watching the Super Bowl with No Friends and No junk food. All of a sudden something big happened in the game and Jaden went nuts! And that's when it hit me, this was right where I wanted to be!

Jaden has been 100% POSITIVE that Green Bay would WIN Super Bowl XLV, he was so sure that he placed a $5 bet with Grandpa Brad!

Little Jack fell asleep pretty early but not before he said "Mom, I know how to play football... you grab the ball, tackle everyone and touch your base!!!" It was the funniest! Anyway it ended up just being Jaden and I watching the game. Can I just say, this was the BEST Super Bowl I have EVER been part of! Jaden and I were a wreck when the Steelers decided to start playing. We were hoopin n hollerin and totally laughing at each other! But the funniest was watching Jaden stress about losing his $5.00. He kept saying, "oh man, I don't really have $5.00 to lose." When he caught me texting my Dad telling him Jaden was stressed, he flipped out! "I'm not stressed Mom, the Packers will win!" GeEz... pardon me! Anyway, he was right.

When they did win he said "Ha Ha, Grandpa was bragging all day that I was going to owe him five bucks and now, he owes me!!!" So, my Dad... just like his Dad... brought the $5.00 right over!

Thanks Jaders for making Super Bowl so fun! I love, love, love you!

Jackee Ju is SIX!!!

On January 13th, 2005 Jackson Brad was born. He weighed 8lbs 1 oz and was 21inches long!

Jack has the BIGGEST heart out of any person I have yet to meet! He tests us every chance he gets and he always makes us laugh!

Jackee,

Thanks for always being so sweet to me.

Thanks for never forgetting to tell me "I love you Mama, I missed you" when I get home from work!

I love when you get up in the mornings, just to sit and talk to me while I'm getting ready!

Your silliness is my favorite, you are developing the "Winberg" sense of humor and we all love it!

Thanks for choosing Jaden and I as your family way back when... and

Most of ALL... thanks for being MY baby!

I love you forever, I love you for always... Mom

NINE years... REALLY?

I can't even believe that my baby turned 9 this year. It really seems like yesterday that he was born. Sometimes I wish it were yesterday :)

From day ONE...

to day NINE!!!

Jaden is in the 3rd grade now! He loves writing in cursive and hates math! Right now he is playing Jr. Jazz basketball and hanging out with Friends every chance he gets. He loves making his Brothers laugh AND cry. He gives me a run for my money but I LOVE HIM TO DEATH!!!

Thanks Jaden Layne for letting ME be your Mommy!
