Xander and Clare

Our neighbors gave Xander this awesome baseball bag for all his gear.
Kid's in heaven.

Clare has been coming with me on Saturdays
while I organize the preschool library.

Clare's class takes turns bringing the class pet "Cocoa the Koala"
home. She immediately introduced Cocoa to all her kitties.

And to her brother.

Heading to the last Mariners game of the season.

Watching Josh Lueke warm up in the bullpen.

X also wanted to check out the new memorial Dave Niehaus statue.

Touching the foul ball pole.

Last Thursday was probably our last summer-like day of the year,
so we met friends at a park in the morning, and then headed to our
neighborhood playground in the afternoon.

Waving goodbye to Xander at the bus stop.

X had to go to urgent care on Sunday because he lost hearing
in his left ear. No ear infection, but he's fine now.

He loved playing with this tuning fork the doctor used to check his hearing.

I was parent helper on Monday at Clare's preschool and got
to pull all the kids around the playground path.

At goodbye circle.
