Nisei Week Tourney

Tessho played in the Nisei Week Basketball Tournament this weekend. Tessho's second game on Saturday was against Willis so we got to see Debbie and Austin. Although we don't get to see each other as often as we would like, our boys seem to get along like no time had passed since the last time they got together. They ran around, passed the ball to each other, acted silly, ran around some more, and eventually got to watch the last few minutes of the game. We let the boys hang out in the back of our car and that seemed to entertain them for a while.
These boys look like they should be part of the game. "Put me in Coach!"






This picture is when they were in the car. They kept jumping up and knocking their heads on the ceiling.






This picture is one of a few rare moments when they sat still. I "borrowed" these pics from Debbie's blog. She's the mommy that's always prepared




Tessho's team did make it through to the finals and they pulled off a win on Sunday. It sure was a nail biter though. Uncle D sustained an injury but oulled though to make MVP. Way to go BayIILA!

My little helper

Tesshin has been become quite the little helper. He likes to help me wash the dishes, load the dryer and even wipes down the table after meals. He's always been good about putting things away. He learned that early on at daycare. He loves to vacuum with Tessho too. We usually end up vacuuming the rug (without him) and then when we're done we'll let him hold on and then go in circles, since he doesn't like going in reverse. I'm learning a lot of patience too. I'm guilty for "running the show" my way and on my time when it comes to chores around the house. But when Tesshin wants to help it usually takes twice as long and sometimes twice the effort since I'm cleaning up his mess, but it's worth it. I'm glad he's taking interest in helping around the house because in a few years, he won't have a choice. Hee hee hee :o)
