Football camp

Baron is going to football camp. He is not going to play. We are already over committed with 4 activities in the fall for the kids. It is just a intro to football and no pads. He loves it and is doing really good.

Baron is just a worker. He works hard in everything he does. This has been his typical day. Football is 3 days in a row for 2 hours. It has been well over 100 degrees. Last night when we came home it was still 98. He swims for 4 hours, goes to the gym with me. I tell him he needs to rest before football. He never runs out of energy so he goes outside and plays baseball for an hour ( when it's 106 degrees at 4). Comes in eats then goes to football. I don't know how he keeps that pace up.

One thing about football. They are way more serious then other sports. 3 days of practice a week, time the kids in practice, and don't tolerate kids acting out(playing around)

Last night Baron took a pretty good hit. He was doing drills and the boy that went in front of him made a mistake. When he finished he ran through the drill instead of around! Baron took the hit the worse. He was able to finish the drill. But, got a fat bloody lip.

On a side note Nolan and I are so tired. Last night we were laughing ( as we crawl into bed to pass out) about how easier it was when the kids were littler. We have no evenings just to watch tv and be home. Everything is filled. And all the stuff you have to do/prepare to get them where they go takes a lot of time. I have been getting up at 4:30am and still can't get my to do list done. We haven't been getting home at night till after 9:30 and then we still have to get the kids to bed.


I guess it might slow down in 12 years when the kids go to college.
