Welch Family

Dental school is back in session, we tried to get as much "family time" in as possible. Here is a week in review... Niagara Falls pictures in previous post. Firefly's mini putt course is a favorite. Glow in the Dark mini golf is a blast. Cole learned a new word- Astronaut. He says it often, usually when he wants a round of applause or a cookie :) He has some space-themed PJ's and asks specifically for his astronaut PJ's. A friendly tip for those of you planning on Glow in the Dark golf - make sure you wear clean clothes or wear black. The first time I experienced Firefly's mini golf I had spit up stains on my shoulder pad and so did Trent. I still laugh about that. Especially because it was a dental school function. Being a parent is GREAT! For those of you keeping score - Laura gets the rounds Win.

We attended the "on a budget" baseball game - Cleveland Captains are the Indians Single A farm team. Tickets are cheap and we attended $1Taco Tuesday Night. Cole did not speak the first 20 minutes of the game. He was speechless, it was a thing of beauty. Then, out of the corner of his eye he spotted SKIPPER, the team mascot. The rest of the game Trent and I took turns stalking SKIPPER. Cole wanted desperately to see Skipper and give a high fives. However the minute Skipper would start to walk in our direction Cole would bolt the opposite direction and scream like a girl. After some convincing he became content with giving the "painted" Skipper high-fives. He talked about Skipper and hi-fives the whole way home and the next day. The dialogue: "wha ba da ba SKIPPER da ws ba sa HI FIVE wa ba da FUN, AGAIN" - did you get that?
