eeny meeny miny mo!

Sam does "eeny meeny miny mo" when chosing between ANYthing. And now, Brice has caught on but it's not quite the same. Funny though! In this video he was selecting the popsicle he wanted in the bathtub. That's a big decision when you're a little kid!

Jr. Ranger Whitley at your service

Sam is on Spring Break this week so he's spent some time with my mother, G-mama. Yesterday they went to the Ocmulgee Indian Mounds (here in Macon). Sam had a great time! He took his first ever test and was awarded the status of Jr. Ranger!

Fun times

As usual, we've been busy.

I co-hosted a baby shower with some of my Komen girlfriends for our friend and Race Chair, Mechel, who is due to have her little "blueberry" very soon! I was proud of the flower arrangement and decorations I created for the occassion so I had to share.


Of course we've had some tee ball in the mix too, but right now we're on a break until after Easter.


Last week at Brice's school they had the annual Trike-a-thon to raise money for St. Jude's and awareness about bike safety. One teacher told me that when she saw all of Brice's protective gear she thought, "isn't that over-kill", until she saw him going wide open, full speed ahead on his "ginja" (Ninja) bike!



Later that same day I visited Sam's school to observe his Easter egg hunt, which I missed because they bumped it up to beat the coming rain. Since HE wasn't disappointed, all was well, but I still went to his class and snapped a shot of Sam and a few friends all decked out for pajama day. How much fun is that? PJ day and an egg hunt all in one!


And this photo is a "teaser". Check out my newest blog to see what else our crazy family is up to! http://www.quickwhitsracingteam.blogspot.com/

Sam's 1st game

What a fun afternoon! Sam's first tee ball game, against the White Sox, was awesome. All the boys played great, but I was super proud of Sam. Boy was he SERIOUS when he came up to bat. On the way to the field he said, "I sure hope we win. Somebody told me the White Sox were good." He got to play right field, pitcher and first base. Brian is coaching first base and I sure do wish I could hear the "guy talk". What I really wish is that I'd been quick enough to capture the moment when, playing pitcher, Sam made a good play and Brian walked all the way to the mound to give Sam a high-five. May not be on film but that's etched in my memory forever!
Brice had a great time too, playing pick-up ball with all the other siblings running around the field. And what better way to cap off the night - supper at Dairy Queen. Go A's!!!!!

bubbles are fun!

Sam is concentrating very hard on actually producing bubbles, but having fun (and cracking Brice up) in the process!

Brice's laughter is infectious! He probably poured most of his bubble juice out while buckled over in laughter, but he still had fun.

catching up

Life is really busy right now for Sam with this new tee ball adventure. Brice wants to play SO bad. For now, he's one heck of a catcher! He loves it when Sam bats because that means he can wear Sam's glove and go after the balls.

Yes, we enjoyed the snow a few weeks ago just like everyone else. He was already frozen to the bone when these pictures were taken, so little Brice had gone inside to warm up. He loved the snow too!

And, last but not least, all four of us had a great time at Monster Jam last weekend. Even though he's not our favorite, we had to take a picture with the infamous Grave Digger! Brian and I, for obvious reasons, were kind of partial to Storm Damage. Brice was pulling for Monster Mutt because he loves puppies so much. Sam pulled for War Wizard because he had swords on his truck.

1st practice

Proud , proud...proud as can be!
Just like his Daddy was, Sam is #3!
