Random iPhone Photos

Here is a sampling of random iPhone photos I've taken since the last Random iPhone Photos post! I swear I would go insane without my iPhone camera. It is seriously important to me and allows me to document our daily lives, something that would otherwise just pass right by without me noticing. But knowing that I have my iPhone with me I feel an obligation to capture our life as it's happening and I'm SO glad I do!

Finishing up some ice cream. I'm pretty sure this action alone qualifies her as a Seibert.

Reading at the library.

Heaven.

Beautiful clouds overhead.

Lia: Leave me alone! I'm doing brain surgery!!

I love these dreamy bath photos.

If you are wondering why our house ALWAYS smells like burned toast, this is why. Max requests one waffle every morning "more browner blackish burned brown."

I swear my heart stopped beating for like 4 whole seconds when I turned around and saw this.

Watching daddy at a soccer game.

Max: Look at my banana phone! Holy banana phone Batman, this is Superman! I need back up!

New haircut for Lia! The last lady who did it left a weird funky line of hair in the back and it was making it look and act so funky. So we chopped it to a cute little bob! Lia loves it.

Loving this chair from a good friend. Can't wait to put it in the new place!

Taken by Lia who then informed me that I had to put it on "spinstagram."

Yes, I shattered a Pyrex dish by adding room temp broth to the dish while it was baking in a 375 degree oven. I'm still shocked I didn't have any glass sticking out of my face considering that my head was right up in there when it exploded. And by exploded I mean it SERIOUSLY exploded in my face. Lesson learned Pyrex, lesson learned.

The Soccer Post!

At long last I'm posting about Max's soccer season. Oh man... it was all the way back in September. Better late than never though!!

 

Max was on a team with 5 other kids that they all decided to name The Bumblebees (I'm guessing because of the yellow shirts; although Max was really disappointed they weren't the Lions). Four boys and two girls. I have to say that I was not all that impressed with our region of AYSO soccer. It seemed poorly organized and our coaches were two young college girls that wore really short booty shorts. And they had graduated from USC. They were nice enough but one of them quit half way through the season leaving only one coach. The practices were sort of chaotic and not a whole lot of skill was taught. I mean they played games where they had to pick the ball up with their hands. THEIR HANDS! I think my standards for soccer are a lot higher than most though. Anyway...

Max of course loved every second of it. He was definitely the littlest on the team but in terms of endurance and ability he was right up at the top. Another boy on his team was also really good and showed a lot of natural talent as a defender but the two of them together scored LOTS of goals. I was SO proud of Max who score the first real goal for the team and for himself. And it wasn't an accident goal like some are. It was a real shot right into the net. I think in all Max scored 13 or 14 goals for the season. Check out the video below (the Shakira song is for Max who knows it was the World Cup song). The very last shot by Max's friend with an assist from Max is pretty awesome! A lot of the time it's bunch ball but sometimes beautiful things happen!

 

 

Check out those cheeks shaking from running so fast!

I can't wait for more seasons of watching Max (and soon Lia) play soccer. It's SO fun to see them excited and willing to run and play! And I'm glad we have a couple of sports lovers. It's also great to see the determination and sportsmanship in Max. He congratulated his teammates and tried to help them. Mommy goggles or not, I see a lot of potential in him!
