A Sporty Weekend

While I wish we all could’ve been together on Friday nights for games and that Chase and Ryder would’ve had the chance to cheer for each other on the field a time or two, it worked out well for the most part. Ryan and I alternated who attended which big kids’ game each Friday and I was on Ryder duty on Friday night. Ryder’s last game of the season ended up being the best one and it was so fun watch! (Tee: Old Navy / Joggers: Evereve / Sneakers: Nike / Bag: Clare V.) Ryder loves soccer and plays constantly in the backyard with his brothers and Ryan but every time we asked if he wanted to play on a team, his answer was always a strong no. Something shifted this spring and all of the sudden he said he did want to play on a team. He crushed this season and did so, so well. We are so proud of our wonderfully introverted little homebody for stepping out of his comfort zone to do something that brings him joy. Saturday Saturday morning was a lovely slow-paced morning with zero plans on the agenda. Gosh, I love that feeling! We eased into the day with homemade waffles for breakfast and squishy-making! We used the same Amazon kit we’ve used in the past to make a few squishy friends and it’s always a hit. (Tip: If you get this kit, make sure the mold is a little damp with the water solution before filling to help them easily shake out when you submerge them in the water.) Ryan and I also alternated his and hers workouts and I did a Move Together challenge workout! For any fellow challengers, within the challenge there are four starred priority workouts and those are the workouts I’m committed to hitting each week. There are an additional two workouts I may sprinkle in if I have the time or desire, but my main goal is to do the 30-45 minute priority workouts each week, as this is something I know I can successfully complete. Saturday’s workout was actually one of the priority workouts I had to miss during the week so I’m glad I could squeeze it in! After my workout, I headed home and showered and then we all ate an early lunch. Our afternoon plans took us to Discovery Place Science in the city! It was a misty, dreary day, so an indoor activity was calling to us and this one fit the bill. We’ve been long-time members of both Discovery Place Kids and Discovery Place Science since Chase was a toddler and continue to love these local gems. (Sweatshirt: Old Navy / Tank: Target / Barrel Sweatpants: Amazon / Shoes: Nike) On our way home, we stopped by a local bakery for some sweet treats before greeting Comet and taking him for a walk as the sun finally started to emerge from behind the clouds. Our evening plans had us back on turf for Chase’s flag football game. <img loading=lazy decoding=async class= wp-image-191048 aligncenter src=https://www.pbfingers.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/img_0790_vsco-999x1024.jpg alt= width=403 height=413 srcset=https://www.pbfinger...
