Football Girl!

We have a football shaped beach ball that I picked up at the dollar store a while ago for Elijah, but have recently discovered that Matea LOVES the football! She sees it coming and starts shrieking she is so happy, and loves to have us hand her the football and say, "Touchdown Matea!" She giggles and laughs and then shrieks and shrieks! It is adorable! There is a picture of me, at about the same age as Matea, sitting on my Dad's lap with a football and a huge grin, so maybe Matea will grow up to be like Mommy and love football too! Right now it's just fun to see her so excited whenever she sees that football coming her way!

It's football time again! I'm so happy!IMG_4742

Uh oh, the ball dropped. I've still got my eye on it though.IMG_4746

Matea's open for the pass . . . here it comes!IMG_4752

Yes! She caught it!IMG_4753

Touchdown Matea! (okay, technically she's signaling a field goal, but we're not going to be picky)IMG_4744

If only you could hear the sound I'm making! I love football!IMG_4747

She's signaling touchdown AND field goal! They're the same sign!
