Finally Got To Do Training....

T finally got to train today after 6 weeks of one sickness after another with a tiny bit of feeling good in-between the sicknesses.  Sad part was that he got to come back today and the teammates he trains with were all MIA today so T got to train with bully bob and give him a beat down today....LOL! 

#GrowingProbs

Measured T’s biceps 💪 against his dads tonight. His dads are only 3” larger than T’s😱😱😱. Also, measured their thigh muscles and his dad was only 3 1/2” bigger than T’s. In six weeks time the boy has had two colds, fluid in his ear that caused balance and hearing issues, then pink eye.  I said all that so you’d know hardly any training has happened because he’s been recovering. So the muscle tone that is happening in this boy is all genetics😳😳😳. That being said it makes it interesting in the sport T does because he has to fit into a weight division. 😂😢🤦🏻‍♀️🤣😭🤦🏻‍♀️ those are the mixed emotions I’m having right now…LOL! Needless to say we need him to get much much taller. We may need to hook the boy up to a stretching machine😜🤪🤣🤣🤣.   So much natural muscle tone🙄. #growingprobs 

T'Money Looking Fly....

T is no longer wearing any kids sizes in clothes anymore😢.  We had to breakdown and buy mens small in Adidas pants yesterday.  Kids sizes are too small and mens are a little big on him.  At least it leaves some room for growing.  This momma bear isn't ready for all this growing up😭.  T is loving every minute of it though and laughing at me to boot...LOL😂😂😂!  Check out this pic of him in his new pants.  He is such a handsome young man.  He's going to need shoes for training purposes soon and I'm not looking forward to having to put $200 down on a pair of those.  Prices are going up, up, up on clothes and shoes.  Can't wait for Christmas sales to really kick in so things will be priced where they should be.

Fun w/Canva

T and I had fun with Canva today. 

T'Money's "New" Mantra

T on USAT’s State of Play….

State of Play shows the pathways to success in USA TaeKwonDo. T made the State of Play board with his Grand Prix Bronze Medal win. What that means is that he gets to fight at team trials in 2023. T has worked so hard this past year and it's quite an accomplishment to be included in this group of athletes.  Here's the link to the page: https://www.usatkdstateofplay.com/2023-national-team/15--49kg-male-cadet.  Here’s pics that I screenshot from the State of Play web page. 

Learning to Split Wood....

Scot taught T how to split wood today.  I got a video but I don't want to be put in YouTube jail so I'm not going to upload the video into it but I'll share some pics that I took.

 

Core Nerf Wars Tonight…

The kids had a blast at nerf wars at Core tonight. Nerf darts everywhere. I bet they will be finding nerf darts In unusual places for a long while…LOL! Here’s some pics of T having a blast with his buds. 

Core Referee Seminar w/Master Freddie McDonald Jr.

Today Core had a referee seminar.  All the kids learned a lot and enjoyed their time with Master Freddie.  Here are some pics I got of T and Scot at the seminar today.

Update on Mom...

Moms gallbladder surgery went well and she's in recovery and will be able to come to my house later this afternoon. I have to watch her for the first 24 hours. It could take up to 5 days before she's able to drive. I'm thinking just a few days though.
