T-Ball and First Bo-Bo

















T-ball is in full swing. Thatcher is having a great time playing and we are having fun watching. Last week we had T-Ball pictures. Kids were running everywhere, we were trying to get pictures taken so we could play our game and apparently I was not watching Amelia Belle closely enough. She now runs and she was running on the cement and she fell and did a face-plant. She skinned up here nose (as you can see in the photo) and got her first real bo-bo (that's boo-boo to you northerners). She was fine, it just looked bad. Worse is how she has felt over the last week. She and Thatcher have both been sick. Thatcher has gotten better, but Amelia Belle has been running fever since late last week. The doctor says a cold (no swine flu, thank goodness) and she looks like she's feeling better. But, when she feels bad, she is very unhappy and doesn't sleep well. Because she's still real clingy with Kristi, this is a little stressful for her.


May is a big month. It was just mothers day, and this weekend is Kristi's and Amelia Belle's birthdays. Kristi's is Friday and Amelia Belle's is Saturday. Amelia is having her second birthday--first party--Saturday and we got a waterslide and the kids should have a good time. Afterwards, we are having a crawfish boil for Kristi's birthday. It just so happens that there is a church crawfish boil at the same time, so a lot of our friends will be there, so we're keeping it small--mostly family. It should be fun.


Lastly, Amelia Belle is doing much better with me. Every day it gets better. Last night Kristi left for an hour or so to get out of the house and apart from a little whining, we did just fine. Tonight after dinner with the Rodies, Kristi and Carrie went in one direction and Mark and I took the kids to target. Amelia Belle looked for Kristi a little bit, but never really got upset. As I was pushing her around target, she kissed me again and again. It's SO much different than it was when we first got her and especially in the last few weeks. It's getting better and better. However, she's still really clingy with Kristi. Kristi has a hard time getting anything done. It's stressful so keep her in your prayers.
