Football, football, and more football...

Ok - I guess I am officially a soccer mom. But not really a soccer mom - more like a football mom, but I really think that still counts!! Thomas had his first game on Saturday and it was so fun! He is pretty good at this football stuff! Even though his team lost, Thomas did get the only touchdown for his team. AWESOME!! Anyway, we do have a few things to work on - such as flag football does not mean tackle (no matter how rude the other kid was), when the whistle blows the play is over and you cannot tackle the other kid (no matter how rude he is), and when the other team makes a touchdown - you cannot tackle the other kid (no matter how rude he is)! So, once we get the whole meaning of "flag" we will being doing good. By the way, Thomas was not the only one who was forgetting it was flag football, however, he was the one I was noticing because he was my child - and I think you notice your child more than others. So, for the next 5 weeks this is what we will be doing 3 days a week...and I love it!!

Everyone else is doing fine but me of course - I am sick, again! I got some nasty cold that has knocked me flat. I hate being sick because I am not a good sick person - I hate it when I can't get things done and I just get plain crabby!! Oh well, it is starting to go away and I am beginning to get my energy back.

Kate got her stitches out this last week - and again she didn't cry. However, when it was all over she looked at me and yelled at me. Told me that it did hurt and that it was my fault. Oh well, I can live with that...

Mattie - she wants to walk - I don't want her to walk. I am holding her back I know, but I am not ready for that one yet. I need her to be a baby for a little while longer - is that too much to ask??
