First Tee Ball Game

I'll have to post some action shots from Tim's phone!

Tee Ball, Broken Finger and one tough cookie

Tuesday night we went out to Broussard for our tee ball game. You can imagine one mommy, three kids and two tee ball bags running to get to the field on time.

Thankfully Tim wasn't too far behind us. The first inning went well with Avery batting first then Riggs. Both did awesome. (They have some natural talent!)

Second inning comes and Avery hits...tosses her bat and begins to race to first base. Then she falls and (we think) her face mask on her helmet lands smack on her left pinky finger. Screaming begins. Tim runs onto the field and grabs our angel. She was in serious pain.

We have three doctor daddies on the team. One was there and at first sight suggested ER. I immediately took her from Tim, grabbed ice and raced back to town. She stopped crying before we got to the concession stand. She is so tough.

After X-ray. And then consultation the day after we knew she'd have to go under to have it popped back in place. We are so blessed to have many doctor friends to take care of us and more importantly our baby girl!

This morning all went very well and we are home resting. Hoping for a speedy recovery!!

Tee Ball Time!

Finally the season begins! I think Riggs has been waiting for this day for 6+ months!!! He loved every second. Avery (thankfully) loved it too!!!

We have our jamboree this weekend!! Can't wait! Go Astros!

Masters and Monster trucks!

Riggs thoroughly enjoyed the fact that gold was to be watched for hours. First thing Sunday morning he came to our room. Insisted we turn the lights off and the tv on. Golf Channel is on he responds: I want to watch golf not talking about golf!


Avery and I headed to target while the boys watched golf...and we saw a giant truck in the parking lot!

Week one of swim school

Sweet Avery

Avery has been such a sweet heart lately. She really is becoming a little lady.

I just had to drop something off at Reach and she raised her hand and asked her teacher if she could give me a hug an a kiss.

Her hug is so tight and meaningful and her kiss is so genuine. She then whispered in my ear : I love you more than a ton!

Happy Easter

We are thankful for the Easter weekend we got to spend in New Orleans with Nana, PopPop, Aunt Angela and our cousins Merritt, Nathan and Nick!

Here is our Easter Sunday Picture:

My nightime shirt

Cardboard boxes and iPads.

Meche's

Daddy was heading to Oakbourne to play in the Member Guest...we decided that meant donuts for us! Evelyn joined us but unfortunately my phone had no more room for pictures :(

First Girlfriend

And it's official. Riggs has his first girlfriend. Her name is Ashlyn Romero. She is 18 months younger and he is head over heals.

I asked him tonight why she was his girlfriend. "Because I love her" and "I kissed her at the Piccadilly"

Bad Abi

Last night Abi snapped at Riggs while the babysitter was here. The skin wasn't broken and he seemed fine.

Well this morning Riggs asked me to draw a dog after he had tried and wasn't pleased with his work. I drew my best dog (which is pretty lame). He then took the paper drew a circle around the dog with a big x! The wrote x Abi. I asked him what he was doing and he said its his no abi sign. :(

I am hoping it doesn't happen again.

This big girl isn't scared of a big bad storm!

I knew she was awake but she wasn't fussing on the monitor. Then I heard the loudest noise and I about jumped out of my skin! I stated at the monitor and I saw her looking out the window. She didn't even notice me walking into the room because she was so focused on the storm!

Selfies...
