Yesterday was Xanders last game. Because the game was at 1, and our previous game was also a late game, we decided that only I would take him to prevent him from being distracted so he'd actually hopefully play the game. I was wounded from the previous day at the pool. I guess when I was going down the slides with Sterling and slamming my feet into the bottom of the pool bruised the top of my left foot. I could barely move it. It hurt really bad, but I sucked it up and took Xander. As Xander was practicing playing catch with his coach and teammate, I was watching from the sides. All of a sudden I get whacked by a portable tent that was set up. The wind blew it up and over. I have a new bruiser from that incident. Good thing it was me and not a kid!
Before the game. Concerned he didn't see his coach yet.
And he hits!
I volunteered to stand next to second plate so the kids could have some encouragement to run to the right plate. Some kids were running all over the place. So I'd wave, clap my hands, and cheer them towards second, then onto third when it was time. It was fun.
After the game, Xander received a sports tattoo and a metal. We also received his pictures we had taken a few weeks ago. They turned out really nice! Now I just need to get some in the mail for the grandparents.
After leaving the game Xander and I went and mailed some packages that we had already put together for the grandparents. Something I've been working on for a VERY long time and they are long overdue. I'm so glad they came in and are now in the mail to their respective grandparents home. So, be on the lookout for something special :)
I also put away the suitcase full of clothes from my sister for Sterling. She takes great care of her kids clothes and we're so happy to be able to use them! Sterling is set for Fall/Spring/next Summer! (As long as she doesn't have a growth spurt!)
I took the plunge and deleted Facebook off my phone. I even deleted it from my pins and favorites from the computer. I know it doesn't stop me from typing in the address, but for now, I'm really just using it to keep in touch with my sister in Germany. I get so mind-blown at all the bitching and whining that goes on, that it's not worth my time to even look at it. I have better things in life than listen to everyone complaining (or gloating) about their lives!
As for today, not a whole lot planned. We're planning to take the kids to the airshow, but we'll see if we make it. We should be getting Jayla back either today or tomorrow, so we're all excited for that! We'll be putting up Sterling's big bed and ordering her a mattress to fit it. She's been in our bed way too much and I had the final straw 2 nights ago. So, she'll get a big bed, where I can lay in her bed with her until she falls asleep. Other than that, just want to clean the house.
