Sing Songs, Bring Sweets

Baseball time!

We decided to take a gamble on a 7:00pm Hooks game, and the kids did great!  We arrived at Whataburger Field around 6:15, and the kids lasted until 9:00.  Success!  It was so much fun!

It helps that Jimmy’s friend has a suite 🙂

Ballpark cuisine gets an A++ rating from the kids.

Peaceful Wednesday.

Today was lovely and relaxing, despite the fact that Eliza woke up with pink eye.  What a fun surprise!  She’s been pretty tolerant of the eye drops, so she’s starting to feel much better.  Hope the rest of us don’t catch it!

Oh, Magnatiles!  The source of so much fun and frustration.  Seriously, these keep the kids occupied for hours!  Thanks for Jed’s awesome birthday present, GaGa and Pappy!

Jed absolutely loves to paint.  He’s very meticulous, and he loves to mix colors.  This kept him busy for 45 minutes!

One of Eliza’s best friends had a mani-pedi birthday party!  So adorable!

They were so proud of their fancy nails!  The brothers were very patient 🙂

At the ballet on Sunday.

She was actually very excited to see Swan Lake, though you can’t tell in this pic.  She was entranced for the first hour, but she kept asking when it was her turn to go on the big stage.

Loves!

Cute little shirts from GaGa and Pappy 🙂

GaGa’s in town!

We love you, GaGa!  Thanks for taking good care of us whilst making me delicious cups of tea.

And here’s some video.  Eliza loves the stage!  And I guess something was tickling her nose!

 

Finally relented…

and went to the doctor.  The kids have been a bit stir-crazy since we haven’t attended our usual activities (besides school), but hopefully my medicine will kick in soon and relieve me of my lingering blahs!

Tomorrow is the spring program at school, and Eliza has been singing her little heart out at rehearsal.  Can’t wait to see what she does onstage tomorrow!

Whew!

Whatever illness I had REALLY knocked me down.  I can’t remember the last time I had to spend an entire day in bed, but that’s what I did on Saturday.  So glad to finally be feeling a little more normal.  Still not 100%, though.

These people are the biggest motivation to get better!  They are just so cute and sweet!

Boo.

I’ve been really sick with a bad cold this weekend, so I don’t have much to post tonight.  Sorry, readers!  I hope to pick up my blogging game again asap!!
