Our summer has been wonderful!! Lots of quality family time that I am not ready to give up!! Ellie has loved going to the field with her daddy and being the "whistle blower" for conditioning drills. We have spent several days playing on the lake and at the splash pad! Ellie and I are both started noticing that Daddy is beginning to spend less and less time at home. Football was beginning to pull him away as we got closer and closer to the season. Ellie started going through "Daddy withdrawals" and they continue still.
Ellie had her 3rd bday party this month. We did a Gymnastics Party! I really think they had loads of fun!! It was totally unorganized, but with our crew, what do you expect!! LOL It was difficult to get it all done in the hour and 1/2 alloted, but we managed. This was a great way to introduce Ellie to gymnastics. She will start classes in October.
We had our first Football game this past Thursday night. We played Sparkman and came away with a HUGE victory!! I however, didn't get to watch a down!! Ellie was in rare form and ran the entire game!! I chased after her the whole time! She was so tired from her week at PreSchool (yes we officially started PreSchool this year!) that she was warn slap out! When she gets this tired, she becomes wired and just won't stop for a minute. She was running through isles and up and down the stairs. Yes I was "that" mom!! Thank goodness the isles on our stadium are huge and that sit around us, know us and love us or I would have been mortified!! She had a blast tho!
We got home super late that night. Ellie passed out in the car and was not going to wake up for a bath. So I fought her to get her shorts and shoes off while she slept and tucked her into bed with crud smudged all over her face. I would wait to do her bath in the morning. Poor thing didn't wake up for her bath until about 5 minutes after being in the water!! She was just exhausted!
Yesterday I had the whole crew... I watched my nephews while Jana went to Kerry's game (they won) and then the entire family came over and had tacos and burritos at my house for dinner! By the time everyone got here our home was wrecked from all the playing that went on during the day. I promised everyone that it was cleaned this morning but you definitely couldn't tell it! So much for Saturday deep cleaning this week! LOL We will start again today!
Well this should catch you up with our life to today... Pictures to come!!
