June 11th

Creative title, huh? :-)

Not much has been happening here since I last posted. We have just been playing outside, going to Cobe's ball practices at night, running errands, and we went to the pool today. Yesterday, the Overzet boys came over to play. Today Overzets and Boeves went to the pool with us. The kids have been having fun- relaxing times for me too. We have absolutely no schedule whatsoever. Tonight, Cobe had batting practice at 6:30, but we hadn't planned on him going, since he had it last night and practice Monday night as well. That changed when 5:15 rolled around and all of us were bored, so we headed to the Kaat fields to watch some baseball. I don't really believe how much I have come to enjoy the sport of baseball. I actually suggested to Cobe that we go out there and watch Collin's team play the Mets. I was glad we went- got me out of my boredom, and I got to hang out and gab with Tonya the whole game. Cobe was able to get in some batting practice for his big game tomorrow night. They are up against the Mets. His team has beat the Mets twice this season, but the first time it was 6-2 and this last time it was 7-6. That was the game they were down 6-1 until the 5th inning and came back to tie it up. They went ahead in the 6th inning. A little too close for me! So I know the Mets will be ITCHING to beat us!!!! Plus we are missing one of our really good players/pitchers. Oh well- you win some, you lose some, right? ;-) I just hope for Cobe's sake they can win some because he LOVES to get trophies, and he has only gotten one in his life. I am glad I have another boy coming along so I know I have more excitement to look forward to with Little League.

Well, that pretty much wraps up the last few days. I doubt I'll have quite as much to blog about in the summer since our days just consist of playing, playing and more playing. I haven't given a house update lately: they have pushed back our move-in date until July 12th (was supposed to be July 1st). I am not surprised nor discouraged. Since we haven't sold this house yet, there is no rush to move. The biggest perk of moving will be to walk to the pool instead of driving, but at least we'll still have half the summer left when we do move. The cabinets are sitting in the garage ready to be installed; I meet with Closet Design tomorrow to design the closet systems to be put in; I meet with the decorator on Monday to choose all the lighting fixtures, and unless I'm forgetting something, that is pretty much it! I keep thinking we are almost done choosing things, then they'll throw something else at me that needs to be selected, but I can't think of a single other thing that could possibly need to be picked out.

So, I'll post results tomorrow night from Cobe's big game against the Mets. If they win tomorrow night, they play the winner of the Braves vs. Cubs game on Friday night at 6:00. If they win that, they play the winner of the American League (probably Landon's team, the Rangers) on Saturday at 3:00. If they lose tomorrow night, they are finished with the season. Wish Cobe luck!!!!
