…John must have been tired.
My Birthday Present
My birthday present “from Andy” arrived today. It is a travel jewelry organizer. Hopefully, this will make carrying all my jewelry easier when we go to San Diego. It has lots of space so I do not have to be quite as picky. Happy Birthday to me!
Doubleheader Night
John had his first baseball doubleheader, so we spent the evening at the ballpark. Laura was bored a lot and somewhat annoying. It is a good thing she is cute!
John played really well. He has improved so much in just a short time and it is great to see his growth as a player. After the games, John’s team all received their participation medals. John was very proud! He still has one game left, but he is already looking forward to fall baseball.
Baseball Pictures!
John’s baseball pictures have arrived! He took a really great picture. This is the individual picture.
This is the team collage.
Now, to get a frame or two…
The Bat Saga, Part 2…
Yep, black eye…
And, as if that wasn’t enough, he got hit in the lip today with a wiffle ball bat at his friend Brayden’s house while playing catcher *again.* Here’s to hoping he learns to back away from the batter soon because I am pretty sure his face can’t take much more…
The Bat Saga, Part 1…
While at a graduation party today, John got hit in the eye with a foam-covered bat. He was playing catcher and was apparently too close to the bat. After the initial gush of blood (mostly from his nose), we got him cleaned up and discovered that he had a cut on his eyelid. There is no way to stitch it, so we just had to wait for it to clot. Some ibuprofen helped the pain and he was back playing after about 30 minutes. However, I think he is going to have a black eye tomorrow…
Another Night…
…at the ballpark!
Picture of the Day brought to you by Laura, who was very excited to get the opportunity, and she even asked if she could take the POTD every day. I told her no, but I did say that she could take them now and then. That made her happy.
