Boot Camp

I went to boot camp last night with another Mom from cheer. She has been doing it since November. One of the coaches from cheer leads it at the gym after cheer is over 4 nights a week. It was so hard. I honestly felt like throwing up twice. I am running a lot and doing things that hurt my wrists and stomach. I really want to keep doing it but, I am not sure if it is a good idea. I am not sure if it will strengthen my wrists or injure them. I almost think I need to get in shape before I can even DO boot camp. I never quit though I just kept going at the speed I could go. I was the oldest person in the group too. I don't think that has ever happened to me. Even Barrett the coach is younger than me. It makes me want to keep doing it even more.

Happy Easter.

I hope everyone had a good a blessed Easter day despite the rainy weather. We went to church and then out to lunch and then home for an indoor egg hunt. I think that is the first time ever we have had to have the egg hunt inside. It was fun though. The kids decided to hide them again on their own after we emptied them. Kylee had her competition at Frontier City this weekend as well and they got 2nd place. Go Heat All Stars! It was a nice weekend and we had a good visit with Meme.

My Biopsy came back normal

Just to let you all know my biopsy came back normal...which I knew it would really. I still don't have answers but at least I know I am normal. Well, I guess that depends on who you ask. LOL.

Conner Got A Double!

Conner got a double in the game on Sunday. We were all huddled in coats hats gloves and even blankets just praying for the game to hurry up so we could get out of the extreme wind and 40 degree weather...when Conner got up to bat and he did awesome! I screamed all the way around the bases with him. Go Conner!

Tournament Weekend

Conner has his first baseball tournament this weekend. He played 2 games yesterday which both Nana and Papa John were able to come up for. It started out a little chilly and windy but then got warm and stayed completely windy all day. They have another game today at 12...and it is COLD and windy today..so not looking forward to it. We are definitely still trying to get used to baseball.

In my opinion it is too much for these 7 yr old boys. 2 games a week plus batting practice where we can fit it in. Not to mention this weekend long tournament. These parents are SO competitive too. It makes me cringe to think what they must think of Conner since he hasn't hit a ball yet.

LeeJay was fit to be tied yesterday. Conner was last to hit on the line up for both games and he got benched twice. We picked up two kids for the tournament supposedly because they would make our game stronger and they weren't any better than our boys! Of course they played the whole time and never got benched either. I really hate the sports systems here. They are so political and ridiculously competitive at such a young age. All we are teaching our kids is that if your aren't naturally the best and a strong athlete when you are 5 or 7 then you might as well not even try anymore.

I guess I just don't get it. It seems like kids just need to be kids again.

Today, I May Very Well Lose My Mind...

I am borrowing a line from Kate Goslen of John and Kate Plus 8. "Today, I may very well lose my mind." Who else feels this way? I seem to feel it more and more as I get older. LOL.
5:30 am Kylee is standing next to my bed saying her tummy is "gassy" and asking for a gas X pill. I give her one and head her back to bed...of course on the way I have to let Boomer outside to go to the bathroom and then we see Carson in the hallway. "Mommy, I had a bad dream." Third night in a row for him and I to end up in the guest room due to a bad dream. I think it has turned into my bad dream! We settle down when here comes Kylee again." I just threw up." I asked her if she made it to the bathroom and she said " No, it is on my floor." Seriously! At what point should we expect our children to be able to recognize the signs and get to the bathroom or at least a trashcan . Which incidentally, was right next to her bed. Literally a few inches from where she hit the floor. She is almost 10! Even Carson my almost 5 year old can tell when it is coming and get to the bathroom. Grosses me out!
So here we are, at 7:30 am and Kylee has gone back to sleep. I need to wake her up and see how she feels. Carson and I never went back to sleep of course. So, he is going to be cranky this afternoon.
Today is not a good day to have a sick child home from school either. I am going to have a biopsy on my uterus at 2:00. They said it is no big deal...the procedure that is. I am a little nervous. Just because the last time a doctor told me it was no big deal...on a dye test I had done...where they ran dye through my Fallopian tubes...I passed out when I stood up afterwards and then when I came to I threw up. My body reacts so weird to things like that. Even when I was in labor with all 3 kids I threw up with contractions. So, I really need LeeJay to drive me there and if Kylee is home sick I am going to have to go alone. Such is life right? Hope everyone has a much less crazy day than us.
