Let me catch you up....

This week was spring break for Trenton-this means he will be spending all day each day at daycare. He was not happy about it Monday morning, but it was ok when I picked him on that afternoon. I guess he had fun-he said he did. So Tuesday he is back at daycare and things are going good-that is until around 3:30 or 3:45 pm. At 4pm I got a phone call from daycare asking if I was on my way yet? I responded "no not yet, why what is wrong?" I was told that the paramedics had been called to Trenton because he was having double vision due to hitting his head on the gym floor. So, I RUSH out of work, call Jeff who just happens to get to daycare at the same time as me because he RUSHED out of work too. On my way to daycare the paramedics call me and tell me that Trenton's vision is back to normal, there is not a knot yet, his pupils are reactive and he seems to be acting ok. So, I then denied for them to take him to the hospital since I was 5 minutes away by this time. I figured if they were saying he was ok, then things should be ok and if he needed to go to the ER we could take him. So, I called the doctor and she said just watch him through the night and see how he does, go ahead and give him some medicine for his headache. So he did good through the night and we spent 2 1/2 hours at the doctors office having him checked out. They had to do some type of scan/x-ray on his head to make sure that nothing was cracked, fractured, or broken-thankfully nothing was. He checked out ok at the doctors office. On the way to daycare I asked Trenton what happened and he said that Zion(the bully-yes, the same on that Trenton fought with last summer and all this year) initially made Trenton fall. The kids were playing a football game in the gym and Trenton was in the air trying to catch the ball and Zion hit Trenton and made him fall back and hit his head. So, when we got to daycare and I got Trenton and Hollie settled (oh yea-Hollie was at the doctor with us-she was so concerned about her brother), I went and complained to the Velletta the lady under the director. the director was out sick with the flu. I expressed my concern, my anger and advised them that this was now out of control and something had to be done. Zion was always in trouble at daycare and school. I stated that Trenton and Zion are to be no where near each other, much less look at each other. I also stated that I WILL be talking to Zion's mom because I felt this had gone to far and something had to be done. Well, Wednesday when I picked the kids up from daycare Trenton told me that Zion-he goes to Leeds school-had been suspended for hitting a girl-Again, this child is out of control. Wednesday Zion tried to play with Trenton and Trenton told him NO numerous times. Zion finally asked why and Trenton said "you are a bully, and you have ruined my week (Trenton-under doctors orders could not do any thing sport related until Sunday-this made Trenton very MAD). Zion said "I hate you, I don't care if we are in God's house, I hate you". I told Trenton to kill with kindness. I said, I am handling this now, so you need to be as loving and caring to him as you can if he is around you. So-Thursday I did not get to see Zion's mom because she did not have to pick up her kids, and Friday I did not get to see her because she had to pick up her daughter early for kicking a teacher at daycare. I will see her next week though, and I have all intentions of speaking to her about this because this has gone to far and I don't want Trenton to get in another fight at daycare. I was told by someone at daycare that they are getting all the documentation in order to kick him out of daycare because this is not his first offense. This child is in time out EVERY day at daycare. He lies about everything because he things it is normal. His mom just keeps saying "I am praying about it"-don't get me wrong that is great that she is praying about him and his behavior-I pray about my kids, however you have to discipline your children when they misbehave. She just gives empty threats.

Hollie, on the other hand is doing really good. She needs green on Monday to make a perfect month at daycare. She knows it and is so excited about it. Her teacher told her that is she was on green Monday that she would get a prize.-we have also told her this.

Today we had Jaxson's 1st birthday party. It was GREAT! He got a lot of gifts and Lisa did a great job on the decorating, and the cake. he was so cute- Lisa did a slide show showing pictures of his first year. He was wonderful-he showed pictures of him when he was born, in the NICU, his first bottle, just different things. It was great. It is so hard to believe that ONE YEAR ago we were sitting in the hospital looking at a little MIRACLE!!!He is such a blessing!!!!

Also, say a prayer for the families here in bham that lost their teenagers in the awful wreck on 459 the Friday before Easter. I can not imagine what they are going through. Remember to hug your kids and tell them that you love them all the time- you never know when you want have the chance anymore.!!!

I know this was long, but I had to update everyone.

hugs and kisses to everyone.....

What has happened since Tuesday??

Let's see.....
Wednesday-not much happened-everything went well.-no issues-no injuries.
Thursday-I went to Corbin's first soccer game to take pictures for Trenity since she was in New York. Corbin's scored 2 points for his team. Way to go Corbin!!!
Friday-Daycare is closed for Good Friday- so I took off to stay home with Hollie. We cleaned all day until Trenton got home and then we left to go to Tanner's 3rd bday party at Pump it Up. It was a lot of fun. I do have pictures to post-just have to get them on the computer.
Saturday (today) The kids had their bowling party. Trenton racked up in stuff. He got a sit down plaque/hang on the wall plaque for 1st place because his team won the junior league, he got a trophy and 2 or 3 other plaques-one was for best improvement (21 pins), one was for highest handicap series and I forget what the other one is for. Hollie got a trophy for 2nd place in the bumper league and she got a plaque that shows what her highest game, average and handicap was. Oh yea that was Trenton's other plaque too. Then we went to Jim and Tina's for Easter. Jennifer, Brian and the girls were here. We did an egg hunt, dinner, and Kacey's bday party. This was a chaotic time, but very much enjoyable. The kids played outside and inside, they hunted eggs, and then we ate dinner. Again, I have pictures-just have to get them on the computer---

Tomorrow (Sunday) The kids and I will go to church and Eric, Lisa, Jaxson and mom will come over for Easter dinner here. So I will have pictures of that too.

Stay tuned for pictures.


A very Happy Easter to everyone!
Love you all!

eliminated

Ok, we were eliminated in the tournament last night. We lost the game. But our boys played the best the could with all they had. They tried and tried, but just didnt make it in the end. But they are holding their heads up high because they placed 4th out of 8 teams. So they have something to be proud of. Congrats boys.

Ok, well that is all for now. I am going to go to bed before 11p tonight.

Still in it

Well, Trenton's team pulled a win out today. They won 8-5. Trenton hit the ball and was able to steal 3rd and home. He also got the winning out. The batter hit the ball over to short and the short stop threw the ball to Trenton on 1st base for the winning out. WAY TO GO GUYS!

We play Monday 8. Again, stay tuned for updates.

First loss

Trenton's team lost the game today 11-5. But, Trenton got a triple. YAY! Trenton played 2nd base tonight and did a good job. So far we are 1-1 for the pre season tournament. So, come back for updates because we play at 1 tomorrow.

Trenton's first game

Trenton's team did great. They all played well with each other. They all hit, they stopped the ball and made their outs. It was a great game. They won 12-4. Trenton hit the ball for the first time. He played 3rd base and did a good job. He stopped the balls when they came to him and he made his plays just like the coach said. It was a great game. We were scheduled to play at 3 today (Saturday) but due to the storms we are not sure what is going to happen now. Stay tuned for updates.

Hollie's first practice

Ok, Hollie was so excited about her first practice, it was all she talked about. She was excited when we got to the ball park and was jumping up and down. The coach split the team in to two groups. One group was going to hit and run bases while the other group was going to play catch with the assistant coach. Hollie was in the group to hit first and was fine when she walked up to the tee to hit and was getting ready to hit and the coach went to move her and there it was.....Hollie had a melt down. I mean a true melt down. For those of you who know Hollie, you know that she is funny about men. It takes her a long while to warm up to men. Sometimes months to warm up to them. So when her coach tried to move her, she screamed, yelled "I want my mom, I need my mom", threw her self out on the ground and pitched a fight for everyone to see. So, after about 10 minutes I finally got her calmed down and Trenton had to finish practice with her. She wanted Trenton to stand with her when she hit, and he had to run with her. She was ok with the other part of the practice because that coach did not touch her. He was in front of her throwing the ball to her for her to catch. I had to explain to her coach how she is and asked him to please not take it personally. It was crazy. We left her field and went to Trenton's Field for his practice and she cried because her practice was over. She wanted to practice some more-what a crazy kid.

Hopefully the next practice will be better.

This week

Let's see....Monday work and school as usual. Trenton had practice -he did good I walked 2 miles around the track while Trenton practiced. Tuesday, nothing big, -just kidding. Jeff's birthday- one year older. Wednesday-church night. Had fun-we taught the kids some about Easter. Thursday (tonight) Trenton has practice and I have cap ball meeting for Hollie. There are 5 teams and 1 coach. Well, by the time we got to the meeting we only need one coach, of course it was for Hollie's team. Lucky for us one of the dad's stepped up to be head coach and some other dads stepped up to help. Great we all have a coach now. OH YEA, today is Hollie's bday. She is 4 now-she is getting so big. We got her a bat, helmet, glove, and bag for ball (all pink and black.) She loves it. She tried to take it to school with her. Crazy kid. I will post some pictures of her from this morning. Friday (tomorrow) is crop night-I am so excited. I bought some stuff with my birthday gift cards from my family and I am ready to use my new stuff. Wow Saturday will be busy: I will be making cakes for Hollie's bday, her party is from 2-4 and at 4:30 she has her first practice. Busy, busy , busy- I would not know what to do if we weren't so busy all the time. I think I would go crazy.

Well, I am off to do some laundry and some other cleaning before bed. So, I will blog this weekend.
Love to you all
xoxoxoxo

Since the last blog

Trenton had practice on Thursday with his new team. I think he has a good coach this year. (Not that he hasnt in the past-they have all been great). He did better than I thought he would. I though he would go in scared, but he didnt. He went right in and did his batting and fielding with no problems.

Hollie, has been on green all week. YAY! She was very good at daycare this week. SHe is getting in to the "telling on other kids" stage. At school if you tell on other kids a lot over a certain period of time you have to wear a "tail" to remind you not to tell on someone. Well, Hollie has had to wear it a few times and she HATES it. So, I told her I was going to get one for home if she didnt stop telling on Trenton for every little thing. I am trying to get her to understand if it is something bad, or something big, or both to tell us, but she feels that she has to let us know is every move. So, I may talk to Jennifer about making me a tail so that I can pin it on Hollie when she gets in one of these moods.

BTW...Gail, Jeff's mom is doing good. She is able to get up and move around and for the most part she is back to normal.

Saturday was busy for us. Trenton had practice from 10-12, Corbin's bday party was from 12-2 and from 2-3:30 we cleaned up and got things ready to go for the youth's spaghetti dinner from 5-7. So, last night when we finally got home around 8 we collapsed. Everything went well, it was just a long day.

So Hollie's bday is coming up and so is her party. She is excited about it. Can anyone guess what the theme will be this year? PINK! Yes, I said Pink. we are having a pink party again. I cant get away from pink. I think I am going to use one of Stella's can pans and make her a pink flower cake!~

Well, I am going to go finish cleaning house now. come back for more updates!
