Another month has flown by and it is time to catch you up on our lives.
- We went to visit my family for a couple of days at the end of our Spring Break. Maddie & Allie made bunnies at Build A Bear, we played outside and we had a birthday bash for Kim, Will & Tesha. We had a wonderful time.
- Jake had a tooth pulled over break. He did really well at the dentist and didn't complain at all after leaving.
- We had a party here to watch UNI play in the Sweet 16 game. About 40 of our closest friends came over. About 4 minutes into the game, our cable went out & didn't come back on. We turned on radios and listened to the game. We were pretty bummed that they didn't win.
- Jake went to a pool party that his friend Nick had one evening.
- Baseball is in full swing. Jake practices 2 nights a week. Games start at the beginning of May and end in mid-July. He's batting and fielding well. Coach wants him to pitch...I'm not sure he can do that!
- Allie had a Brownie meeting.
- Allie saw a plastic surgeon about the mole on her lip. She is going to have it removed after school is out for the summer. It has been changing and we've decided to play it safe and have it removed.
- I volunteered in Allie's classroom.
- I saw an allergist to see what is going on with my shellfish issues. Long story short, I have a severe intolerance to shellfish but am not allergic. Bottom line, I will get violently ill if I eat it, but won't die! I love crab, shrimp and lobster...I might see just HOW sick I get if I eat it...
- Soccer season has started for Jake. They practice 2 nights a week and have games on Saturdays. His team won their first game like 10-1. Jake had 4 goals and played goalie for awhile too. They won their game this afternoon 7-4 and he had 1 goal and played goalie again.
- Allie went to a birthday party for her friends Elena and Hunter.
- We had our final PTA meeting of the year. I didn't agree to any new duties next year!
- Allie made her 1st Communion. My family came up to celebrate the occasion. We also celebrated Ben and Maddie's birthdays since they were the week after.
- I took an online autism class that was very interesting.
- Jake's class went to the symphony.
- Talent Show tryouts have begun. Jake's same group is doing an act. They've done something together since 1st grade. Allie and her friend Jordyn want to do something, but can't agree!
- The kids are still attending religious ed.
- Scott had an angiogram in March due to some unusual symptoms. We spent a long day at the hospital waiting for results. Long story short, they found nothing and his symptoms are pretty much gone. He's started running again and feels pretty good. I am praying that he continues to be healthy. Thanks to my friend Kristin for keeping the kids overnight and getting them to school. Thanks to our sitter Alishia for bringing the kids home from school.
- We had a nasty hail storm here a few weeks ago. We had to replace our roof and are waiting for our new siding and gutters. We are ordering a new garage door since the rest of the house will be done.
- We painted our bedroom and the spare room. This summer, we are tackling the kid's bathroom and our bathroom. It seems to always be something!
- Coming up...baseball and soccer, brownies, religion, my class goes to museum school, Jake has sign up for tackle football and gets fitted for pads, more talent show tryouts and practice and much, much more!
