I came home today and noticed Drew had added character to his jeans. Not on purpose of course. 😉 You know you can’t have boys with out having holy jeans!

Alex said, “Mom, when you say pokus pokus a coin will pop out of your ear! Say it Momma! Say pokus hokus!”

Drew has a mini-tournament in Birmingham today. It SNOWED on us on our way up there. Nice! LOL! It was in the 30’s and we froze. We played the #1 in the state and the other 2 were in the top 10 of the state. We tied against the #1 and the other 2 we lost. Drew got his first goal today and it was very exciting! Pics later:)

Drew was honored to be asked to be a player on the Auburn Thunder Travel Soccer Team this spring. Normally you have to pay and go through try-outs, but the coach of the team called Friday night. He said he had seen Drew play and has seen his competitive nature, skills, and speed. We sat down as a family last night and discussed it and he was very excited to hear about the invitation. He, of course, said he wanted to do it. After having several seasons of rec league soccer, where kids don’t take it very seriously and don’t…

Here’s a pic of the elated Drew with his precious pet, who has been eating like crazy since we brought him home.

I called this morning to check on Oreo and they said he was eating and jumping around. Yesterday he wouldn’t move hardly at all and just laid out. They said the doc wasn’t in yet, but they’d call me later. I just got the call and he’s fine, needs some meds for a few days. I’m just so thankful. Drew and I just cried till our eyes were puffy before I left to take Oreo. He just kept saying, “Momma, don’t let him die.” It’s so hard to see your child in such grief stricken pain. In an hour when…

Drew called me while I was driving home, saying he thought Oreo (his rabbit) was dead. He was crying and it was very traumatic. I got home and looked at him and saw that he was probably not going to make it, but I would take him to the vet. I was praying they could do something to help. Drew got the rabbit for his 9th birthday back in January, so we haven’t had him that long. It’s Drew’s first pet that is just HIS, not a family pet. Drew couldn’t go with me to the vet because he had…

Our 2nd of Summer Days…Today we started the morning by going to Town Creek Park and walked. We took some pictures along the way. Here’s the boys while resting on a bench. After that we went home and made homemade Strawberry-Lemonade Icies. Here’s a picture of Alex showing off the fact he gets to drink out of a big boy cup! The walk really stirred up our appetite so we went to Red Lobster with Rob for lunch. After lunch we came home only to struggle with Alex, who didn’t want to take a nap! I finally got him down…

I’m so tired. Today was a productive day! Yes, I say that with excitement because this week I’ve done pretty much…nothing. So today I had to get up early and take Drew to the dentist. He HATES going to the dentist, but he survived it and had NO cavities! Yay! They did say in 6 months when we go back they’ll probably have to pull some teeth, because he has lots of crowding going on. He will need braces regardless, but the pulling of teeth will help “cut the cost” when it does come time. The cost of braces will…
