YMCA basketball/Austin 2010

Well, Austin's last day playing basketball for the YMCA was today. He won an award for 110% player. Coach said that any time he was on the court, he was giving 110%.
During the season, he had issues with stealing the ball, etc. He says that he was nervous on the court and worried about stealing or playing the way that I know he can. As the season progressed, though, he got alot better. The team only won one game, but they played very hard and everyone improved as the season went on.

colic....UGHHHHHH

Well, Gracie has colic, that is partly why I haven't blogged as much as I had planned to do. She starts the screaming about 5PM every night and it lasts until about 10. I have tried everything that everyone has suggested and nothing works at all. It is making life very hard, and dinnertime almost impossible. If I don't get something started pretty early in the day, then Austin either helps, or I have to hold her while I make something simple. She screams when I put her down during this time, so I try to just hold her, because the screaming drives me insane. She is almost at the 3 month mark, so hopefully it will be gone soon!!!

TRD

Just wanted to note a sweet memory of Jesse. Starting about 15 months old, at night or naptime, I would spell out t-i-r-e-d when I thought that he was tired. He caught only really quickly and started to say, I'm not TRD a few months later. Too sweet....he still say it now.

Fibroma

Well, we went to the orthopedist a couple of weeks ago, and he said that the "non-ossifying fibroma" is benign and not something that needs any attention, but that that i not where his knee pain coming from. The pain is on the front of his leg beside the kneecap. The fibroma is on the back of his leg. They gave us a pain chart for him to write down when he ha pain. Now that I can see how often is actually hurt him, I think it may need to have an MRI or something. He only used to complain about it once a week or so, but now with the chart, it seems to be hurting him almost every day. I will call and speak to the doctor to see what the plan will be now. We originally made a follow up appointment in the middle of April, but with ut hurting him this often, I don't think that we should wait until then.
