Lacie rolled off her bed during nap time and landed on her shoulder. She can't lift her arm all the way up, or lift herself up onto things. Good news is she probably didn't break anything. Still waiting for the X-rays to come back.
I took Austin out on a date yesterday. Just me and him having fun at PetSmart and Party City looking at pets and toys. Sean was sick and Lacie was hurt. Austin LOVED it! We also went out and had lunch and I treated him with a soda. It's amazing how much he eats. He ate a 6" turkey, two pickles, macaroni salad, and his soda. Then he had his Air Head candy. All our kids were supposed to go to the zoo with the Fenter's, but due to our unfortunate events we couldn't. Instead Oz got to see fish, cats, birds, mice, and guinea pigs. A pet extravaganza!!
I bought a nice road bike about a week and a half ago. It's tons of fun and a great workout! I'm hoping to enter a sprint triatholon this fall. I figure I'll get into better shape before I enter into the April one. It's really amazing how quickly I can bike 8 miles (30min) on that thing! I beat my old record for a 5K run of 25min 44sec, it's now 24min 33sec. I welcome the challenge :-) I biked to Billy's house (13 miles round trip) and I felt like I was going to die! Not because of physical exhaustion, but because Apache Junction doesn't have bike lanes, AND all their roads are falling apart! I felt like I was riding a bucking horse on crack. Needless to say, I'm not doing that again!
Rach is still very excited to graduate in May! She's extremely busy with her current load of work. So needless to say, she can't wait to get back to doing other things. Still though, somehow she finds time to go out and do some things with the kids. We went to the park last Fri night with some friends. Sean and Austin are really starting to like soccer and are getting pretty good at dribbling the ball.
Sean is into video games a lot now. Mostly Mario and PBSkids.org. It's hard to get him to play outside now when he knows there are video games to be played. Even Austin is asking to play angry birds lol! Lacie has little interest in playing, but she likes watching Sean play. She still loves coloring and painting. All the kids pictures are getting much better with much more clarity. I had FUDGE day again with the kids at their school. I was a little worried this time because I'd have to be doing different stations (shaving cream, eating ice-cream, and hammering nails into wood) by myself with all three kids. Fortunately, Rach is interning in their classrooms so I had lots of help thank goodness! It was funny to watch the difference between Oz and Sean while putting the shaving cream on my face. I put the cream in Oz's hands and he put it on my face and then all over his hands and arms making a big mess. Sean didn't want to touch the stuff so I had the put the cream on the popsicle stick (later used for cream removal) and he applied it that way. As expected, Lacie wanted to do it like Sean. I don't have any pictures downloaded from the camera for this yet. The funniest part was that all the kids were tasked to draw them with their dad. So I got a lot of good drawings of me. I'll have to post those later.
