reading and bees

Happy Monday!

I got to end my day...getting stung by a bee at football practice...are you freaking kidding me!?! I haven't been stung by a bee since I was a kid and I had a horrible allergic reaction to it. I was starting to panic. OMG I just got stung by a bee, could potentially have an awful reaction to it and I am home alone with 3 kids...
So I came home and immediately put a drop of lavender oil and chamomile oil on my now swollen arm and within 45 minutes the swelling was gone and I cannot even see where I was stung anymore. But it still hurt like a B (no pun intended HA!)

The more I watch cheer the more I realize just how really intense it is. Lily almost threw up at practice tonight...because...while they were doing their routine she was holding her hands like knives instead of like blades (whatever the f that means) so she had to run laps. 
But, we also have to volunteer 4 hours to help the cheer squad...well I can't really just jump in the concession with Addison or work the main gate with a baby. So I said something to the coaches and asked if there were any other ways I could help without being pressured into concession with an infant. So I get to do "gifts" for the opposing cheer squads on home games. That actually sounds fun! All I have to do is make treats for the visiting squads during home games. I can't wait for our next home game!
O and we are traveling to St Augustine this weekend for our game! I am going to have to get up SOOOOO early Saturday to get everything and everyone ready! But...I wouldn't want to spend my weekend any other way. I love that they love this so much!

Well, my liquid dish soap was a bust...I hate it! I am going to mess with it a little more and see if I can change the recipe...I am also going to clean the dishwasher to see if that helps. But right now I bought a tiny thing of cascade to use. I cannot handle the dishes being all foggy. UGH! I just need to be able to get them clean without getting irritated every time I open the dishwasher.

So I am starting at the Y tomorrow. I am excited and nervous all at the same time. I will find just how out of shape I am. I am blaming it all on Addison. HAHA! 
Speaking of my little ginger...I bought her some rings like she was playing with at church. It is amazing just to see how much she is developing. She plays with all her toys and she tries to copy the noises you make. She loves sitting up now...she can't on her own...but she loves sitting in your lap and looking at her toys and stuff. She also has a new found obsession with Whiskey. She loves him most...it's like the world stops when she catches a glimpse of him. It is cute. 

So...Christian got sent home with his first homework sheet. Just sight words, nothing too intense. So we were looking at it while I was cooking today...and he already knew his sight words. He read them with no problem, and his sight words were put into sentences. He was able to read his sentences with no issues. I.Was.Amazed!

Sorry for writing a book for you. I love you...

this is what i tried to send you earlier. so focused on getting that toy

baby selfie!

practice wore him out! He was talking...then he wasn't

 O! that picture of Christian reminded me. We were sitting on the couch waiting for Lily to get out of the shower, talking and he just fell asleep. Well I let him sleep until I was done with Lily's hair. When I woke him he was so out of it I asked him to hold my hand going up the stairs. Well he was so zombified when I asked him to hold my hand...he shook his head yes and leaned forward and started trying to bite my palm! I laughed so hard...it was hilarious to watch. He smashed his nose against my hand and was biting at me. 

Ok now I am done for real! I love you...
