TBall Season Has Started
And just like that... we are a baseball family! Blake is starting his first Tball season with Rolesville Rec League! This is such an exciting time. As a 5 year old we are really starting to see Blake morph into this little boy phase and I love it!
They haven't been given a team name yet, but his little team is the best! Blake's Uncle Clint is the head coach. Blake's dad and Papa are helping to coach and Gdaddy will be there as an umpire. Tristan, his cousin is also a player on the team. And finally... I am the Team Parent! Yep, we are making this a family affair! It is awesome!
I love watching Blake and Tristan run around out there. Blake was a little hesitant about it his first practice, but by his second practice he was fielding the ball perfectly and hitting pretty well too! I am so proud of him and he seems to be having a lot of fun as well!
Not to mention.... Tball is totally different now compared to when I was a kid. When I was a kid, all you needed was a glove! The team had the rest of the equipment. Nope! Not these days! Now each kid has their own equipment. So Blake has his own baseball bag, helmet, glove, bat, and everything else needed. It is crazy. So yes, I now have my cute little mom SUV with my lawn chairs in the back and Blake's baseball stuff. And so it begins!!! Boy mom life! I wouldn't want it any other way.

31
31 and feeling older than ever. HAHA! I think I have hit the point where bdays aren't that exciting anymore. My family did do dinner and a cake for me and I loved that! Blake was also great at blowing out the candles with me.
I usually do this for Blake... thought it might be fun to do for me as well.
At 31....

The Flu Strikes
Hello... Yes, we are still here. We have been MIA for a little while due to the flu!
Crazy enough, there was a late flu outbreak here in NC and it also included a strand that was not in many flu shots. Blake's PreK and his best friend got it... which then in turn allowed us to get it. These poor kiddos didn't stand a chance.
Blake was actually out of preschool for a little over a week! Thankfully it wasn't the stomach flu. He just had a runny nose, a cough, and a low grade fever. He was also SO tired all the time. Ryan and I took turns staying with him while he was sick. I felt so helpless because he looked to miserable. :( Thankfully the doctor said that we were taking good care of him and that he showed no signs of pneumonia or ear infections, that are often associated with this type of flu.
I am very happy to say that he recovered and just in time for warmer weather and my birthday! We also have his 5 year old check up and kindergarten registration coming up...oh yeah, and TBall! We are so excited for Spring!
