New haircuts

Great he been begging to get her hair cut short again, and we were finally able to come to an agreement on how short. 

Lola also got a nice trim up. Her hair is getting so lit but quite fine. 

Happy Halloween 2019

It rained. It snowed. The wind blew amid around. It was miserable. But we still went out. The had so many layers on I didn’t even get a good picture of them all. The kids had fun until they were frozen and done. Then we went back and hung out and the kids ate way too much candy. Good times!!

This is our 1 year anniversary of friendship! Or so we celebrate it!

Survived 2019 Soccer Season

Well I survived another year of coaching soccer... this year both girls’ teams, while about 5 months pregnant. I had lots of fun though. 

Lola’s team was great. All girls - which I’m way better at coaching - and good fun attitudes. We even played a game at the end and the girls did great. Lola ven scored. I think she’s going to do just fine in sports. 

This year great moves up to U8 and did great too. She found her speciality which is defense I think and was force to be recon with. Our team overall didnt do the best, only winning 1 game but we improved each week and I hope they had fun. 

Now to see if I finally hang up my hat coaching Greta. I’ll for sure do Lola again. 

Football Saturday

Well it finally worked out and all 4 of us went to the Michigan game with mom. We had soccer in the morning and left a little early for the noon game. After we left soccer, the whole way to the stadium, Greta complained her belly hurt and she didn’t feel good. I shrugged it off. And by the time we got to ir parking spot I was mad at her for complaining. Mistake #1.

We got into the stadium. Went to the bathroom. For some food and drinks. And headed to our seats. Greta still complaining. Mistake #2.

Sit down. Get organized. Greta is on my lap. She said mommy I think I have to puke. In my mind I think yeah right. Mistake #3.

Because seconds later, she pukes all over me, herself and the floor in front of us. Seriously!?! Luckily I had a different shirt for her. So clean up myself and her and then try to figure out what to do. Nice guy behind us gives us napkins. I’m trying to hide the fact she just puked. 

Ryan agrees to take her home. Lola and I will stay with mom and then come home after the game. He takes her home, she eats lunch  and is fine. So lesson learned... she didn’t feel good from all the running at soccer. Had I given her a few minutes to sit down and regroup, we would have been fine I think. 

Oh the memories! But for Lola it was a great day! She loved all the attention and had so much fun!

Greta's First Lost Tooth

Big day at the Delaney's!  Greta finally lost a tooth.  She has been so wanting to as so many of her friends have already lost several teeth.  But when you don't get your first tooth until you at 13 months, you have to be patient.

For the last while, she's said that her tooth has been loose, but I really couldn't see it.  Then Thursday night at dinner she was crying because it hurt.  Again, I didn't quite sense the urgency that it was going to fall out.  But she showed me and I thought, it still has a while to go.

But the next morning, 6 am, she came running into my room and said look how wiggling it is.  I tried to open my eyes and see it but just couldn't so I say - oh yeah!  Wow!  Then 5 minutes later she came running back in holding her tooth!  She pulled it out all by herself!!  I was so proud and also relieved because I don't like to pull out teeth - at all.
