Hanging in there

We found out all too quickly that day one post surgery was the easy part!! Apparently when you are doped up on medicine a hamburger goes down no problem! Curtis has been totally melting down every four hours on the dot for the past few days...just in time to get his medicine again. Poor guy isn't eating much still and cringes as he swallows. Its awful to see him in so much pain. So we are taking it easy and drinking lots and watching lots of movies.

I feel like I am surrounded by baby girls these days. My cousin Megan just delivered her first little joy, baby Claire. Tommy and Kelli found out they are having a girl (the first girl on our block!). And a dear friend from highschool just delivered her baby girl today. Ohhhh as if my four nieces weren't enough to make me want to make bows and bedazzle everything in sight! Here I am bedazzled for my job as "manager" of Curtis's soccer team, the Crocodiles.

I made a shirt for Nicholas to cheer on Curtis's soccer team as well. Its as masculine as I could made it. Jacob says it won't be long until I can't bedazzle him anymore. So be prepared all you loved ones with squishy little girls. I am on a creative pink rampage!! Heres the shirt. Isn't he adorable???

He cheered the entire game. And danced. And ran on to the field at least a dozen times. "GO DILLES" (crocodiles) adorable!

Bet you're wondering what about Jacob?! I asked Jacob if he wanted a shirt and got a less than polite response. Then we showed up to the game and wouldn't you know it, there was a bedazzled dad with a "billy's dad" shirt on. Oh he got an ear full about that one. It is super hard to homemake mens shirts though. I tried to convince him to at least let me add a soccer ball to his polo. Got a big "NO" on that one too! So instead he just cheered twice as loud!

We are nearly certain that Curtis will be able to play in his second practice and game this week. We thought it would be a struggle to convince him not to play last week. Fortunately/unfortunate he felt so awful he had no desire to run or kick at all. But he did enjoy having his name announced before the game started. The coach said he was on "injured reserve" it was pretty cute.

Best moment of the game was by far when the coaches daughter refused to play goalie. She sat by the goal and watched while the other team scored twice in 10 seconds :) Oh and the little guy that scored the first goal of the game in his own goal. That was pretty cute too! I can't wait to see what Curtis does next week when he finally gets to play.
