Catch-Up

Not much going on around here. Summer is still not sleeping through the night. Football is over and sadly, Alex's team lost the county championship. BTW, that was the last time Alex will play for the GORC Wildcats Football. Nexted up is Arundel High Wildcats! Scouts is not at all what I thought it would be. Its very disorganized and the kids in it are total brats. Thankfully, Erich says he wants to do tackle football next season and even better, Alex's coach will be moving down to the 65lbs and be Erich's coach. BTW, thats my brother!! So that should get us out of scouts. Alex is currently playing ice hockey for two different teams in two different towns for two different levels. One is Rec and one is Travel. Basically, Rec is anyone that wants to play can and Travel you have to try out and make the team. We are enjoying both. Alex is also heading over to the High School Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 3-4pm to weight train w/ the High School Lacrosse players. Eventhough he doesn't go out for the team until the 2010 school season (when he is a freshman) he is getting his foot in the door plus the football coaches have already been over to look at the kids. Its pretty brutal, loads of running. So this is Alex's new winter schedule, Tue, Wed, Thurs after school - practice at Arundel. Tues & Thurs Travel hockey practice 8.30-9.30pm, Weds Rec hockey practice 7-8pm and then at least 2 to 3 games per weekend. We are gonna do a couple of tournaments between the two teams. One is Crabtown held here in Maryland and another during MLK weekend in Maryland as well. Then there is one at Lake Placid, NY and one in Scranton, PA - that one I'm excited about cause my younger brother's in-laws are from there and we will see them for sure. Plus my sister-in-law's sister had a baby a few weeks after Summer and I want to see her.

So the house is a mess and I had the carpets steamed cleaned, laundry needs to be done everyday and I'm getting the feeling that Summer may be sick. So I'm gonna go for now and call NiteTime Pedatrics and see if I can get her in tonight. Perhaps I will post some photos tomorrow.

Also Kat, I just finally caught up on your blog and I'm wondering if you hit 200 post, does that mean I hit 200 comments?

And Lisa - Sure was thinking alot about you today. I'll email you soon and I love your doo!

Finally Robin - I'm so proud of what you did for those that needed help. Volunteering has always been something I have always enjoyed and I missed alot since having Summer. I know the stress it brings and Benning is lucky they had you.
