We had a busy busy weekend but it was fun! Friday night after Jonathan’s practice went to Memorial High School’s last varsity baseball game. Carlos and I graduated from Memorial so we thought it would be fun to watch. We had a blast. Memorial won 2-1 and Jonathan actually sat and watched the entire game instead of running off with all the kids. Meanwhile Kaela had a slumber party she was invited too. The big surprise for her and the rest of the girls was a limo was picking them up for a cruise around town and dinner. She called me as soon as the limo got there – she was ecstatic!
Saturday Jonathan had a game at 1 but the school’s Jamboree was also at 1. Of course the girls decided to ditch Jonathan’s game and have Jagi take them to the Jamboree while Carlos and I went to the game. Jonathan’s little heart was not in the game this week probably because he knew the girls were having fun with confetti eggs and silly string. (Thankfully mom had already purchased Jonathan’s eggs and silly string so they wouldn’t sell out) The Tigers won the game and they have 2 left before playoffs. As soon as we left the game we headed to the Jamboree where we spent most of the afternoon. It was hot but they kids had a blast! Everyone including Carlos and I had to shake off before going into the house – we were all full of confetti!
Sunday we all slept until 11! It was nice and much needed rest! As soon as Kaela woke up she went to a friend’s house to play – she was there the entire day. You can tell she is a pre-teen; she is starting to make her own plans, scary! I cleaned most of the day, Jonathan and Carlos went to Carlos’ softball games and then Bry and I showed up at his later games. We came home and it was time to eat and get ready for bed.
Still no new baby. Jaime had contractions all weekend long and we just knew she would have her but I guess Olivia Lennon Everly Elizabeth Marker is not ready to show her face yet! Can you tell they still haven’t decided on a name…

Crazy week...
Here are a few pictures of our week so far and we still arent done!
Jonathan's team ready to sing the National Anthem
Jonathan up to bat! He had 3 great hits during this game.
The kids found this lizard, we thought it was weird, it has like a fin on top. We havent seen one like this before. They were too fast to catch, we tried.
Aunt Aleigha had a surprise party for Uncle Jeremy's 28th birthday - we were singing Happy Bday to him.
Kaela and Myranda had their own special song for "Germ".

Weekly Update...
Oh I love weekends and I hate to see them go! Since the weather has been exceptionally great here we have been spending lots of time outside. The kids love to play kickball right now. Friday night we spent our evening playing kickball with the kids, had some Mexican food and played more kickball. Whatever gets them tired! Saturday Jonathan had a baseball game bright and early at 9am. The Tigers whooped some booty 15-4. Jonathan finally had 2 great hits – one went all the way to the fence! His 2 hits brought a total of 5 people in to score. He was super excited and really needed this boost; he had been in a slump lately. After the game Jagi took Oliver and my kids to a birthday party while Carlos and I spent the rest of the day together…alone! It was a great afternoon. His birthday is Tuesday so I thought I would have a pre-birthday day for him. We started it off by taking a nap! Then I took him to Papadeaux’s for some good seafood and then we ended the day with a comedy show at the Improv. We met up with his cousin and his wife and saw Wanda Sykes. She was great and we had an awesome time with great laughs! Sunday we played more kickball and took a bike ride up to the school to play. Carlos finally fixed his flat tire so he joined us as well.
This week is a busy one for us, Carlos’ birthday Tuesday, Jonathan has a play at school and a baseball game Wednesday, Uncle Jeremy’s birthday is Friday and another baseball game Saturday and the school Jamboree.
Until next time – have a great week!

Presents
I had to include this pictures. I went in to check on Jonathan and Bry before I went to bed and this is how Bry fell asleep. Her kitty on her head - beauty sleep? (It was pitch dark in their room - the flash works great)
The kids playing the Wii and Aunt Jaime's house
The week finally went fast
WOW crazy week for us! Baseball baseball and more baseball it seemed, I was almost tired of baseball…ALMOST but not quite. Jonathan had a game Monday they won 15 to 3. Another game on Tuesday, they lost 15-14 – it was probably the best game of the season so far. The game was completely packed with excitement. He had practice on Friday but started to fill sick so he didn’t end up staying and then a game very early Saturday morning. They lost 21-18 – another good game but we had very bad calls against us. After the game on Saturday the kids and I went to a baby shower for one of Carlos’ cousins. The kids got to play with a few cousins they don’t get to see too often so they had a good time. After that we all came home and just lounged the rest of the day. We had rented movies on Friday night and they watched more Saturday night while I cleaned. Sunday we slept in, ate breakfast tacos and just hung out. Jonathan had team pictures and Bry had brownies Sunday afternoon. Our weather this weekend could not have been any more perfect.
The kids only have 7 more weeks of school left; they are SO ready for summer. Swim team starts mid May and they can’t wait to be able to get in the pool. All the kids are doing swim team this summer so we will be busy with that for the entire month of June. They keep asking what our summer vacation is going to be this year and I have no clue yet. They have lots of ideas. It’s cute to hear them tell me where they want to go when they have no clue what the place is called. They remember us going but they have to describe it to me – it’s a guessing game.
I still haven’t down loaded the pics from Jaime’s shower…whoops. I will seriously try to do that this week so you can see how cute she looks although she is ready to pop!
UPDATE: I am still going strong on losing weight for the next 15 months. I had a great week although I didn’t have time to work out once but I am trying to take the stairs rather than the escalator at work and walking faster then I normally would. I have not gotten on a scale yet but I need to do that so I know what I started at.
