Slacking again...........

Hello everyone!! Long time no blog!! I sure didn't realize it had been over a month. I tell ya! Time is flying by so fast these days. And I don't like it one little bit!!!

So, they boys are both done with basketball. And now baseball season is beginning. Zachary has decided not to play :(. However, he sayd he might play in the fall. We'll see! Troy is playing. He had his 1st practice Tuesday night. He did very good. He has practice tonight. He has a practice game against Lamar's team tomorrow night and he has batting practice Saturday afternoon. Way to jump right in there the 1st week. Too bad they can't practice on Wednesday's and Sundays or I'm sure we'd be out there on those days too. I wonder if the coach realizes that they are only 6 yrs old? Hmmmmm? Anywho.....

Zachary is in the 5th grade this year so they get to do a lot of cool things. On May 8th they are having a cook/out fun day all day at school. Then that night they will have a 5th grade dance. Another day that month the have a 5th grade softball game. 5th graders vs. teachers. Then at the end of school the have a 5th grade graduation with reception to follow. It all sounds like so much fun. I have volunteered to help with the cookout and dance. :) I can't believe my little boy will be in middle school next year! I don't even want to think about it!!

Also, at Zachary's school they have something called Outstanding 5th grader. They do it with their Adopt-A-School partner Pritchett-Moore. The faculty at school votes for 3 girls and 3 boys to be finalist. They look at grades, conduct, and citizenship. Anyway, Zachary was picked out of about 150 students as one of the boys finalist!! I'm so proud!! They then had to write an essay about what their adopt a aschool partner does for their school, community, etc. Then today they got to miss 1/2 a day of school to go to Pritchett Moore and job shadow and they were also interviewed. So after today, they will take their essays and the interview and then Pritchett Moore will pick 1 boy and 1 girl and the winners!! Good luck Zachary!! I don't know when we will find out.

Troy is doing great in school. He is now up to 1.0 books (1st grade level). He loves reading. I can't belive he only has 2 more months of kindergarten!! I'm so sad. My babies aren't babies anymore.

Troy and Zach both have been taking allergy shots. They go once a week. Troy is doing so well tht he is going to be able to cut back to once every 2 weeks. He is very excited. I do think I need to make him an appointment with the Ear, Nose & Throat doctor. He has had strep throat 3times since school began in August. He may need to have his tonsils out. So, we'll see.

Ronnie is doing great! He started working out again about 3 weeks ago. His feet don't hurt near as bad as when he 1st went back to work. He is still taking the blood thinner everyday and going to have bloodwork done every 2 wewks. Hopefull he won't have to take them much longer. I know he will be happy about that. On March 13th he will be going on his very 1st field trip with Troy. They are going to the fire department, police department, Tumbling Tides, and to the park. I hope they have a great time!! Also, he will be going to have his 2nd PET scan done since he quit his treatments!! PLease pray that this one will bring good news as well!!!

Well, gotta run. Hope to get back on here soon.Love you all!
