Baseball Game!

Daddy's showing Hailey how to put her hand over her heart while singing the National Anthem.


Max put his hand over his heart too (not quite in the right spot but he tried).

Watching the game.

This morning, Nana came over and watched the boys while Hailey and I went to the dentist. I was first to get my teeth cleaned and then Hailey. Hailey talked to the lady the whole time, eventually inching her way over until she was standing right next to her talking to her while she was cleaning my teeth. As she got close to her she was chewing her fingers and said "Do I have to get pictures of my teeth today?" She stopped chewing her fingers and smiled when the lady told her not today. Then the lady asked her why and if she thought that was hard last time. She nodded her head yes and then said "I didn't like it so much." She was very glad she didn't have to have them this time. She talked to her some more telling her about her brothers and her new puppy. She said "If my brother was here he would push all your buttons cause he's only three years old." She also told her that she had another dog named Champ. She said "But one day he was here when I went to school but when I came home he was already in heaven." She looked down as she talked about him like she was a little sad. She talked alot while she was getting her teeth cleaned too, anytime she stopped to rinse her mouth. She said "We have a huge swing set with five swings, so we can have five kids. Well, one of the swings is a rocket ship and two kids can swing on that so actually we have four swings plus two so that equals six. So we can have six kids in our family. The only part she didn't like was the fluoride treatment. She did not want to put that thing in her mouth. She started crying a little bit and said she had to go to the bathroom. The lady talked her into opening her mouth and she put it in and held it in while I held her hands down so she wouldn't pull it back out. She only had to do it for a minute but she sure was mad at the lady afterwards. She wouldn't talk after that and was giving her dirty looks. It was funny. She didn't stay mad too long though cause the lady brought out the box of stickers for her to choose from and some toothbrushes. She was very good when the dentist came in to check her teeth. She said "I need the sunglasses now." She's definately not afraid to speak up anymore. (Last time she went to the dentist, she didn't say anything until afterwards and the lady told her to say something next time so she could get out the sunglasses.) Nana had mac n cheese already made for us when we got home. I had all three kids lay down for a nap after lunch. Hailey was up late last night and we knew she was going to be up late again tonight. She layed down for an hour in her bed but never fell asleep. Vikki came over and brought me a pair of shorts she found at Salvation Army. She french braided Hailey's hair. It looked cute. Bruce got home around 4:30. I got things packed for the ballgame tonight. The kids were excited to wear their baseball caps. We ate dinner and then met my mom and dad and Vikki and Kenzie there. It was Christian night so they had a Christian band playing there. Max loved dancing to the music. They also loved rolling down the hill. After awhile, we took the kids over to play on the playground. Max sure was good at climbing it all by himself. It's a very tall one with three levels and he climbed the ladder all the way to the top without any help. Daddy thought he might loose his hat so he went to take it off of him. Max said "No, cause I'm playing baseball." He wanted to keep it on. Hailey quickly made a friend and they played together. Jack got a little fussy toward the end. It was 8:30 and past his bedtime. He was very tired but couldn't sleep. He would close his eyes but then they'd pop back open every time the music played. We all had a great time at the game and our team won! Yeah! All three kids fell asleep on the way home and stayed asleep when we moved them to their beds. It was 10:30 when we got home.
