Another weekly update

Well another bit of time has flown by so thought I would give a synopsis of our week. It started on last Saturday morning when Tristan, who plays pitcher in baseball, took a line drive to the left eye. I knew right away and ran to get ice. He came out of the game put an ice pack on for maybe 5 minutes and he went back in to hit. Although he was sore we managed to keep the swelling and black and blue away. That night, Jaesen was working in the garage around 10:30 or so and heard someone in the laundry room, he called out to see who it was. Jack opens the door and starts peeing into the garage, slams the door and finishes peeing into the laundry room and dog water dishes. I woke up to a refreshing smell in the house which I later found out was an abundance of cleaner. Poor Jack, I don't think he had any idea where he was. I asked him the next day why he peed in the laundry room and he looked at me shocked and said "I didn't do that mommy." I said "yes you did honey don't you remember Daddy making you help clean up." He stopped and thought for a minute. Oh yeah, he says, I did that. "Why?" I ask. "Well I really had to pee." So the next day we went up to Georgia to Wild Adventures, they have a water park, animals, roller coasters. It was a lot of fun. Everyone rode coasters and had a blast. That afternoon we went to the water park and my Dad, Jaesen and the two boys went to the wave pool. Karen and I were sitting in the shade while Savannah napped and I commented on how someone was getting rescued because I saw the lifeguard jump in. So we watched and then saw poor Tristan being rescued. It turned out he was bobbing (safely) in the waves having a great time when the lifeguard made him hold onto the red floaty. He couldn't understand why but did as he was told and was towed in. The wave pool had been shut down and everyone was watching. When he got in he contained himself until he got to me and then started to bawl. He was absolutely mortified. The head lifeguard agreed with Jaesen that the other guard was a bit overzealous but I guess our kids will never drown while they are there!! Yesterday I had a 12 hour shift in Labor and Delivery and saw two babies being born which was so cool. When I got home the boys were getting out of the shower when Jack came out stark naked, bleeding on his finger and his face all covered in hair. Jaesen just looked at him and asked if he had been shaving. "No sir Daddy." Well we could tell he had tried as his right side burn has an interesting pattern cut into it. Jaesen sat him down and told him he is just too young to actually try shaving yet. Next thing I know he'll be missing eyebrows or leg hair or something. This weekend we are going to take it easy and chill, especially with gas as high as it is. Happy Memorial Day!
