The Bad News Bears...

I had my first softball game for a league I am playing in for my friends business' team. We had so much fun, even though we lost the game 16-12. But hey, the other team was SO good. They actually play tourneys together. Also, it is a co-ed team, and you have to play even numbers of girls and guys every inning. No girl on our team has ever played softball, and every girl on their team had. So we did pretty well considering. I got on base every time, and ended up getting 5 runs (1 was for someone else's hit - I was the base runner). Anyway, it was a blast and I am so looking forward to Wednesdays now this Summer.

Lissa Lou and I were in charge of making the team jerseys. I did not get a picture of the group, but we all had our nicknames from our group of friends on our shirts. Here is a picture of my shirt:



The other names we had were DeeZee (Darren), Natty Lite, Rothi, Oscar, Leonard, Tank, Toppy, Dangle, Ringer, Bouchee, Francisco, I Dunno, DanO, Slim and BoYo...fun stuff. Lou and I spent 7 hours making the shirts...they do not look that intricate but they were a pain in the butt. Lou and Jason's daughter wanted in on the fun, so we made her a tanktop with her nickname "Bri Bri" on it, and we made Holland girl a onesie with her nickname "Dutch". I guess you could call them the team mascosts :)

A wedding and a happy baby...

Darren and I are beyond happy to have our little girl back. She is the sweetest, cutest, loveable little baby ever.

This is what I walked into this morning when she woke up - she is the same every morning. So happy and excited to see us. It makes my heart melt. (Sorry it's upside down - its how I took the picture)


Yesterday Darren and I took Holland to my neice Regan's wedding. Regan looked absolutely stunning (loved her dress)- thin and tall...so jealous!! Her husband is gorgeous as well, one of those couples you love to hate :) It was a great time. We snapped a few pics of our little girl on my iphone at the wedding.

Missing my baby girl...

Just got back from a vacation to Southern California for Dland and the beach for 4 days...it was a blast, but I am missing this face terribly:



Darren and I are going to pick her up tonight from Megan's house and I am SO excited!!!
