Join The Club

So, I just added the feature to "follow" my blog! Be a friend and join my club! I would join yours!!

Baseball Season is here!



Can you hear the excitement in my "voice"? Well, in all honesty I am really truly excited..because this is Caleb's very 1st year playing ball. He is on the T-ball Angels..Stephen was a bit sad, he really really wanted to be on the Angels too! Stephen is on the Nationals this year, I am not sure what it is about this kid..so far both our teams have been from other states! But he is really excited, he is playing on a team with his cousin again this year, so that is a bonus! Plus the cool thing is this...Sam's brother's boys, are both on the Angles, and the Nationals **who's both play** . Now the Angels is a div. above Stephen, but they are the same #'s as well. Stephen is #7, Caleb #9, and the cousins are Angels #7, and Nationals #9. We just noticed this today, why you ask?? Because it was Picture Day! I can not wait to see how they turn out! We got a couple of "group" shots with our camera, but I always look forward to the "real" pictures when they come! Hopefully Caleb has a great season!! And Stephen as well, but we are pretty sure he will..Caleb we are just not to sure about!

Here's all the Boys that are playing ball this year from the Phethean Clan..* Charles Angles #7, Peter Nationals #9, Stephen Nationals #7, and Caleb Angles #9*

I Hate IEP's/Meetings

For the record, I love Caleb's teacher, and so does he..and he has made awesome progress. Now that the "disclaimer" is out of the way..here comes the vent!!

So, we and when I say "we" what I really mean is "I" attended Caleb's IEP meeting today. 1st of all, let me clarify, I got the news of this meeting YESTERDAY, so Sam wasn't able to attend, although that was the original plan..it just didn't work out. So off with all 5 kids I go to this meeting, Molly is tired and cranky, Delilah is hungry, and Meghan and Stephen are just being pains in my butt. Things are going ok, until Meghan and Stephen decided to "tie up the room" and each other. Oh, and the icing on the cake..the school psych. Man was she a treat!! NOT!!

Well, long story short, Caleb is doing great, so great in fact that it makes it hard to qualify him for services! While I know that this IS a good thing, it suck at the same time! Here's hoping for some sort of resolution!

Delilah's Day at the Races

Well since today was my birthday, my sweetheart of a hubby thought that it would be fun to get ticket to the NHRA Winter Nationals at the AutoClub Speeday at Pomona for me. My 1st thought was, gee that's great but what about Delilah??? But since this IS Sam we are talking about..and the "races", he was WAYYYYYY ahead of me on this one. The simply AWESOME husband that he is, got us Suite Tickets!! Wahoooo!! That means, all the fun and none of the noise!!

So Delilah got to attend her very 1st NHRA race!! Boy did this girl have fun. From the moment that we got out of the car you could hear the racecars staging and heading down to pit road...she was on the edge of her seat. She just could not get enough of looking around and seeing all the sights! She would crane her whole little body to see everytime she heard a car start up, or head down Pit Road. It was the most awesome thing ever! I think that she was more excited than Sam and I were to be there.

Then when we got into the suite, and we sat her up on the counter so that she could see out. The cool thing about the suite that AAA has, is that it is right behind the starting line, so all the cars are lining up on pit road right in front of where we are at. She was totally into it, she watched and watched and watched. The noise didn't bug her, you can still hear quite a bit, it's just not going to make you deaf or anything...she would get this huge goofy grin on her face, then look back at whom ever was holding her. We (Sam and I) got some really cute pictures and videos of her on my ph.
I know that Sam and I can't wait to take her again, as well as the other kids. Now the count is 3 down and 2 to go!! Everyone has gone with the exception of Molly and Caleb. But to be honest, I am not sure how either one of them would do...we'll just have to see!
