Day 89(39) Lets Hope Its Not Broke

March 28th: Zach had a 4:oo game today in the nice, cold wind. During the 2nd inning Zach tagged a kid out at 3rd to make the 3rd out. After the play he took his glove off and showed the umpire. The umpired called the coaches over. At first I thought he got cleated, if only we were so lucky. The coach held up his hand and is left thumb was sticking way out the side in not a normal position, he had a dislocation. The coach got it put back into place. Zach was up to bat and went out to bat. The umpire couldn't believe it. He said Zach was tough. Unfortunately he couldn't grip the bat and had to bunt getting thrown out at 1st. That was all of his playing for the day. The 3rd base umpire told us he thought he was going to pass out when he saw Zach's thumb. We plan on getting an X-ray in the morning at urgent care. I will let you know.

Day 88(38) Winter Wonderland

March 27th: I know it is not a lot of snow but I will tell you one thing, its cold out there! Hayden's school playground. I forgot he was the snack master of his class today so I had to go get snacks and bring them to him.
My view as I sat at the red light at 4th and Frankford just after I left Wal-Mart picking up those wonderful snacks!

Day 87(37) Traffic Jam

March 26th: This picture does not do justice to the crazy traffic that one encounters at Zach's middle school. It is crazy and you have to watch out for them all because you never know what they are going to do.

Day 86(36) More Meds


March 25th: Zach originally went to the doctor on Monday but we had a repeat appearance on Wednesday. After an X-Ray of his sinuses it was determined that he had a continuing sinus infection and his antibiotic was changed. I believe he is feeling better.

Day 85(35) This Old House

March 24th: On one of our many trips to Walgreens this week i snapped this shot. This is the house that has sat at the intersection of 4th and Slide. I know it has an official name but no sleep last night so I am too tired to look it up(maybe Shallowbottom can help me with this). I've always known it as where the Rip Griffin offices were. However, thanks to growth and progress the house was sold to the highest bidder and had to be moved so that Slide Rd could be expanded to Loop 289. Looks like they were pretty close to moving it.

Day 84(34) Plug It Up

March 23rd: Sorry this pic is so blurry. What is it u ask. Ear wax which Zach used in his baseball game that night. Went to the doctor and had a sinus and ear infection. I think the wax help some but with the wind blowing 80mph Monday night don't know if anything would have helped.

Day 83(33) Water Gun Fights!

March 22nd: A lazy, warm Sunday afternoon. Zach was headed to his buddy's house to play XBox Live when Hayden asked him to hang around the house for a while and play water gun fights. Even though Zach really didn't want to he gave in and did. I even think he had some fun. Thanks Zach for being a good big brother. Even though you fight with each other all the time, it will be these times you remember the most. Zach getting his aim on.
Hayden circling around trying to stay away from Zach.
Hayden takes this battling very serious!
