Game Day

Today is game day. I cannot believe the NCAAs are here. Tonight the women's field of 60 will get cut to 32 and tomorrow night there will only be 16 remaining. Can the Pointers make another run to the Sweet 16? Let's hope so. Maryville will be a tough match up for us tonight. Especiall with a few of our players having a bit of a bug, but I know they can pull through. It's win or go home and I think we all remember to well how awful it felt to go home last year. I couldn't think of a better way to calm game day jitters than with a little blogging.

Well, another bout of the pukes ended Brody up in the doctor's office the other day. I really think that his puking has something to do with drinking too much, too fast. Looking back at the daycare sign out sheet, he had 7 oz. at 5:00 PM, ate supper at home at 6:00 PM, and another 7 oz. at 7:30 PM only to throw up his entire bottle. Once he was done, he was happy as could be. However, the doctor did say along with his cold,he seems to have a little stomach bug and an ear infection. It's the first one either boy has had that we know of. She said that it wasn't bad at all, and no need to worry since it had not really been affecting him. She did go on to say that this ear infection could be causing him to throw up because it's near the "vomit center" in his brain. That was a little weird to me, but what do I know. She's not the boys ped, we couldn't get in to see him. We'll just keep on trucking, but we haven't had a bad poop or puke since Wednesday night. Hopefully it's finally over.

The boys attended their first women's hockey game a few weeks back to watch the Pointers take on Gustavus Adolphus. It was a defensive battle, and ended up being a 0-0 tie. It doesn't mean that the boys didn't have a great time watching "Auntie Ann" coach her team in a great game. Of course "Auntie Kelly" had to get some cute pictures of the boys.

This is my favorite...Aidan is watching the game, but you see Brody's reflection in the glass...Something good must be going on here...

Following the puck, back and forth...back and forth...
