May...Mother's Day

Still going strong with Tee Ball, CJ seems to enjoy it so we keep going.  His batting is improving, his team needs to work on their fielding skills.

Mother's Day-Sunday May 11th
Eric bought a lovely arrangement of tulips and we all went to Flag Ponds Beach.  It was a little dicey at first when we arrived, Emilie started to fuss and cry.  I thought she was hungry and wasn't getting enough to eat but in reality she just wanted to be put down for a nap and left alone. She slept for 2 hours.  This little lady LOVES her sleep and she doesn't need any one to hold her, rock her, or cuddle her to sleep.  There are times where I am sad that she doesn't want/need her Mommy to rock her to sleep but then it is nice Eric and I have some time together in the evenings after she goes to sleep.
After she woke from her nap on the beach I took her to the water and dipped her tiny piggies in the water.  She was quiet and then erupted in a distressed cry because it was too cold!  Her big brother reacted the same way when he first went to the beach.  We had a great time together.  CJ got a lot of Mommy and Daddy time on the beach playing beach ball and looking for shark teeth.  On our way home we stopped for a sweet treat before dinner, YUMMY!  First of the season, I had root beer float with the root beer ice and vanilla custard.  Eric then made dinner for us, shrimp with burgers and sweet potato fries.
