Still here

Well, no pictures this post (sorry CB). I have not kept up well with the blogging lately. I guess things have been busy enough that I have spent my energy in other ways.

This past weekend I had to take DD and DS#3 with me to DS#1's soccer game in Austin. My lovely wife was on back-up call so I really couldn't leave the younger ones with her. DS#2 would have been okay in her office if she got called in. Unfortunately, DS#1's team doesn't play in games anywhere near their potential. This has been a disappointment to both players and parents. It is one of those things that parents start second-guessing the coach, etc. I have stayed pretty neutral, saying that I would have made different decisions if I were coach, but I am not and I trust the coach. The truth is, I know his coach is extremely frustrated at the team not translating practice into the games--possibly more frustrated than the complaining parents. We'll see what sort of changes are made this weekend.

In other news, DS#3 has been having a few difficult mornings lately. I am pretty sure it is related to teething as he has a low-grade temperature (sometimes) and is drooling all over the place. Usually when he is teething he gets very congested and this can make him pretty cranky. He is also becoming very, well, 2. His tantrums and screeches are really becoming something, um, amazing. Yes, I do have a few on tape to show him years from now.

Well, that is about it. I need to get all of our tax paperwork to the accountant and get that finished up. I will try to get more pictures up before the weekend.
