Tonight was a complicated night. M had a baseball game at 5:30. A had ballet class and rehearsal at 5:30. M went for a training run after her game with Daddy while I went to pick up A at ballet class and Imogene stayed home with N. Lots of moving parts tonight!

The exciting news is that the Giants won! I think this was their first official win of the season. They played very well. The other team was also very good and it was a close game. M had a few hits, including a double. All in all it was a very exciting game!

The little boy has gotten to be a lot more opinionated of late. When he wants something and it is taken away from him – a paintbrush, for example that he has been putting in his mouth – he gets VERY upset. He also is very strong. And I have noticed that right before he goes to bed, he sometimes gets VERY hyper. It's like he becomes overtired within a few minutes, and starts cruising the couch and racing up to Lucky and laughing and being very sloppy. He has done it a few times this past week – it's a sign (like pulling on his ear) that he is ready for bed.

Uncle Jonathan, Aunt Liz, Sarah and Rachel have gotten a new puppy (sadly, their dog Bo(eing) died on May 4). They got a Great Dane puppy named Dot. Dot is only about 8 weeks old but has enormous ears and paws, and is going to be 150+ pounds. She is adorable.
