Kate's 1st Baseball Game

Yesterday afternoon, I was graciously given 3 tickets to the Rangers v. Yankees baseball game that night. My brother- who is a huge Yankees fan- just happened to be in town and he has NEVER been to a baseball game! So, I thought~ this is perfect! I left work early to rush home, change, pick up Kate and take the whole gang to the game. Daddy had pulled out Kate's pink Rangers hat and her pink Yankees t-shirt (a gift from Uncle Aaron). Everything was perfect... until I got the phone call. It was Kate's school~ she has a 102 degree fever~ can I come pick her up? My poor munchkin. There was no way I was taking her to the game now. With the heat wave here in Dallas and Kate's fever, she may have exploded! So Kate and Mommy stayed home, while Daddy, Uncle Aaron and Uncle Steve went to the game. Kate didn't have any other symptoms, she just generally felt bad. After she had a Pedialite Popsicle, she put her blanket on the floor in the kitchen and laid her head down. Apparently she was just too tired to get the rest of her body down to the floor, so she just stood there-- butt in the air-- head on the floor-- just like an ostrich! That can't be comfortable. After pondering her for 2 minutes, waiting for her to lay the rest of her body down, I finally had to pick her up. Hopefully she will feel better soon.

You never know what to expect with children, fine one minute sick the next. She will have plenty of baseball games to go to. Good thing she is too young to remember.
Good job Kate's Mom.
I love you all

Hope Kate is feeling better. Now that the Cowboys are playing their first pre-season game she is going to be undecided which to watch..FOOTBALL or baseball. She told me when I saw her last that she is a COWBOYS fan for sure, just like Grandma Linda.
We Love All of You,
