Sweeping Two Week Sum Up

We started off last week with an Egg Challenge at the Allergist office.  This is right after his first spec of egg since he was 1!  The last time he had eggs he was in a high chair in our house in Midlothian, TX!  The first round was a tiny spec - almost too small to even eat . . wait 15 min. Then round 2 - a little bigger spec . .  wait - then it happened, that funny look on his face, a bit of panic in his eyes, rushing around of the doctor and nurse, instant meds :( His throat began to swell.  Totally disappointed.  This boy was yearning for some more steps toward normal eating - not this year, though. He has kept his head up  - it's nothing he can't handle.  He has been a little skittish of eating out and anything that's not real familiar to him since then - but he knows the signs and we are armed at all times with benadryl and epipen - really nothing has changed - we just got a little reminder of what food allergies are all about. 
 Tuesday night was the 3rd grade music program, Evan's Tball game and football practices - needless to say we had to split duty this night!  Kyler wasn't super into the musical - but he moved his lips and cooperated :) - not a great pic - Kyler is on the back row with a hat on.  He would have chosen to go to football practice if given the choice :)
 On Wednesday morning Avery and Miranda and I headed to Shreveport to see Mim.  It was a pretty good little drive but Avery was a traveling champ!  I didn't get many pictures - but it sure was good to see Mim doing so well after her surgery - she's a champ herself!  We spent the night and had a good visit with Mim and Uncle Mike - then headed back to NWA, super baby in tow and dodging storm systems all the way.
 Oh . .  just a regular Friday night at the Pitts house - climbing the walls :).  The fact that my children even THINK to do this (pretty sure Miranda and I never thought to do that as kiddos) boggles my mind.
Then a Saturday of football!


Pop and CiCi were there to cheer on the boys
 It's hard to tell the boys apart in pics unless you can see their number - this is JP.

And of course there were spectator tackle piles going on as well. 
On Sunday Kerry, Jayden and Evan took the new wave runners to the lake house for Pop and Kerry to do some work on them.  It was COLD - just to give the guys a little credit for their water sports work - probably not as fun as it would be in the summer! Then, we all met up at Crystal Bridges for our Spring Family Pic session - pics to come soon!
The boys had special days at school with Pop and CiCi and got checked out early and lunch dates with them.  Kyler got to meet up on his day with Me and Avery while Auntie M got her hair done.  I'm hoping CiCi got a few pics at school of the cuteness that occurred there!
There you go, a sweeping sum up of 2 more April weeks!  Somehow I missed BOTH weeks of Evan's Tball games!  I was at Kyler's musical one week and Kyler had to have a honking tooth pulled the day of the other - I WILL get some tball action shots before the end of the season!  Onward to a Saturday of Football!
