Spring Break @ the Ralls' Place

Spring Break is almost over for us. Which I seriously didn't get a BREAK! Jamie worked and the boys and I just hung out.
*Monday- I was up at 5:45 to get Megan, my niece. She stays with us while her dad is at work. Dayton had an appointment with the ENT at Talihana. The ENT said that the knot that comes and goes is a lymph node nothing they can do about. WHAT?

**Also when Jamie got home from work Dayton wanted to practice baseball. Here's what happened Dayton and Jamie were playing catch and then they yelled for me to watch. It's gonna be a high ball and then it smacks Dayton right in the forehead.

It was a real baseball too! It made a THUMP!



*This is Kendri, my sister Valerie's niece. She called needing a babysitter for her so of course I said that I would keep her. She is around 18 mos. and wears 4t or 5t outfits. So guess what we did? We went for a walk. She was really an okay kiddo. After she threw up on me and fought about taking a bath.

*Tuesday-Megan came over again. So the day started at 5:45 when she got here. We went to Mena and got a new dryer because my other one was making this horrible screeching noise. I had to get it out of here. Dayton and I played catch for awhile. I think he's gonna be pretty good. We bought the movie "Bolt!" We liked it. Gavin came over and he spent the night.

Megan and Dayton

*Wednesday- Just me and the boys again. On this day we took a 4 mile walk. Which wasn't really all that bad. The older 2 boys complained more than poor little Ol'Braylen. Then they played or should I say the fought about everything. While I cleaned house. Then off to Chruch. Gavin also stayed the night again. Which doesn't happen much anymore.



*Thursday- Another day that started early. Gavin had a dentist appointment in Ft.Smith. His mom picked him up at 8:00 a.m. Jamie worked all night so he needed to sleep so what were we going to do while he sleeps? O' I know another 4 mile walk. Yeah I'm crazy. This time it was just Dayton, Braylen and I. While we were walking I had to keep yelling at Dayton to stay on our side of the road. And this is Braylen's response to that, " yeah Dayton you will get ran over and then It will be just me, right mommy?" Then he says "then I wont have anyone to fight with." I'm fillin' some "Brotherly Love" aren't you?


*Also Thursday night Gavin had baseball practice at DeQueen and Jamie took him. Around 8:30 or so Jamie calls and says that we are under a tornado watch. So I get out the emergancy candles and wait. Hoping that they make it home okay. Then the phone rings again and it's Jamie saying that the radio said that the tornado would be at grannis- wickes area around 9:00 by this time Jamie is at Gillham and it is 8:55. I tell Dayton and Braylen about the tornado and all Braylen kept asking was "when is the pornado coming?"



*Friday- Just the boys and me again. I know we are always together. No breaks when your kiddos don't have grandparents. Another long story, lets not go there. We had errands to run at Mena, which involved a lot of waiting. Which is not good for the boys. They have trouble being still for a few seconds. Lol! So the errands are done and still time to get in some spring\easter pictures. With a bribe to go to the park at vandervoort. Win-Win for me, I can handle that.
