Running out of GAS

Hello all-
What an interesting week already. Some of my friends that live outside of the Southeast cannot relate to this post. Yesterday I spent an hour in line to try to get gasoline in my car only to be denied before getting anywhere near the pump. The gas crisis here in the south was at its worst point yesterday in my area. I was literally car number 60 when they ran out of gas at the station. I can only imagine what it is like for my friends around Atlanta that have hectic commutes. Isabella's school cancelled their field trip for this week due to the shortage. Mike went in search of gas last night (afterhours) and came up empty. He drove all the way over to the Mall of GA, then back down Sugarloaf Pkwy, etc. Some good news though, Mike found gas this morning (6am) and they were not limiting the amount you could pump. Also great news is that they had premium gas, which is a great sign since that has not been available here in the last two weeks. So at least we have one car with gas and Mike will be able to get to work this week. Anyway, maybe things will be better today??? I will post more later. I have 1/4 of a tank so Isabella should be able to get to school today.

Not too much going on...

Well we are on week # 2 of Mike being sick. He finally went to the doctor and he has some type of bug. It has been relatively quite here this weekend needless to say. Isabella had soccer today and she scored one goal. Her Grandparents are back in town from their 2 week excursion to Italy, Greece and Turkey. We are glad they are home safely. They did come back to no gas in the SE and were a little surprised to see no gas anywhere. Speaking of gas, Michael, my nephew is on a travelling baseball team. He is doing really well. I will have to dedicate a post to his stats and the gas prices my sister is encountering. Evan is still growing like a weed. He is starting to sleep through the night, which is WONDERFUL! Hold hands to the sky and yell, "AWE!" Mommy sure is HAPPY! Also - I took the parameters off of the comments section so you should be able to make comments without having to register first. I will post more soon!

Heads Up




Evan has been practicing "tummy time" and has been raising his head very well. Iasbella of course loves to help him out and thinks he is the funniest baby ever! She still calls him Baby Wilson.

Isabella's First Soccer Game - Her team is The Soccer Sharks




Isabella (#5 & in blue) had her 1st soccer game today. Mike was under the weather, but could not miss it. We all were out there and it was a beautiful day. Evan slept through the game, but that was ok.
Isabella did AWESOME. She scored three goals. See picture of her scoring! She was very excited. Her team, The Soccer Sharks won!
