The evening following Rachel's mini party at Jumpin, I had an unfortunate espn worthy collision in the outfield during our softball game which left me with a split open eyelid that required 5 stitches and even worse Doug and I had to leave the game! The infamous collision did result in a catch by my attacker (the shortstop) and in the end we won the game even playing 2 people down. The next day my eye was pretty much swollen shut and looked worse, but thankfully other than the throbbing from swelling was not painful. In the next couple days my eye began to look worse as the blackness pooled at the bottom of my eye socket, and still today 6 weeks later not all the way healed. Rachel's birthday came that week and we were having a party for her the following weekend, but we let her open her gifts that came in the mail from Oregon that evening.

the next morning...unfortunately the worse looking photos from the next few days are on my phone
Celebrating Rachel's birthday at the park with cupcakes and our play date friends
A new pink tricycle from the VanDyke grandparents, Caleb is just as excited as Rachel when the box opens
Trying out her new trike
Ooooh new clothes from Auntie Erin, quick Daddy help me try them on!
more clothes, these butterfly camo pants are a little too big still
Swimming suit, Oh I am in heaven...and then she had to try it on, which led to the rest of the evening in the hot tub...Happy Birthday Rachel!

Ah Dad, why is mommy making me try these girl pants on? I look ridiculous!
