Our First NBA game!

 

Hi there,

 

I few days after my last post, we surprised dad by taking him to an NBA game (Pacers vs. Milwaukee Bucks). It was his first time (as well as our first time) watching an NBA game live! Dave, Karen, Kevin (Karen’s brother), Becky, and David (Johns) joined us. It was a good game! (Final score: Pacers 102-Bucks 78) I love how they entertain us during the breaks and time-outs. We even got a Dunkin Donuts gift card for being the loudest section! Oh well, some things don’t change… πŸ˜€
The game was in Indy, so we went in a few hours early and walked around downtown. (If you click on the pictures you can see them bigger.) We spent the night at Stephen Long’s place but unfortunately we didn’t have a chance to see him this time. But we loved his house! πŸ™‚ The reason we stayed in Indy for the night (other than the fact that the game was over around 9:30-10 pm and it would have been another at least 90 minutes to get home…) was that we were invited to Kevin’s (Karen’s brother’s) birthday party the next day (which was also in Indy).
The last time I was in Indy was over 2 years ago when I was pregnant with Amy, so it was good to see the city again. We took tons of pictures and a lot of videos. It was fun!
Amy was a little tired at the game
and so was Chris… πŸ™‚
March 25!!!
A day or two after we got home from Indy the weather decided to be silly and we had a lot of snow. (See picture on the right.) Amy enjoyed it, but I think she might have been the only one… πŸ™‚ The weather was quite chilly while dad was here (most of the time Amy had to wear winter jacket and winter hat), and about 4 days after he left, it was around 80 degrees for a week… We wear sweating in our summer dresses. This year the weather was very weird…

 

As you can see on the picture on the left, Amy likes my cooking. Or at least likes to make a huge mess out of it. But as long as it is gone from her plate at the end, I don’t care. πŸ™‚ Β She can eat so much spaghetti, it is crazy (just like her daddy). Though Chris is a lot cleaner after he is done… πŸ™‚

 

Amy is a very good eater, and she is not picky. I am convinced that she eats more than Chris or I do. But she is also extremely active, so I guess she needs all the energy she can get.
We are very proud of her and love her personality. We are blessed to have her! We taught her to say, “Mommy/Daddy may I have some _________ please?” But she doesn’t say it as a sentence, she says it word by word and pause each time she says a word. It is so cute. But she is very proud of herself once she gets to the “please” (and so are we!).
Dad also wanted to see WTHI’s building (where Chris works), so we went inside and Chris gave us a tour. πŸ™‚ This building is so much nicer than the other one was!
Since dad left, Amy looks at the videos he took everyday. She really misses “papi” (grandpa) but she has a lot of memories with him. Now we await “mami” (grandma) to come. She will be here in a couple of months!
I have three more weeks left from this semester and then I have 3 months off!!! I cannot wait! After the break I have 8 more weeks of school before I graduate! How exciting! πŸ™‚ Not sure what I will do once I am done, but I will definitely not be bored. Amy makes sure of that. πŸ™‚
God bless!
