Our family had baseball in some way, shape or form 5 days a week for the better part of June. Iris was in T-ball and played for three weeks. Felix's league team did very well during intraleague play and ultimately won the league championship! After league, the focus shifted to tournament ball. They played in three more tournaments since my last update: Port Edwards in June, Kaukauna and Pulaski in July. They won one game in the Port Edwards tournament, two in Kaukauna (Felix hit is first inside-the-park homer in one! Huge comeback in the other!), and two in Pulaski to come in 2nd in the Silver bracket at that tournament. We've watched the kids struggle and succeed, learned how to pack for tourney weekends, and all of us have made new friends. Aw.

Also, over the course of several appointments between the end of May and the beginning of July, my doctors and I determined that I might be better off without my gallbladder. So, I had that removed and went into recovery mode for the next two weeks. So far, no ill effects and I'm learning what/when I can/should eat. As with Iris's tooth, I'll spare you a picture...
And in the midst of all the craziness, Felix turned 9! We went to a Rafters game that night, and Felix got to throw an honorary pitch, which he thought was a strike. :o)
