    Had a good day today, it was quite warm outside, so we ended up playing outside quite a bit of it.  Headed to the river in the morning, and the kids started building a fort which  they did NOT want to leave.  CB had a early release day today, so Zeria had a early practice.  At 12:15 we took her to the gym, and the rest of us headed to the beach.

    Except there was an extreme high tide.  EXTREME.  LOL  We were walking across the very beginning of it on dry sand, and the wave got  big, so I climbed up on a two foot off the ground log to protect myself...it had been dry there it was safe.

    Snort I got wet up to my waist...

    And shortly thereafter Rainee scared the crap out of all of us by being way way up high on a log, when three rogue waves got very close to getting her.  In between the second and third Rob bailed down of the bank he was standing on grabbed Rainee threw her up the bank, and then jumped up behind her.  And I mean THREW her.

    She needless to say was screaming like a banshee.  It didn't help me any that I'd had a nightmare about tsnumani's last night.

    For breakfast Rainee had Marshmallow Maties, as we *thought* Rob was headed into town, and didn't have time to do breakfast.    She did great all morning, but we were outside, and she usually does better then.  

    After the wave incident we rescued Rainee due to asthma from screaming...which is rather understandable.  It was SCAREY.  We weren't on the ocean, just the strait, and the waves just don't act like those waves did.   LOL

    When we got home we had a late lunch of bologna sandwiches, and then headed back to the river.  But Rainee started melting down.  She was the one that wanted to go the most to the river, and suddenly she was exhausted, and with asthma.  So we had to do atrovent since we'd done albuterol less then 45 minutes earlier for the wave incident.  It got her calm, and she had a blast at the river.

    We had homemade mac & cheeze for dinner, which was delicious!

    Its 9:00 at night, and there have been NO night rescues for Rainee.  *cheers*  I even think t here asleep, but I may be celebrating early.  If I do have to rescue her I'll add it to the blog.

    I'm beginning to VERY much suspect bologna and hot dog meat.  The good news is its all gone, and there will be none until pay day.  LOL  And I may splurge and get some kind of lunch meat that is a wee more spendy just to test that theory.

  • Glad Rob was there and able to grab Rainee.  Waves can be really scary.

    odd fact: I couldn't eat hot dogs when I was pregnant with Julie- that was how I figured out I was pregnant.  I ate them before and since but not for those 10 months.

  • Wow, that is way to much scarey excitement for me.  Good think Rob was able to rescue his daughter.  Waves can be tricky things.  Have a nice weekend.

  • It can be really hard when some things we "should" eat are way more expensive than others, can't it?

  • Reminds me of that time with rissa? or Gabe and Gabe, I can't remember which.  But the wave snuck up on us and got you guys good!  I don't like scary waves!!
