:My foot hurts, because it's green!"

Yesterday morning Tasia was standing on the kitchen floor, and she told me it hurt her foot. I had no idea why that would hurt her foot, but her response was..."It hurts, because my foots green!". HUH??? I looked at the bottom of her foot, and she had this hard, green ball on her heel. A couple of weeks ago she had stepped on something (she said it was glass), and I had checked her out and couldn't see anything in there so I cleaned her up and thought everything was fine. Apparently, I was wrong! We took her to the dr, and after taking x-rays and seeing that something was there they strapped my baby to a papoose board (a backboard with straps to hold them in tight like a burrito, so they can't move), numbed her foot, made a small incision and went in to find 2 small pieces of glass :( As she was strapped to the board and numbing her foot she was crying and telling me "Mommy it hurts", and it took all I had not to cry. I hate to see my babies in pain! When she was done the dr gave her a popsicle, and sent her on her way. They didn't stitch it up in case there are more small pieces in there that need to work their way out. She was numb until after she fell asleep last night, and says her foot doesn't even hurt today. She's a tough girl!!!

Matrix Cheer

I didn't get any really good pics myself from the 4th, because my camera isn't working :( I did get these from a few friends though. I really do love the group of girls we have! They are so much fun to be around.


We had to have a pic of the back of their shirts. They say "Stuntin is a habit"

Syd's so tiny next to all the other girls in the older group (she's 3rd from the right on the bottom row...not counting the little girl out there lol)

There's my little Tasia!

We had a ton of fun in the parade. Quality donated this nice truck to us. We listened to the same songs over and over, and danced to them the whole way through. We had candy, but the little girls decided to throw WAY too much of it at the very beginning of the parade, so we were pretty much out by the time we turned onto Main Street lol So sorry to all of you that didn't get candy from us!
