I wanted to share some summer randomness before I begin the posts about our family of 4. Before Lizzie Kate arrived, we wanted to squeeze in as much Ellie time as possible. Though we knew she would be a wonderful big sister, we also wanted to make sure that she didn't feel overshadowed by the new addition.
The above picture was taken while fishing one evening. I love the look of concentration on her face, hence the tongue sticking out while casting the fishing pole. When in deep concentration or thought, her tongue is out of her mouth. During the school year, her lips become so chapped.
Ellie also played league ball again this year. She was able to move up to coach-pitch softball and played with a great group of young girls that improved so much over the season. I don't have any photos of the regular season play because being the coach's wife means the unspoken task of keeping the score book, but I plan on getting action pictures with this week's upcoming All-Star tournaments. I did take my camera to last night's practice scrimmage. Capturing a sweating Ellie with blue eyes perfectly matching her jersey makes my heart smile. She is playing the catcher position and her wet, sweaty hair is proof that it is rather warm with the equipment. Good Luck to the North Gibson 8U All Star Softball team this weekend!
