Well, basketball season is almost over. Playoffs start next week but it's essentially over for me because I might not see another game this year. This time of year is hard because it gets busier for Matt which means more chaos for me in helping him stay organized. It's hard not to plan on going to the gym a couple nights a week. I just hope he gets all these recruits. Life will be so much more pleasant.
I posted some pictures of Diana on twopeas so check them out. They are fun!

Dah-purrr
We think Diana said her first word today. We were getting ready to change her diaper and she was saying "Dah-purr" as we were walking up the stairs. We didn't think anything of it until we realized it was all she was saying for about a minute. I asked Matt if she was saying diaper and he said he thought she was. We asked her to say "diaper" and she kept saying it. She saw how excited we were and she got excited and just kept saying it. Who knows if she said it anymore today or if she will ever say it again, but it was cool!
The basketball season ends this week. There will probably be playoffs, but the regular season ends on Friday with sophomore night. It's a busy week too because we are trying to get the highlight film closed down and since Matt rejected my song choices, it's back to the drawing board and iTunes this week. :)

I hate losing
We lost to Contra Costa. They were just better, but the girls fought hard and gave it all they had. I was very proud, but I hate losing.
There was a big crowd, all three papers covered it and there were a lot of recruits there. We have four games left now and have to win them all to get a playoff spot. Cross those fingers!
Matt and I are headed to LA this weekend. Oops, I hope Kate doesn't read this. :) Oh well. Surprise!
Oh, in addition to being able to signal for three pointers, Diana can almost get the form down when you ask her to shoot free throws. It's hilarious! Matt taught her the correct shooting form the other night. I am pretty sure he did the same thing with Ryan when he was Diana's age. Look where it got him, he's got a sweet shot! :) Hi Ryan!

One down
Solano won tonight. Whew. They controlled the game and won by 14. My sister went to the game so it was nice for her to see the team and she texted me during the game.
So, the big game with Contra Costa on Friday. It's for first place so hopefully the girls show up and are ready for it. I am excited, but I will probably just stay for the first half and then come back to work. There is a feature on one of Matt's players in my paper on Thursday. I know it's a paid web site, but the story is really good!

A Nervous Week (Wreck)
Solano moved into a tie for first place on Wednesday. So, this week we play Yuba on Wednesday and Contra Costa on Friday. Big week...as big as they come. Think good thoughts for a couple hours (between 5:30-7:30 p.m.) those two days and feel free to call me on my cell to get the score. I will be at work both nights so you can call me at work too. Matt's manager will be texting me with updates.
Matt and the team are really excited about the opportunity to win another BVC title, but I just sit back and let things happen. I don't want to get all excited and then...well, you know.
Let the fun begin!!!!!!!!!

Stack me up!
Big news of the day: Diana stacked eight square blocks today all by herself. She did it on the living room table and just kept going back for more until she couldn't reach the top anymore. She was EXTREMELY proud of herself and we exchanged high fives after six, seven and eight! Then, she celebrated by knocking them down.
I am going to be proud mom and mention that just the other day I was reading in the "What to expect" book that kids her age are supposed to stack four or five blocks! I know it doesn't really matter, but eight!!!! She was reaching way up there! The best part was the pride she had in herself. To see a 19-month-old beam like that was a great feeling for me!
Matt won again tonight. 14-12 and 5-1 in conference. Eagerly awaiting the rematch with Contra Costa but have one more game next week before that one. Go Falcons!

Warming up
Finally, back to good ole California sunshine. Matt, Diana and I had a picnic at the park this afternoon before I went to work. Diana went down the slide (she loves the slide) and walked around on the bark. She likes to pick up the bark and put it in this little crane toy they have at the park. She loves to get dirty!
Back to the slide thing. I put her on it last week after our walk and she just kept asking me to put her on it. I sit her at the top and she slides right on down by herself and laughs. Keep in mind that it's a small slide. I am taller than the slide so it's not like she is on it forever. She can't get enough though!
I got my new lens last night. I used it a little this morning, but I can't wait to use it on Matt's games. It's teenie tiny! Small lens, lots of power!
Matt starts school on Monday...No more reading the paper in bed in the morning for him! It's been fun the last month because I go get Diana and bring her in so she can "read" the paper with Daddy in bed for a couple minutes before breakfast. She might be kinda sad about that. Summer will be here before she knows it and she can have her newspaper time again!

Ordered a new lens
I ordered my new lens for my digital camera last night. I have no idea when it is coming, but I am really excited to use it when it does eventually get here. I just hope that it gets here before basketball season is over. Otherwise, it's almost a waste and I will have to wait so very long to get the real purpose of it.
Matt has two games this week. I actually get to go to the game on Wednesday. They play Mendocino...all these games are big games. I just like to see the girls compete, they are good kids.
Diana is busy as ever. The girl is non-stop! I like to think that watching her inspires me to play with her and try to get some exercise keeping her entertained, but she wears me out some days. We will go for our walk tomorrow after lunch. It's only supposed to get up to 50 degrees as the high, but sunny, so we'll go out for 40 minutes, go to the park and then back home for a little TV and then a nap.
We are going to help Matt recruit tomorrow night - Vanden vs. Rodriguez. He needs to get these four girls from Vanden. Two of them are pretty sure they are coming, but the other two are not for sure yet. Cross your fingers, they are really good.

This is not easy!
It's hard keeping up with this blog! I apologize to the family for not keeping you updated on our lives. Matt's season is in full swing (games twice a week, recruiting on the other days), my business is extremely busy and Diana is just busy! Oh yeah, and I am working while Matt is on semester break. How do I get into that community college scene?
Matt's team is 1-1 in conference, 10-12 overall. We lost to Contra Costa tonight. Bummer. It was ugly...Actually, I can't say that because I wasn't there. But Matt didn't offer any quotes to the local newspaper (won't say which one) so we'll never know. :P
Diana did the funniest thing today. We were playing in her playroom waiting for Jill to come and I was sitting on the floor shooting baskets. She went to look for her mini-USF basketball, found it and asked me to shoot with it. (For some reason, she likes me to shoot with the little one rather than the ball the hoop came with. Maybe she thinks I need all the help I can get).
Anyway, I asked her to give the mini basketball to Franny (her Cabbage Patch doll) and let her shoot with it. She looked at me a second, walked over to Franny, picked her by her hair (caveman style), touched the ball to Franny's hand and then walked over to the hoop and tried to shoot it. She did it twice more and I just laughed so hard.
She also knows how to put up one finger when you ask her how old she is. Thanks to Matt's persistance on that one!

The start of conference
Solano opened conference play with a win tonight. 74-44. Pretty good, Matt was pleased with the way his team played. Now, they have a bye on Friday and Contra Costa on Wednesday. It's a big one. I think the girls will get fired up for it...I hope.
New Year's went well. I got off work early and then had the next two days off. It felt like I had three days off because I stayed up so late on Sunday night. It was like having a vacation. I never realized how much I enjoy having two days off in a row.
We went to the San Francisco-Nevada game on Tuesday. What fun. Diana was awesome! She played by herself pretty much the whole game. We sat over in the corner so she had room to move around. She played with her purse (thanks Badillas!) and her books and sat around. After the game, she ran around on the court with her mini-basketball throwing it all over the court and chasing it. She was cracking up. She drew the attention of SO MANY people that were standing around talking to family members. One USF player even chased after the ball for her one time. It was pretty fun. She got to meet Auntie Coach (Kim) for the second time. She met her last year when Nevada played at San Jose State, but she was little. Kim loved her (as well she should). :)
We got to talk to Kim before the game because we got to the gym right as Nevada pulled up to the gym. Perfect timing! It was a great night.

Nearing the end
I haven't been very good about updating this lately. I've been so busy with work (we are down two staffers because they both took nearly two-week vacations) and my side-job (I have two projects in the works right now). I haven't even had time to post photos on the photosite from Matt's games. I have some from the Hartnell game and the Cypress game last night.
What a game that was last night. We won in overtime by 2! It was so exciting. We were down 12 in the first half and 10 in the second. I believe that's what it was. I am bad, I never pay attention to the score. I just know we were losing. The girls played really hard and fought back so well. Matt did a superb coaching job too. He didn't oversub, which he tends to do sometimes. His girls are in great shape and he put the right subs in at the right time! Good job!
I am pretty sure they lost to Ohlone tonight. The score was 52-20 at half. That's a big deficit to have to overcome. The game was over about an hour and a half ago and he still hasn't called. That's usually not a good sign. He probably piled the girls in the vans and drove straight home.
I just found out tonight that I don't have to work New Year's Day. It'll be nice to sit at home and play with Diana and hang out with Matt all day. Then, I have Tuesday off too. Yipee!

It was great!
What a great Christmas! Diana got some great presents that we played with this morning! Ha ha!Seriously though, she got a basketball hoop from Daddy that Daddy was practicing his couch jump shot on all day. Luckily, nothing got knocked over, but I am pretty sure that Diana will be under the impression that playing basketball indoors is OK.
She loved her stocking this morning! Santa brought her some $1 items from Target that she didn't let go of all day. Now I know what to tell Santa to put in her stocking for years to come..."Just go to the dollar store Santa!" Diana just had a wonderful day! She played hard and laughed even harder, she was definitely in the Christmas spirit!
We got a ton of pictures so I will have to email them out to everyone soon. Matt is off from school for a couple weeks so that will be nice, but I am working and Matt has practice and games. He plays on Thursday at 4 p.m. at the Gervasoni tourney at DeAnza College. Looking forward to that because I actually get to go! We are also looking forward to Aunt Debbie's arrival on New Year's Eve! Big Party! :)
I hope everyone had a great Christmas and is ready for a big shopping day Tuesday!

Merry Christmas
I am at work. But I don't mind because I am off in 45 minutes. Just let this 49ers game get over quick!
I am real excited to get over to my dad's for Christmas celebration with the family. I hope everyone has a good time with their own celebrations this week. I wish we could see more family, but it was real nice to see everyone last weekend and have some Christmas celebrations.
If you are traveling, do it safely. When you ring in the new year, do it safely but have a great time!

It's beginning to look like Christmas
There is a street by my house that has about 10 houses and all of them have lights! It's so fun to drive by and look. We might take Diana there Sunday night. She has to see all the lights. It's great that it's so close to our street too. That way we don't have to drive all the way over to Candy Cane lane and sit in traffic to see lights.
I was beginning to think that people just don't have time to put lights on their houses, but I guess people wait and turn them on closer to Christmas to save on the PG&E bill. Smart.
Two more days...I am excited. Excited because Diana is getting more practice opening presents. She opened a package from her babysitter, Jill, today. Cute little sweat outfit and some books, of course. Diana was more interested in the box and the paper, but she loves her new book, too. Poor Jill is going to be reading it for days!
I have to work this weekend, but I think it will go by fast.

Christmas came early
Diana got some practice the last couple days opening presents.
First, it was presents from the Badillas. The Tickle Me Elmo Extreme battery is almost out because it's been used so much in the last couple days. That thing is hilarious! A must have! Diana mostly played with the box – and still does. But the box is pretty fun in its own right.
Today, Papa John and Gramma Judy came up and had Christmas with us. Diana did pretty good. Once I asked her to "help mommy" with the boxes, she was more than willing to tear the paper off. She did OK. She got some great toys and clothes. My fave so far though are the towels. Big ole towels with her name on it. Something she really needed. She was outgrowing the baby towels she got when she was a baby. She would shiver out of the bath because she wasn't all the way covered. It was sad, really. She also got a pink roller suitcase with her name on it. Awesome for all those trips she'll be taking to family members' houses.
I can't wait for Xmas now. Six more days! I still have a lot of shopping to do but hoepfully I can do it in the daytime and avoid the crowds.
The weather here is frightful! Tomorrow: 49 high 27 low. Brrrr! I had to laugh tonight when I read about the Arizona State women's basketball team playing an outdoor game in Phoenix. The fans in the stands were bundled up, according to the story on AP, 'like Packers fans at Lambeau Field.' The temp in Phoenix at tip-off? 56 degrees. I woulda been wearing shorts!

Wanna hear something gross?
I called someone tonight to do an interview and couldn't control my cough. I was covering up the phone, drinking water while she was talking and trying not to gag. She finally suggested me calling her back this weekend. How horribly embarrasing is that? I went to the bathroom where I coughed for another five minutes. I have never had this bad of a cough. It's a little out of control. I went to the doc on Wednesday and she did a strep test. I didn't hear anything back from the lab so I am assuming I am OK, just whatever is going around is what I have.
On another note, Solano beat Hartnell Wednesday. Yay! 7-9. Matt said that he is very happy with that record.
We are going to have a Xmas card this year. Lots of people are asking and we will get one out soon. The letter is written, sitting on the computer upstairs waiting for changes to be made and for it to be printed out. We have to get together for a family photo too and that seems to be near impossible. Busy time of year.

O Christmas Tree
We got our Christmas Tree last night – at Raley's.
There's just something completely wrong about this, but Matt assured me that in the future, we will go and chop one down. It's a good thing we are honest people because we could've very easily drove out of the Raley's parking lot after Matt tied the tree to the top of the car. We went back inside though, got some sandwiches and hot chocolate and paid for the tree.
I slowly drove back home in a panic that the tree would fall off during the three minutes that it takes to get from Raley's to home. I suggested that Matt stick his arm out of the window and hold on to it, but he just laughed. I was serious.
It looks good though. It's in Diana's play room. We just moved things around and there it is. She didn't touch it at all so I am hoping that stays true for the next three or four weeks.
Matt's team is playing in the Showdown right now. They were down one at half (20-19)...Snore!!

What a Day
Solano lost. It was close, then it wasn't. Hopefully, we can get back on track on Friday at the Showdown. I love the Showdown, I just wish I didn't have to work during it. I love tournaments, it's fun to see other teams come to games and watch them have fun together. I especially love taking my dinner breaks in the hospitality room. Matt and his assistants put together the best hospitality room!
Grand V is going to have playdates with Diana on friday and saturday so they won't be able to see any games until Sunday. Aunt Michelle is coming down though and she said she doesn't even mind sitting by herself watching the game. Poor thing!

Back to Reality
Matt's coming home tomorrow. I have mixed feelings. :)
Diana and I have had such a wonderful four days together. We have laughed more than we have ever laughed together. Most of it is because she is 1 1/2 now and she's just at a very fun age and a very fun girl to begin with. Everything is fun with her.
Grand V spent some real good quality time with her as well and they laughed a ton too. Diana and I didn't really go anywhere (except over to a local high school to take some photos this morning). We just stayed around the house and played with her puzzles, her basketball, her books, etc. She laughed at me while I was in the shower this morning. She wasn't quite sure what to think of all that, but she laughed after a while.
I am excited for Matt to come home and see her. It was a rough weekend. Solano lost to Reedley today by six points. We are 4-7 now...Matt hates losing. He thinks that he isn't doing a good job. But, he's a perfectionist and is very hard on himself. Sometimes, I don't think that I am doing a good job being supportive. Especially when I am three hours away. I wish I could be there to help him out. It's hard to do that over the phone.
Maybe we will get our Christmas tree this week. That'll be fun. Then again, Solano has a big game Wednesday and the Showdown this weekend and the week leading up to that is always crazy.
It's been cold here...Anywhere else? It's supposed to be 54 on Thursday. Yikes. I will staying inside that day!

I am excited for Matt to come home and see her. It was a rough weekend. Solano lost to Reedley today by six points. We are 4-7 now...Matt hates losing. He thinks that he isn't doing a good job. But, he's a perfectionist and is very hard on himself. Sometimes, I don't think that I am doing a good job being supportive. Especially when I am three hours away. I wish I could be there to help him out. It's hard to do that over the phone.
Maybe we will get our Christmas tree this week. That'll be fun. Then again, Solano has a big game Wednesday and the Showdown this weekend and the week leading up to that is always crazy.
It's been cold here...Anywhere else? It's supposed to be 54 on Thursday. Yikes. I will staying inside that day!

Argh, a loss
Solano lost to LA Valley tonight by two. LA Valley hit the game-winning shot with seven seconds left. Matt said his team didn't play well until the final five minutes of the game. Bummer.
His manager/scorekeeper was kind enough to text message me at halftime of the game with the score.
Text messaging comes in very handy during this time of year. I just hope he always has nice managers who are willing to keep me in the loop. I hate just sitting around waiting for a phone call or a text from Matt about the score. I hate not being able to go to as many games but for now, that's how it is. :)
