Making a Positive out of a Negative...

A couple weeks ago DJ got a small tear in one of his leg muscles while pitching and has been on the DL ever since. He has been working hard at getting his leg back in shape so he can begin to pitch but in the mean time we are loving his new schedule. His rehab schedule consists of NO traveling and much better hours. His normal schedule usually has him on the road for days or only home for a few hours every morning. He rarely would make it home to say goodnight to the kids. But the past few weeks we have gotten to see a lot more of him :) He is gone all morning but is home before nap time! It has been really nice being able to go do things, spend time together, and eat dinner as a family. Even though DJ is exhausted from having to wake up so early in the morning and from the kids wanting all of his attention, we sure love having him home more! But we also really can't wait for him to get back to pitching... we love watching the games and cheering for him! I'm sure we will be back to baseball season reality in a few weeks :)

Here are some pictures of the last few weeks!

Hanging out down at the beach.





Going out with Daddy to the park and to look at the fish in pond at the nearby school.







Happy to be hanging out with Daddy!




Loving all of Daddy's attention!
