Another Busy Day..

There is never a dull moment in our house ... not since Lizzie came that is! Here is the latest update:


Saturday night, March 17, we were finishing up dinner. Guy and I were cleaning up the dishes and Miss Lizzie was watching us. We have a half wall that separates the eat in part of the kitchen from the actual cooking part of the kitchen. Well, I guess you can see where this is going. Next thing I know, I hear this loud bang and then the screaming started. She fell of the chair and cracked the back of her head on the leg of our kitchen table. Guy grabbed her and gave her to me. I could already feel the wetness in her hair. After getting a wet paper towel, I could see the blood. We quickly grabbed what we needed and off we went to the hospital. After a 4 hour wait -- yes 4 hours, the pediatrician came and said that it was our choice whether or not we wanted a staple put on the wound. The wound was about 1/2 long and about 1/4 inch wide. He said that he would not be able to numb the area before the staple went in and the difference would be a really skinny scar or a skinny scar. We opted not to do anything but neosporin. Well it is now over a week later and she is fine. We of course, lost some of our hair over worry. She knows now that if she hops from chair to chair she can get a boo-boo on her head!


Here is a cute picture of my daughter and how busy a 2 1/2 year old can be. Out of the blue, she decided to put her shoes on. I said to her, where are you going? She said, I am taking baby Cathy for a walk. The taffy went in her mouth. Her pocketbook went on her arm and off she went taking her baby for a walk around the house. Oh, by the way, baby Cathy must wear all of the clothes she has at all times...even if it stretches them out of shape.

Oh no! Poor Lizzie and poor Mommy and Daddy making a trip to the ER! I'm so glad to hear that she's doing fine and didn't need the staple. Eeeew!

I love her walking baby Cathy. You do realize that she's dressing the baby the Chinese way...with lots of layers! Too cute!
