The Day #5 Laid a Goose Egg

Yesterday afternoon I was running errands.. and on that little errand jaunt I passed the hospital and LITERALLY thought.. "I haven't taken our kids to the emergency room since #2 was a baby!" 

You know what happens when a mom says that?

goose egg, knot on the head, head injury, child

Sweet #5 and his goose egg.

I took all my kids to church and #5 was running in the youth room.. tripped and hit his head on a chair.  The result is that huge goose egg. 

Here's what the goose egg looks like today.

PS That kid has some SERIOUS eyebrows

Epic Starwars Jedi Battle or #5 I Am Your Father

Santa brought #5 some kind of spinning light saber.  Which only means one thing…

Light Saber battles in the kitchen.

#5 is Luke Skywalker.

This would be Darth Vader, apparently, he's captured Yoda.

Yoda doesn't seem to mind.

I think they've reached an impasse.

No Luke Skywalkers or #5's were hurt in the making of this blog…

Epic battles make Yoda tired.

Brace Yourself.. Someone’s Been to the Orthodontist

I swore my children would not have braces. (Like I had any control over that.) I didn't have braces, but The Man.. he had SERIOUS braces.  I'm blaming my children's teeth on him.

Waiting…

 

They put this thing in his already very large mouth..

That's a lot of metal.. This kid has 22 + months of metal in his mouth.

This little muffin only has 11months of metal time… I have a funny feeling that she won't be smiling about 9:00pm tonight..

Done! They look cute huh?

Has It Really Been 9 months?

Nine months ago today I gave birth to the cutest little baby. All mother's say that, but really check out this kid… see how cute he is?

One of my all time FAVORITE photos.. #2 and #6.

He was 2 months early, and the doctors said he'd be behind a little.. (whatever that means)  He's been standing (by himself) for a month now.  He talks, says Mama, babbles and does this:

Pouts.. that's a pretty cute pouter.. don't you think?

Happy 9month Birthday #6
