Two down and one to go

Let me recount the weekend of fun for us. Started with Tyler getting his stitches out on Friday and that went as well as could be expected. Saturday was a great day as the kids went to my parents house for the night as Dana and I had a wedding to go to. Oh the joys of sleeping in. Just to think that only 5 years ago I could sleep in until 10 or so and now sleeping in means 7 or 8. At what age do kids start getting there own breakfast. I am tempted at times just to leave the cereal on the counter and advises the boys to do whatever they want as long as they leave daddy alone. Now I am rambling and must be stopped. OK the point of this whole thing is that Sunday came around and was another gloomy day outside so it was spent mostly indoors. Once little Carson woke up from his nap he was playing around upstairs while mommy was getting ready for church that night. As daddy was watching him from the bottom of the steps he decided to grab onto the statue, that sits on top of a pedestal, and sit down. Well that was not a good idea as it fell and conked him on the head. I ran up the stairs to try and stop it from falling but was there too late and of course it cut his head open and started to bleed. So within 2 weeks time we have had one kid with 3 stitches in his head and another with a staple in his head. I feel like we will be getting a call from social services soon. It is not a good time to be a kid in our house. I am about ready to wrap Nate in bubble wrap as it does not look good for his chances of escaping this dreaded black cloud of injuries that seams to be lingering over our house. Wish us all luck to get through this month.

Peace out

First day of School

I was a little worried about how the first day of school would go for the boys as they both said they didn't want to go but the troopers they are had no complaints and were excited to go back. Nathan advised me that they read a Owl book and had a snack. Snacks are a good thing. Tyler also had a good and bad day as he said school was fun but got a little to excited and hit his head on the kitchen counter and split his head open. It required a trip to the doctor for some stitches. He was a trooper and got through it with flying colors. Good thing is that it is covered up by his hair so won't be noticeable.

Peace Out
