Kensley's explanation of her boo-boo

Kensley has walked around for a couple days now, reminding me of what is on the back of her head & how it happened. I finally got her on video saying it.

She is better & the cut looks 10x better now. She hasn't even complained about it much until I lay her down to change her diaper. I guess it hurts because she reminds again "i bus-sed my hid on window at donalds".

McDonald's Mania

Okay, had a big scare tonight with Kensley. We were at Mickey D's for spirit night for the school. I was working the check-in table & had everything planned out perfectly as to how I was going to maneuver the rest of the night & get kid to or pick up kid from soccer practice. Just when you think all is going smoothly...bam... literally. Kensley fell in the booth at McD's. I'm thinking...No biggie, she fell, she's crying... mother's instinct... pick up kid. RED ALERT!!! When I picked her up, blood what gushing from her head. A friend was with me & I just held her while my friend inspected where the blood was coming from. She was screaming, I'm trying to calm her down, my friend it trying to see how big the cut is, people are crowding... you get the picture... pure chaos. Apparently she fell on just the right spot of a metal piece where the wall & window meet & busted open the back of her head. It was crazy for about 20 min, but plenty of people helped me between calling the doctor, scoping for a nurse in McD's, getting some meds for her & getting Chandler to soccer practice. Final evaluation: it was a bad cut but no one thought she needed to go to the er for stiches. She kept telling everyone "i bump hid on wee-dow at donalds" (that's toddler talk for I busted my head on the window at McDonald's). I brought her home & washed all the blood out of her hair & she acted fine. Hopefully she'll get some good rest tonight. I don't want to feel that way ever again.

Many faces of Carter

I've always thought Carter made some funny faces when he concentrates on something. It's really cute and I've been able to capture quite a few of them with him playing soccer this fall. Here's Carter's soccer page... (Chandler's will come later). Carter's team hasn't lost a game & Chandler's hasn't won one... oh well.

This was a goal, but this guy was in the way so I wasn't able to capture it very well.

How cute are they! Kensley thinks she's playing soccer too.
