Well, let's just say that life is not dull in this family! Saturday, we took the kids to the park for a bit (until I got sick) and played outside, etc. Our headlight went out in the van and when we priced how much it was going to cost to replace it, we decided to have my dad look at the actual light bulb. With just a little adjustment, it started to shine again and saved us over $100!
Before bathtime, Mr. C and Cinderella were playing in Mr. C's room when we heard a noise and heard Mr. C crying. Then, he refused to walk and was crawling around. We get the full story from Cinderella on how he jumped off his dresser and landed on his ankle. It was red and starting to swell. My parents and I took him to Children's ER to see if it was broken. While there, he was being rolled around in a wheelchair by an orderly who was taking him to get x-rays of his ankle. He looked up at the orderly and said "Go fast!" We ALL had a good chuckle about that! Thankfully, it was just severely sprained with fluid and he was ordered to stay off the foot (Ha Ha Ha Ha) and stay in an air cast for a few days. If you know my son, you know how he is not one to sit still and lounge around all day.
Today, he had to miss a fun day for the children at our church, but he was quite demanding on his poor mom. He was telling me where to put his food, where he wanted me to take him, etc.! He did a fabulous job shopping for school shoes and having an old umbrella stroller really helped out!
We are planning a Lake Michigan weekend that we just discussed yesterday and am so excited to go to. Even though it is just an overnight stay and 2 days at the beach, we are just thrilled to get out of town. I need to just get away before school starts!! Cinderella is so excited about the indoor pool and the beach.
