2009 into 2010!!!




Hello to all my faithful followers!! It's been a while since I last blogged, so in case I haven't seen or talked to you...I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and a fabulous New Year!!!

We really enjoyed our holidays, we were able to stay home and spend time with each other and with some of our very dear friends. It was nice to not have to be out and on the roads this year. Not that I have a problem traveling...I LOVE TO TRAVEL, but a chance to just be at home was very, very nice!

We celebrated our holidays by playing games, playing games on the Wii (which we got for Christmas this year), and just relaxing! Well, that was Christmas anyway...for the New Year's Eve celebration....well, things turned a bit awry for about 2 hours. Let me explain......

We had some of our dearest friends come over to celebrate and they have a daughter who is Haley's age. So the girls are all playing in the bedroom together, the parents are all playing games on the Wii, next thing you know we hear a very, very loud and heart-renching scream.....parents out there...you know that scream, the one that tells you, you better run into the room to see what just happened. Well, I was closest to the room and took off, I entered to find Emily (who is 2) sitting on the bed bleeding on her head. I scooped her up, ran her into the kitchen (Travis was there to help)and we get her cleaned off and see she has cut open her head at her right eyelid. So, we get her all cleaned off, get ourselves all ready and head out to the ER. Thankfully enough it was still early in the night and we were seen pretty quickly. About an hour and a half later we were headed back home with one tough little girl and 3 stitches in the eye. Emily did really well considering the situation and only cried when she first hit her eye (for about 5 min) and when they papoosed her to put in the stitches...that was it, no other crying or complaining at all. She's one tough little girl!! We came home, she ran and played with the other two girls, like nothing had ever happened and we rang in the new year!!

2009 went out with a BANG in our household, but she will have the stitches out in a couple days and all will be well!!

I pray you have a blessed 2010!!!

Here's some photos of Emily:

The cut on her head...small but just big enough to need 3 stitches...and one puffy eye to go with it!

So, what happened? Did she fall or get hit?

she fell. She was sitting in her sister's bed when I got in the room, so I think she was climbing out of the bed or jumping from Haley's bed to her bed.

Crazy girl!!

She's healing well and the stitches come out tomorrow!! YEAH!! :)
