We have been busy...

Ok...where do I start?!? 5 weeks ago, we had our first major incident with Madison. We were having a snack at the kitchen table and then all of the sudden the chair was slipping out of underneath her. I caught her, but not quick enough. Before I was able to get her, she hit her chin on the table. On our table, there is a tiny raised lip before the edge. This is what she hit! I did not see much blood, until I was checking her out to make sure that she was ok. Thankfully, it did not bleed too much! She did great! She just kept saying "Momma, just put a bandaid on it". Needless to say, we went to the urgent care immediately once Rob got home from the gym, I had to call him to come home becuase I did not want to take both kids there with me by myself (knowing there would be stitches involved!)  Rob stayed home with Ashley while I took Madison to the urgent care!
The picture below is of Madison with the numbing agent they put on that numbed the entire chin; it was a gel that they mixed up, put on, and covered with a bandaid. We had to sit for 30 minutes for it to do its job!
waiting to see the dr and get her stitches!
Once we finally got back to see ther dr, she took one look at it and said it was pretty bad! It took an hour to get all 7 stitches out in! Below is the final product!


that night we had family movie night with Nainai!

Before our trip to urgent care, we went to Bed Bath and Beyond to get some things for the house...when Madison saw these chairs, she screamed so loud and was so excited! These are her favorite chairs! She asked if she could get one, and then proceeded to make sure that Ashley got one too! After naptime, Madison wanted to sit in their chairs; as you can see Ashley is not quite there at sitting up by herself in this picture...but Madison was happy!!
