Saturday's culminating activity to wrap up a hectic day of mowing, bike-rides and grocery shopping was a doozy. Let's just say we now know why one of our children has the letters E.R. in her name. She has officially made the most trips there of anyone in our family. Her tally is at 4. 2 lacerations, a collision with an aluminum bat and a dislocated elbow.
Below is a picture of the latest trip. She tripped and hit the corner of the fridge...YEOWWCH!
The same Dr. was there that recently glued her laceration near her right eye, so he came in, called her by first name, and proceeded to glue it shut. We then made our way over to the DQ for a strawberry shortcake blizzard. That seemed to smooth things over pretty well. many thanks to bopie and bompa, who left the movie theater, met us at the ER and took the boys too a concert! She then came home, bathed everyone for church and got them too bed! HUGE BLESSING!
Sunday was a MUCH better day, way less eventful. Church was great, girls got some shopping in afterwards, while boys went and hunted down some MEAT for lunch (BK Buck Doubles...YUM). Headed home for naps, while mommy and daddy had a lunch date at applebee's (our fave). Kaylee had a concert tonight at Eppley for Philharmonia... it was VERY good, they got a semi-standing ovation. (pictures to come). Headed home for some ice cream cones and put kids to bed.
Short week this week because we are excited to go to Minneapolis for adoption conference!
MUCH thanks going to meemaw and bumpaKK for covering Thurs and Fri at our house this week!

What a busy week! I'm glad we've only had to make 1 ER trip so far!
I just wanted to comment and say that my sister & her husband are going to be at the adoption conf too! (Funny that both Lea's and my sister will be there.). They have 6 children, almost like you! You can see their blog here. http://loudsongsofjoy.blogspot.com/
Have fun at the conference!

Yikes! I've been to the E.R. twice (I think), the first time was because I sliced my head too! and had to get a butterfly bandage (at least that's what they called it)...but I called it purple glue. the same thing Erin got! (if that makes her feel any better :-D)
Hope she gets better!
p.s. Kaylee did an AWESOME job at the concert!!! BFF

Awesome blog material. I failed to take pictures of Heather's lacerations in the ER. I could see the look in her eye laying in the ER..."all you're thinking about is blogging right now - you're not taking any pics of my wounds!"
Hope you're feeling better Erin! You're the toughest girl I know!
Can't wait for the conference!!!!!!!!!!!!
