It seems like everyday brings a new "never will I forget" moment. At least it seems like I'll never forget but in the midst of all the chaos here I may just do that...forget! And only remember the really crazy moments although there seem to be many too many of those. This week there are quite a few. To start, this morning Ally showed up with a split lip. We don't really know exactly how it happened but it involved Nate, Ally, a toy and some sharing issues. Nate ended up with the toy and Ally well... a split, bleeding lip.
On to the more life threatening news... yesterday Katelynn was playing with the blind cords (the blinds were pulled up all the way.. we were cleaning the windows). I took the cords away but didn't put the blinds back down, stepped out of the room for a moment and heard Kate scream a loud help me scream I ran in and didn't see anything but her crying. I couldn't figure out what had happened. She was really upset but okay after a few minutes. Well... several hours later at the pool a friend of mine asked, "What happened to her neck?" And at that moment I saw she had semi-deep rope burn halfway around her neck and realized why Kate had been crying earlier. The blinds rope must have got caught around her neck. Thank God she is okay and I've been putting neosporen on it to help it heal. The guilt really set in heavily on me after realizing what had happened.
The other crazy moment that really sticks out clearly in my mind is when I was playing on the floor with the girls and Nate earlier this week. I was laying on my back on the floor with Ally on my stomach. Kate started to climb a chair and fell backwards, I quickly reached over to catch her and in the same moment elbowed Ally in the nose. She starts crying, her nose starts bleeding, I start crying and my heart just feels horrible for hurting my baby girl. I seriously thought I had broke her nose. She was okay and didn't end up with any bruises, thank You God!
Earlier this week I had a complete gross out moment. Surprisingly, it didn't involve any stinky diapers, those are continual and daily gross out moments. This was a complete and utterly disgusting gross out moment. I found a tick, yes a tick on Katelynn's arm. I would expect and understand on the dog or maybe Joe since they hang around outside more. But on my BABY GIRL! No! It was horribly disgusting and I cried on the inside for allowing that to happen.
That is all I can think of minus all the boogery noses, stinky diapers and dirt I clean up on an hourly bases.
