Emergencies

E- It has been a month of emergencies around here.  
Well, not really a month full, but we have had our fair share.  

It all started in the shower.  You know how I love to dance?  Well, I am not sure if you have seen my Momma and Daddy's super amazing shower, but seriously, it is fantastic.  It is giant, thus there is plenty of room to dance, right?  Except pretty much EVERYONE had been telling me not to dance in the shower.  Well, I did it anyway and FELL and bashed my chin on the tile floor!  OUCH!  It bled and bled and was VERY scary.  Momma took me to the emergency room so a doctor could see what I did.  I was very scared to go to the hospital, but it turned out that it was not bad at all!  I got to watch a movie!  The doctors were very nice and I didn't need any shots.  I ended up with 6 stitches in my chin!  And while they put in the stitches I got to play on an ipad!  Then they gave me a DOUBLE GRAPE POPSICLE because I had been so brave.  AND I got a cool Mickey Mouse thing to color!  Totally a win, win, I'd say.  I left with a bright pink bandaid on my chin.  How did they know pink is my favorite?  Those people are brilliant, I say.  I got home from the hospital very late at night.  I told Momma, "I learned a hard lesson today."  Momma agreed.

Then, as if that wasn't enough, FOUR DAYS LATER Momma took Reid to the emergency room, too!

Yes.  It really happened.  When my baby brother gets croup, he has real trouble breathing.  The first time this happened, he became very pale and limp and Momma was VERY scared.  This time, he was gasping for air and Momma knew to get to the ER right away.  They gave Reid a breathing treatment and a steroid and then he was much better.  Some babies have a harder time with croup than others, I guess.  Poor baby.  I don't like for my baby brother to be sick.

We are all better now.  My stitches are all gone and Reid is back to his happy, healthy self. 

Thank goodness!

10 Months Old!

R - It is hard to believe it, I know.  Yes indeed, I am already 10 months old!  We finally had a pretty day, so Momma and I went out outside to play!  It is fun to play in the sunshine!

I brought my stacking cups and bumpy ball outside to play with today.  Though the cups ARE nice to stack, I prefer to bang them together.  They make a nice sound!

It is also fun to play with the blanket.  Peek-a-boo is one of my favorite games. I even play it in the grocery store, which makes the old ladies so happy!  Old ladies love me!
What's not to love?

I was trying to be sneaky and grab some grass to chew on, but Momma didn't find that to be a good plan.  Oh well, there are so many things to see and do outside!  Three cheers for good weather!
