Meet Chip...

It was one of those days...where you wanted to go back to bed and start all over again! Greg's been gone so I've been on single mom overload (excuses, excuses) and I've been feeling a little frazzled, tired and off my game. Then Monday happened.

I had been struggling with another rib out of place, so I was in A LOT of pain. I took Brayden and Kyla with me to go grocery shopping and as I was getting him out of the cart in the middle of Aldi's I lost my grasp on him and he fell smack down on the floor. Chipping his front tooth (I'm sure you can see the drama that unfolded from there). That is where his new nickname came in..."Chip". He reminds me of the little teacup in the movie "Beauty and the Beast". Ha! Poor kid. (He later in the day fell and cut his lip on that jagged snagel tooth...so we went to the dentist to get it filed down...to find that he has a cavity because that tooth was already cracked and it was a gathering place for all the sugar bugs). Sigh! Then two hours later I was getting ready to nurse Miss Kyla and I went to take my sweatshirt off (that sounds weird, but I don't know how else to say it...I did have a shirt underneath)...and during the time my hands were tied she decided to roll off the couch and smack head down on the floor. 2 for 2, mom, way to go!

Yep, that is my summer plant that is still outside. Judge away:)
The icing on the cake was the next day when sweet Jett wanted to go outside and help me shovel snow because I couldn't with my back pain. He comes in shortly screaming. I look at his head and there was a HUGE golf ball size knot on his forehead. I guess he stepped on the shovel and the handle came up and smacked him on the head. Awesome. 3 for 3!
So if you are looking for a nice head injury...come on over...I'm sure I can work something out for you! It seems to be my specialty these days:)

Yikes! I would be watchful of your own head!
