I don't know how? But grandpa always seems to fall asleep holding the kids!
Grandma and Seth!
Wresting with grandpa in the floor. Someone usually ends coming away crying!
Ella got her picture taken so Drew had to also.This is his mug shot!
Ella is modeling the jacket that she and grandma made together (it even has a pocket)!!Oh man have I been a bad blogger! Life has been in full throttle lately. So what has been happening with us?
Real estate is great right now! But of course in sales it seem to always be feast and famine, after 5 years of it you would think it would get easier when it's the famine part. Ella got to spend the week with her grandparents in Illinois and had a blast. She got to go to an antique mall, bible study, have a tea party and she and grandma made a jacket for her! We picked her up and spent Easter weekend there.
Here's a good one- Easter evening Jeremy and I went to get gas, he reached into the van to pop the gas tank and the wind blew the door shut on his head and busted is eye open. Couple hours later after the massive bleeding stopped we left the ER with 9 stiches! A week later I got to play nurse and take out the stitches. I must say he held up better than I thought he was, he didn't wine at all.
Here's another good one-This week we were in the garage getting ready for our huge yard sale this next weekend. I just stepped inside to wash my hands and Jermey was sweeping the garage when I heard Seth screaming. I opened the door there was blood everywhere and poor little Seth was screaming like I've never heard him before. Drew had gotten a pair of utility scissors off the dryer and tried to cut Seth's big toe off. He actually cut a giant chunk out of the padding of his big toe. It was gushing blood and I had to calll the doctor and ER. They said if it didn't stop bleeding to bring him in and they would stitch it up. I had to explain there was nothing to stitch up!! He had cut a chunk out and it was gone. It was bad, we finally got ourselves pulled together enough to compress it long enough that bleeding came to a minimum then get it gauzed up and taped up. 3 days later it is just healing up great, no big deal at all. Isn't great out God made kids heal so fast!! He knew they would have a big brother like Drew that liked to cut things. And little Drew he had no idea what was going on, he was just standing there looking around like, ''what's the big deal?"
I guess that is a good note to end on. I'll try to post more often!!
Oh, I just forgot really cool news, our good friends Chantelle and Eric are going to get their baby girl from Ethiopia next Saturday!! I just can't wait to meet her, please pray for safe travel and a good bonding experience with her when they get to the orphanage..Welcome home Solie!
