Like Father, Like Son

* WARNING GRAPHIC PHOTOS BELOW *

We had quite the excitement last night but for once Jason was home when a child had to be taken to the hospital.

The boys were horsing around when all of a sudden a blood curdling scream came out of Wyatt who ran into the room holding the back of his head and crying - blood EVERYWHERE.

Turns out he somehow hit the back of his head on the side table in the living room.

We were able to get the bleeding to stop but it was a very deep wound and a big bump was forming, so off Jason and Wyatt went to the doctor. Why do these things always happen at night???

Turns out he needed three staples but everything else checked out fine.

So they bundled him up to keep him from moving.

He told Daddy that he felt like a burrito!

Once the initial shock of the accident wore off he was in high spirits - as you can tell from this photo - much like when he split his chin open...I'm sensing a pattern here.

He received three staples without any kind of numbing, as they said that would hurt more, and he didn't even cry!

This little one, I fear, will always be giving me a run for my money. I knew as a baby that he was the one I'd have to watch the most and that he was just like his father!

We have quite the collection of those teddy bears they give out at the hospital but the one that Wyatt brought home last night (shown in the first picture above) is my favorite with the scrubs and the mask! Wyatt was very excited to show it to me.

It was a late night so he got to fall asleep in the playroom. And there is nothing more comforting than the love of a puppy dog!

Let's hope the excitement is over for a very long time.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was

The Olympics

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've last posted a message. I guess it's been due to a combination of being really busy and not having much to say! Is that a contradiction? We've been letting Jack stay up late since Friday so that he could enjoy the Olympics. He really enjoyed the opening ceremony and has been in awe of the gymnastics. We went to a BBQ on Sunday night and just as we were getting ready to leave they put the ladies gymnastics on and all the kids say and watched. We had to drag Jack away. In other news, we're getting ready to do a really crazy thing. After only two months of having no debt and house payment, we're putting in an offer on a new home! We really had no plans to do this, but when we went to visit our friends on Sunday, we decided to drive around and look at the houses there. We had looked in there back before Ethan was born and fell in love with the place so we thought we'd just take a look and see how much i

Last Day in Prague

Our last full day in Prague. We had a late night parting the night before and a very early morning excursion but this was the one I was excited for! We did a similar excursion in Italy and loved it too. This was an awesome city bike tour to the Vysehrad Castle. We stopped for photo ops along the way - including here along the Charles River. But it's all fun and games until someone gets stopped by the Polizia! Before we left on our trip I was told to make sure you stay away from the police, so I was surprised to come up the big steep hill to see Jason stopped by one. I guess our tour guides didn't get the permit to ride in the park (too close to kids and a school). We had all just come up a big steep hill and were separated from the front of our group. Jason stopped to wait for me and the rest of the group to make sure we knew where to go. We had three guides, on leading, one in the middle who pulled away from Jason, and then one at the back.
