WARNING!!!!

Some of These pictures look like something out of a horror movie & it still gets my stomach when I look a them.  Yesterday 3/9/12 Katie was trying to take the plastic connector off of a glow in the dark bracelet.  Well apparently she was pulling pretty hard & her hand slipped causing the plastic bracelet to go straight into her eye.  She screamed!!  I tried my best not to panic especially when I saw a pink tear.  I still hadn't seen the damage to her eye because as you could imagine she was keeping it closed pretty tight.  I had to make sure she could still see first & she could, THANK GOD!  The outside corner of her eye was very red, as you can see in the pictures.  After looking at it several times I realized she had cut the "conjunctiva" the thin membrane that covers the white part of the eye.  (No I am not a Dr. I Googled it) The white part between the two read spots is where it cut her eye. I really started to panic but kept it together when I was in front of her, keep in mind this is the first time I have had a "hurt" kid! We rushed to the Eye Foundation ER where we waited 2 1/2 hours to see the Dr.  Luckily there is no permanent damage to Katie's eye & it will heal quickly with drops.  I know this is one of many "accidents" we will have a parents & I am not looking forward to them AT ALL!  I am just thankful she is ok!  She handled it like a very BIG girl too :).

Library & the Park

 
 

This is our second week to go to the Hoover Library for story time.  Katie loves it & Will not so much.  After story time we headed to the park with the Turner family & had a picnic lunch.  I can see many more of these days in our near future.

4 yr & 18 mo. Checkups

 
 

Both kids had checkups on Monday, they did great considering they both had to have their throats swabbed (No strep this time).

Katie is 45 1/2" tall & 45lb.  she is off the charts for height & weight.  She had to have her vision & hearing test & did great with both considering she HATES getting her ears checked!  The finger prick was another story ;)

Will is 34" tall & weighs 25lb. he 90th percentile for height & 20th for weight.  Tall & skinny!!

This was Will stealing Katie's seat during her dance class last week.  He even stole her drink!  Afterwards we made a trip to Chick-fil-A with our friends & had ice cream.  They are so good at sharing (yeah right)!
