Right to Read Week

The girls had right to read week last week and on Friday they had to dress up like pirates. This is them one is happy and one is mad. What an attitude. Where does she get that from. RUDI????

Sam'e First Haircut

He is 25 months old and finally getting his haircut. He was so good. I don't cut too many kids that sit this good for their first haircut. Maybe he has seen me cut enough people he knows how to act or he is just good like that. Now he looks like he has more hair. Even though he has less.

I'm not the perfect Mom I thought I was.

Look at the goose egg that he has. We were getting ready to go to a well check. I set him on the counter to put his coat on and fill up a bowl of goldfish crackers. I spilled them and went to get the broom and he fell off the counter. It sounded horrible. He cried alot. We went to the well check and there was nothing. That night was bad he was up alot. The next morning we got up early and I was sitting with him and I felt his head and it was squishy. So I took him to the ER. They did a cat scan and it showed nothing. Then a week later it started to swell like it looks here and we called the Dr. two times on Wednesday and the second time the Dr told us to go back to the ER. So again the same thing cat scan and sent home. We went home feeling stupid for taking him back and questioning our Dr. But the next day I was in the Dr. office for Rudi and when we were done the Dr. got a phone call and we started to walk out of the room and he told us to go back in and then came back in and told us another radiologist read the xray and found a skull fracture. So Sam already sees a neurologist so we got into see him the next day and now we just have to watch it to make sure it dosen't get bigger. And go back in 2 weeks. They did a 3D picture of his skull and now I have seen it all. The crack is long a fine but it looks bad. The Dr. just wants to make sure nothing comes thru the crack. I feel so bad. Just what he needs. More appointments and to be hurt. I know accidents happen but I'm the Mom. He needs to be safe with me. Because he has Morgan as a sister.

Rudi Hit a Sheriff...WOW!!!!!

Well it sounds worst than what really happened. A 32 year Lucas Co. veteran was who was in the accident with Rudi. It happened right outside of Swanton. Hears how the story goes:

Rudi noticed that her light was red so she started to slow down and as she got closer her light turned green so she sped up. As she got even closer she noticed that there was a sheriff sitting at the light in the other direction looking like he was going to turn towards Toledo so she slowed down a little bit. She thought his lights were on but the sun was shinning and it was only his red ones so she started thru the light. THEN the sheriff pulled out in front of her and she hit the back end of his cruiser. The person beside her had stopped and the cars across from her had stopped too. So we thought she was going to be in BIG trouble. But as we heard more witness they all said the sheriff didn't have his seiren on and my brother Nick who is a deputy sheriff in another county said that for anyone to go thru a red light they have to make sure that everyone is stopped and he didn't do that. So she is not getting a ticket. Lucky her!!! And it might be his fault just as much as hers. So we will each be responsible for our own cars. I sure hope so and I hope she has learned to stop no matter what kind of lights she sees.

Rudi setting her blanket on FIRE!!!!!!

I made her this blanket for Christmas about 3 years ago and it was looking nasty I wanted to set it on fire. But she beat me to it. She walked into the kitchen and threw it onto the counter and I had that candle burning and it caught on fire. Ha its history. But she really loves her mini blankets and so I made her a new one that is giraffe print and hot pink silk edges. She loves it just as much as the old one. This new one will end up looking nasty before too long.

This is her mad when I wanted to take her picture after it happened. She will be mad when she sees that I've blogged this. OH WELL!!!!!

Morgan's 7th Birthday

This is hard to see but Morgan is hitting her pinata. Its Hannah Montana's guitar. It didn't hold that much candy so I thru lots more on the floor when it broke open. I think pinata's are so dumb but kids love them so much. Morgan had a great birthday. She asked for money and got $92.00 and she went out and bought a DS. We helped her come up with the rest. Now her and Robyn can share the games.

Robyn and Molly painting their nails & putting decals on them too.

Morgan painting her toes and her friend Kali from school.

Sam getting another EEG

Sam's first EEG was so easy he was much younger and fell asleep and was pretty happy. As he gets older it gets harder to sit there for 30 mins. Scott had to work so we called Aunt Jenny Allen to go with us to this appointment. She was great taking all the pictures and helping him keep quiet. He did finally fall asleep.

Sam at Physical Therapy

This is Rehab Dynamics in Toledo. Sam goes here on Wednesdays. It is an awesome place to play as a kid. There is a few other boys that are there when he is there and they walk and get to do all the fun looking stuff. Those fabric things hanging are spandex and the kids crawl in them.

Sam loves watching the other boys in class. This week he got to stand with his splints on and play Candy Land Castle with Gabe. He loved it. While he stands his therapist Ann shifts his weight from one leg to the other. He normally hates it but playing a game he doesn't even know she is doing it.

This looks like a regular swing. It is but the thing it does is strengthens his back and makes him catch himself from falling over. He uses muscles doing this that he don't at home. He loves this swing.
