My Poor Baby!!

So yesterday I was getting all the kids ready for bed. Logen for some odd reason, dosen't like to take baths. He is scared of the water, he hates to be wet. So to give him a bath there had to be less then 5 inches of water. I can't put any water on his head, I have to use a washcloth. I had just got him all clean and went maybe 5 feet away to grab the towel, when he tried to get out himself. Our new tub is deeper then most so its kinda hard for the kids to get out on there own. Logen lifted up one leg and put it over the side of the tub, right as the other foot; still in the water; slipped. I grabbed his arm but his chin still hit the tub. I didn't notice anything til I was drying him off and saw the blood. He had split his chin open!! So I layed him down to see how bad it was. It was BAD! So I called Britteny and she watched my kids for me (thanks brit!) while I took Logen to the ER. He had too get 7 stiches in his chin. He did such a good job, I was scared becase they could give him anything to numb it. So me and the nurse held him and sang the ABC's while he was getting the stiches. I dont have any pics yet cause the put bandaids on it. As soon as I get some I'll post them. My poor boys, both taken to the ER in a metter of two weeks!!

A Little Fun, A Little Drama

So lets start with some drama. It all started on Thursday with little Jesse running in the house yelling at the top of his lungs, " A SNAKE, A SNAKE ". So me and Big Jesse go out side to see if anything is out there. Nothing we looked everywhere. So we let all the kids go outside to play, then all four screaming at the top of there lungs " A SNAKE, A SNAKE " So I go running outside, and imagine that, a snake!! Black and White and really long. Jesse picked it up with a shovel and put it in a can.

Then we brought Little Jesse outside so he could see the snake that he found. He loved it, soo cool is all he could say!!( did you notice the big hairy spider too )

Now for some FUN. We had a little get together with Jesse's friends from work and had so much fun. Its been a while sence I have had some good old fashion fun. The best part was so did Jesse!! I haven't seen him laugh that much in a long time.

Now for the worst part. We decided to go to Andys house for some more fun on Sunday. All the adults were inside making some food when it all started. Eridanus came running inside screaming and crying. He had been attacked by bees. Next came Jesse and another little girl. All had been stung somewhere, some more then once. We took one look at Jesse and could tell he had been stung right on his lip. So we packed up the kids and Jesse drove to the hospital. When we got there they rushed us to the back because he was having trouble breathing. His oxogen level was below 50% and the whole left side of his face was swollen.

This picture was after all the shots and Benadryl-Epinephrine-and Prednisolone. It brought the swelling down a bit and then preceded to knock his ass out.

He slept for about 4 hours and then they finally let us go home after hours of observation. He is back to his normal self today, bouncing off the walls and driving everyone crazy.
