Around here...

I guess it's time for a little update here! So much has been going on this summer with travel, kids, figuring out what to do for school next year, sickness, injuries, etc., etc I'm tired just thinking about it!

Ava has fallen four times on the same place. Right in the middle of her forehead! The other day her head was so swollen, that Aaron kept calling her "Vulcan Baby." It hasn't slowed her down a bit though! She's acting fine, which is the only reason I haven't rushed her to the Dr. But she really looks pitiful! The swelling is moving down, and has turned into two black eyes! So, I kept her at home this Sunday, to prevent any more injuries (and strange looks!), until we can get this one healed!



This is the swollen forehead!


Here's the black eyes the next day.

We've decided to home school Aaron Job and Abby next year, so I'm still trying to decide on a few more things that I want to do with Aaron Job. So, with that, and nursing an infected wisdom tooth, that will be coming out soon, I've been a little out of it lately!


And here's one more pic for fun. Abby trying to jump rope.

Poor little Ava!

I'm sorry you have an infected wisdom tooth. Do you have someone to help with the kids the day you're having it taken out? If not, please let me know and I'll be happy to have them here. Aaron Job might be bored out of his mind but you know the girls would have a blast. ;)

Hey, did you know I'm working with you in VBS?

So sad for little AVA. She does look pititful.
I can also watch your kids the day you have your wisdom tooth out. Let me know when it is.

Glad to hear you made your decision about school. That has to be a load off. huh?

Oh, poor baby! I can't say I didn't get a good laugh out of those pictures though. She's so cute, even with the black-eye and goose egg on the forehead! :-D
