Cut is healing nicely, color has run through the rainbow and is starting to fade, breathing is much better, voice is no longer nasal. I feel so bad about her left nostril though. Someone assured me it will eventually return to its former shape - but I told E2 I'd get her plastic surgery as soon as she turns 16!
Poor E2 bumped her nose again during tubby time and boy did it swell up/turn purple! She won't leave the ice pack on so I rushed out and got her some Motrin. :(
I don't know if the photo does it justice, but it looks much worse than before her bath.
B & E2 were at the bookstore last night to get the latest installment in the 39 Clues series. Apparently B told E2 not to climb on a table, and apparently someone did not listen, and then took a nose dive off said table. E2 had a very restless night and is staying home today. Fortunately her nose doesn't hurt too much (drinking from her sippy cup was uncomfortable) and she let me clean her up a little. I am having trouble not laughing at her extremely nasal voice.
And here's the kidlets on November 3rd of last year:
After a big lecture yesterday about how people take a bath or shower everyday and how gross it is to be dirty (E2 has been crying about tubby time lately for some inexplicable reason), today I decided that another half-hour of sleep trumped cleanliness. Do I need to state the obvious: E2 chose today's apparel.
After noticing the neighbor boy headed off to daycare, bundled up in about 12 layers:
Well, I *meant* to take lots of fall photos this week. Unfortunately the drizzly dreary 40 degree weather put a damper on that. This is about it for the last few days:
When I pick E2 up from preschool, she likes to run to one end of the sidewalk and then down to the other end before getting in the car. I try to accomodate her when we have time!
E2, right before we went to pick up E1 from school. We got about a five minute reprieve from the rain/drizzle.
Around 11:00ish today, numerous attempts were made to keep E2 in the 'naughty chair'. After resetting the timer umpteen times, she was told she would have to lie down for a nap. I listened to screams of "I CAN'T SLEEP" for as long as I could, but finally it was tubby time. While she was supposed to be in bed what she was actually doing was CUTTING HER HAIR. AGAIN. "I didn't want my hair in my eyes!" "That's what hairclips are for!" GAH.
K, E2's future husband, is in her class again! :)
"I didn't know there was going to be a real Chucky there. He creeps me out!"
And OMG to the people that just stand there while their kids get in someone
else's photo! Grrrrrr!
E2 is having a great week at gymnastics camp! Snacks and crafts and new friends, oh my! Today was fiiiiiiiiiiiiinally 'water day' - she has been waiting for this day for what seems like months!
Now that E2's dance recital is over, I was able to take her to Cookie Cutters to get her "fixed" hair fixed:
E2 is VERY into painting this week:
She says this is called E2's Fish:
She says this is called E2's Seahorse:
She says this is called E2's DD (don't ask me):
She says this is called E2's Rolly:
And finally, she has titled this masterpiece, E2's Zoo:
It's time to earn Gymbucks *and* there is a 30% off sale, so I got some summer clothes for the Preschooler. I don't like it quite as much as the Summer Safari line, but the Jungle Gem line is cute and I like those colors on the Preschooler:
Job: "I didn't have any job!"

Toys: "Race cars. And I played with S_____!" (S is a new little friend of E2's.
She doesn't go to the preschool part; she is in the daycare part. So now E2
likes to stay there a little bit when she is done with preschool. Which is okey-
dokey with Mom!)
