Kaia's First BooBoo

Well the weekend was great but the drive home was the big fat suck! We wasted all of our "quiet" asleep in the car time shopping (Ann Taylor at the outlet mall? There is a god of shopping) so on the road she was pretty dang cranky. I pulled out her little lappy to occupy her and it worked great...until she hit herself in the lip with it. :( I looked down and thought she had closed her fingers in it because she started screaming, then saw blood on her hands and realized she had bloodied her little lip. :( It wasn't too bad, and like a real trooper she just screamed a bit then was ok.

Kudos to my husband, who drove the whole way from Mark & Candice's to the outlet mall in Allen, where he sat in the car while Kaia slept (ac on full blast) while Mommy broke the bank shopping. Then drove from Allen to my Mom's, from my Mom's to Sapulpa to pick up the pooch, then Sapulpa home. So he could write his column.

It was a long day. I think we have a New Rule. Traveling with a toddler means taking an extra day off post-travel.

Thanks M&C for being such great hosts, as always!

Poor little girl. Andrew loves to say oweeeee and point to his booboo. You should teach her.

Poor baby, a busted lip is no fun.

We were very happy to see you guys. It might sound lame but it is super exciting to us to have you guys visit and bring Kaia. It gives us a chance to show her off and share are world here with her. We consider time with her here the best birthday gift ever.

Maybe next time we should hit the outlet mall early and let her stay and play with the guys?

I'm sure this weekend messed up her schedule and that didn't help things. I also heard grandpa was being a drunken ass. Sorry.
