Big Bad Fall

Christian and I were taking a walk around the block when he got tired. I offered him a piggyback ride, but with new tennis shoes, it did not go well. We made it half a block when my ankle rolled and down we went. I managed to swing over to the grass, but I fell on top of Christian and he scraped his elbow. He was mad at me! He was also worried about his elbow until he realized it was hardly scratched. We limped home and he was fine within an hour. I lost the top of my knee and have a bump on my hand, but oh well. Guess I shouldn't be carrying a 50 pounder around with new shoes on!

Easter Tantrums

Easter was jam-packed with activity, resulting in…you guessed it, crabby kids. Christian threw a fit about tie-dying eggs. He didn't like getting paint on his fingers. Tori took over, while Christian stomped upstairs. Tori threw her own fits throughout the weekend, mostly because she was so tired. Eli also has his share of fits, mostly about things he can't have!

It was a good weekend in spite of all of the meltdowns. The kids loved playing outside and couldn't believe the Easter bunny brought them everything they wanted!
