Valentine's Day and The ER

What a Valentine's Day yesterday! It had both good and bad things happen...

When I woke up Zach made breakfast (heart shaped pancakes) and he even cleaned up after himself. In fact, he cleaned the entire upstairs minus our bedroom and even started laundry and got it sorted for me! What a man! He even let me shower by myself, by that I mean he took care of Brooklyn and kept her distracted so I could shower! He truly treated me like a princess, I love him TONS! (Oh and did I mention that he had flowers delivered to me at work on Friday? He is so sweet!) He also took me shopping on Saturday and got me some more maternity clothes, I don't know what I wore when I was prego with Brooklyn but I have been struggling to want to leave the house because my wardrobe is so limited. Oh and he bought me new shoes! We had an awesome Valentine weekend :O)

Valentine's Day ended kind of bad though :( We were sitting at my mom's house and she was just about to make us some yummy scones and boom... Brooklyn fell off the bar stool! She hit directly on her little chin and her tooth went in her lip. It was bleeding so badly in and out I thought for sure that her tooth had gone all the way through so I flipped and we ran to the ER. Good thing I have buddies there that could calm me down and look her over. It ended up that she didn't need stitches and that her had not gone through, but she did scratch the outside of her chin and it was bleeding. Jeff (the PA that was there) is one of my favorites and assured us that she was going to be ok. He told us to wake her once in the night to make sure she didn't have a serious concussion and make sure she was eating well (in case she hurt her jaw). He look at her pupils, checked her teeth to make sure they were all intact and not loose. The nurses were good too (thanks Jill and Lisa!) they cleaned her up and Kalli (clerk) got her a stuffed animal to love on to help calm her down. I felt bad because she kept saying "I just need to go home." All in all it was a good/mild first ER experience and I am glad things turned out ok. Now we just have to wait for her poor little fat lip to go down and her chin not to be bruised.

I will hopefully get some pictures on here tomorrow or Wednesday...

Happy Early Valentine's...

So usually when I am at work Zach will bring Brooklyn in so that I can fix her hair before she goes to grandma's. Today he brought her in just to say hi because he already had fixed her hair (way to go!). I thought something fishy was going on because Brooklyn asked me,
"Mommy, do you like flowers?"
Me: What?
Mommy: you like flowers (as she is shaking her head up and down)
Me: Huh?
Zach: She is asking you if you like sour candy, we bought some this morning.
Me: Oh, why didn't she say candy?
Zach: I dunno

So then a few hours later....

The local flower shows up with a few roses and a teddy bear for me! I was thrilled!

Lol, later I told Zach thanks for the flowers, and I like flowers more than sour candy! I guess Brooklyn isn't the greatest at keeping secrets :o)

Valentine's Day 2009

So Valentine's Day this year was kinda crappy. Zach had to work all day and so I was upset about that. Brooklyn and I had an alright day though. We made sugar cookies, did laundry, and visited Grandma and Grandpa, Jamie, Jade, and Rachel and her family. It was weird to not go on a date or at least snuggle with Zach. When he did get home from work we tried to watch a movie but we were both so exhausted we just headed to bed. It's funny how when you get older all you want to do is go to bed rather than when you are young you beg to stay up all night. Hopefully next year we will get to go on a date or something...


P.S. I tried to take some good pictures with Boky but she wasn't having it! (The first one she looks like a zombie!)
