A Nail File Would Have Been a Worthy Investment

Right when we start feeling all sunshiney about peanut baby's progress she goes totally a-wall on us.




Look at those eyes and the redness therein.  And that was before the spinal tap.  SPINAL.  TAP.  There was also a cat scan, a catheter, an IV, an EKG, leg x-rays, and blood tests.  10 hours at Primary Children's Hospital, and you wanna know what they found?  Get ready, because I'm not sure you're gonna be able to handle the horror of what I'm about to tell you.  They found...a scratch on her cornea.  I wish I were kidding.  I'm going to be paying off medical bills for the rest of my life because peanut baby went all Freddy Krueger on herself with her hangnail.  The only redeeming aspect of the day was that every time the doctor came in to examine her he'd go (in the most ridiculous voice imaginable), "who's a wittoe baby bug" like 17 times fast.  The "baby bug" wasn't amused.  


And to balance out my belly aching I am now going to R.A.V.E about peanut baby's blessing day.  Actually mostly just about  her dress

the cake pops


The day was great.  The dress was my favorite part.  The cake pops were a close second.  That is all.

*My 9 year old son just walked into my room and said, "hey mom, I got laid".  It was either Trojan or Hawaiian day at school today.

  1. A scratch? Really? That sucks for sure, but what doesn't suck is little Tessa in her blessing dress. Cutest little munchkin ever! AND a great family photo...even with a dyson growing out of your head.

  2. First, I'm glad it was only a scratch on the cornea. So sorry about the medical bills. So sucky!
    Second, you don't have anything that at all resembles chipmunk cheeks.
    Third, I love the blessing dress!
