Crying Over spilled milk Broken Glass

My mom's birthday is Monday the 10th, and in celebration, my sister and I decided to take her on a little "vacation"! Since we live in different towns, and our husbands have very different schedules, we decided to take the kiddos with us, and enjoy as much of a "vacation" with the "girls" as we could!


We loaded the kids and headed out with half of the house packed...at least half of my house!!! Oregon coast...here we come! Mima (grandma), Danielle, myself, and our kiddos...Kallen 2, Josiah 1, Kynlee 7 months and Benson 4 months...makes for 1 heck of a party wouldn't you say!!!


Anyways...There was lots of laughter, lounging, and laziness...and aside from a few fits here or there, no major catastrophes!

Oh...until this happened!


Kallen's head...meet fireplace! 5 minutes before we were walking out the door to head home, I heard a crash from the other room followed by a soft and subtle "Uh oh mommy". I came running in, to find Kallen lying in the middle of the pile of glass. Apparently he tripped and fell into the fireplace...head first! I guess he hasn't been walking long or something, ha ha ha! He wasn't hurt, only a little startled and scared that he was in trouble, and the maintenance man said "these things happen", so we didn't have any huge glass bill to pay or anything, so that was good.
So here are some pictures from our time away. Trying to get 4 kids under the age of 2 1/2 to sit still and look at the camera all at the same time was nearly impossible, and attempting to get Mima into the picture as well proved to be just as disastrous!!!




Blessings,

Too fun (sans the fireplace incident of course!). Happy birthday to Barb! Nate would be sooo proud of Josiah for the book he's reading. What a little man's man!

Oh man, I am so happy to hear he didn't injur himself. That looked as though it couldve been really bad. Poor guy. Poor mama, you were probably scared to death!

That lil Kynlee sure is a sweetie pie!
