Yesterday we started the day off quite sluggish. We had family night at DiDi's on Monday night, and after our busy weekend we decided to just take it easy. After nap time we decided it would be fun to bake Daddy a cake for working so hard during the day. We had fun mixin
g the cake, some in Emma's mouth, some on the counter, some on the floor, and the majority in the bowl. Madeline, all the while, was supervising to make sure we did it correctly.(F.Y.I. if you are missing 1/4 a stick of butter the cake still tastes great and Emma poking/digging into the cake actually provided decoration.) Once we put the cake in the pan, I continued one of our traditions with Emma......licking the spoons. Yumm Yumm!!!! We put the cakes in the oven for baking. After baking and cooling, we iced the cake with chocolate icing ummmm!

tag-teamed supper. The deer sausage was wonderful. We each had a piece of cake, except Madeline, it wasn't on her menu. At this time we started winding down for bedtime. I gave Emma her bath, got both the girls in their pjs, gave them their vities(vitamins), and went to brush their teeth. This is where all the drama began last night. I was nursing Madeline and asked Eric if he could brush Emma's teeth. It takes an act of congress to check Emma's teef and brush the spots she has missed. Eric had her sitting on his lap on the couch. Our couch is beautiful, but it is older and the corners have beautiful wood details. Well Eric was checking her teef and she went into her normal "convulsions"(ie kicking, screaming, head bunting, flailing arms etc.). She threw her head forward and it made contact with the wood details on our couch. She was okay, I think we were the ones who were falling apart. We went to Maw-maw's to see if it warranted stitches. We took her to Medexcel, an after-hours clinic. We got there minutes before closing, but they chose to see her anyway. We were so thankful to see Dr. Hindelang, and he put Dermabond (ie medical superglue) and quickly sutured her up. She cried a little, but was a real champ! Or maybe it was the trip to Sonic for ice cream that made it all better. We went home, held her for a little while, and off to bed she went. She slept fine and everything has been fine since.
