We're Back...

We are back from Sky Ranch. We had a wonderful time, walking, walking, walking some more! I think on Thursday I logged 8.5 miles on my pedometer. Seriously! Here is one picture that sums up the week..


Rocky and I both did the Zip Line.





Emily and Rocky rode a bull.





I rode a horse



We had a really good time, but we were ready to come home and see our other 6 babies.

This is the finger that mommy squished

Updated to add this photo after we took off the gauze for bathtime.This morning during the mass exodus of the car...aka...mommy taking the little 4 to daycare...Abby's finger got shut in the door. It was just the tip, so I thought no biggie. Well, it bled and bled. I stopped the bleeding and put on a bandaid and headed out for work. I checked in later in the day and they said they were having a hard time keeping a bandaid on it at daycare. I called the doctors office and the nurse told me that if the edges were jagged it would be best to go ahead and take her in. So, off of work I took, picked up grampa and headed for daycare. I picked up Abby and went back in to work to the ER. We were in and out in 1 1/2 hours - pretty good, I think. Xrays were fine, 4 stitches later...Ouch. Needless to say, she was not pleased with the care she received, but I was. 10 to 12 days later and the stitches come out. Just when we are back from Sky Ranch. The EMT wrapped it up for us so she couldn't get to it, but I don't think that will last long...

Our Busy Morning

Well, this morning we got up and went to find some Bluebonnets. My mom had actually scouted the spot last week, and I went by last night to make sure that it was still there. Mom went with us to help take pictures and contain kids. Overall, it wasn't that bad of a beating (Rocky says otherwise).

Love at first bite

This happened the other day, and I am just now getting around to posting it. If you look really closely and look for the after-effects, you can see Isabelle biting Abigail.
