1. Our lovely and very reliable (until now) car broke down on Saturday.
2. Phil left for Philly on Monday morning leaving me car-less and husband-less for the week
3. I got sick and went to the doc...I usually don't run to the doctor for the simple flu but a sign of lymes disease is flu like symptoms several weeks after having a tick bite. My paranoia had to be reconciled.
4. Chase got his first bloody nose from a nasty fall...and it was BLOODY
5. Chase fell down the full flight of stairs to the basement...thankfully this time no blood was involved.
6. Boggie threw up 4 times last night - different places throughout the house and ALL on the carpet...and one of those piles my foot met intimately...GROSS.
CAUTION TO THE READER...Gross story ahead.
7. Chase took a bath and I left the bathroom for a couple minutes (okay, you can judge me) and upon my return horror struck. Could it really be??? Chase had done the one thing all mothers dread in the bathtub...pooped but my darling little man took it to the next level of wrong and put the poo in his mouth. I freaked out, of course, almost vomited (I was still feeling sick), and then immediately texted my brothers and dad because I knew they would help me find the humor in the situation.
I think I had plenty of reasons to be discouraged this week...however I made it through with a smile mostly due to my awesome friend, Amber who drove me not once but twice to go pick up my car, brought me some of the yummiest ice cream known to man over, took Chase and I out to a fun lunch date to Chick fil A, and offered her taxi services any time we needed them. She really is the best! Also, thanks to my neighbor Karen who called everyday to make sure I was okay, and who drove me to the doc, waited with me and helped out with Chase.
LIFE IS GOOD!!!

no WAY! I'm sorry all of that had to happen! If it makes you feel better, when Dana and I were getting ready for a dance one time, her nephews were taking a bath in there (Steve's kids) and the youngest one all of a sudden started screaming and we looked down and he pooped the biggest poop I've EVER seen in my life and he was like 3 years old. He was holding it in his ands and it was the most foul smell too. Dana and I started screaming and gagging! We still talk about it! (I know, gross!)
okay...here is another story. Before diapers had the elastic around the legs, uh,things would fall out...and sometimes you didn't get them all found.
Later....Toddler had been eating from a little box of raisins.
I was cleaning the floor and saw a raisin on the floor. I popped it into my mouth and found out really fast...IT WAS NOT A RAISIN!!
Washed my mouth for a week!!
Oh that is a long time with no car! I can't believe you made it this long with no poop in the tub, that must be a record or something!! I caught a like 6 month old Lily just in time before she put a recently pooped piece of corn in her mouth...
