Surviving the weekend!

We made it through the weekend! It was not an easy task this weekend! I had planned a nice quiet weekend of getting things picked up and ready for the baby's arrival...I should have known better. Saturday morning the kids decided to go outside a play, while I finished up the dishes. I noticed out the window they were playing on the slipper slide and having a lot of fun. So I decided to take the camera out and get some pictures. Well, I managed to get one picture before Hanna slid Kade down the slide and right into Haleigh's mouth. Haleigh came out of the deal bleeding from her two front teeth. I brought her in the house to check things over. Her teeth were loose and lots of blood. As I was trying to get it stopped, Hanna brought Kade in the house. He too was bleeding from his leg. He had blood running down his shin. Apparently he had tripped and fell on a spring of the trampoline, scrapping his leg and forehead! We got everyone mended by lunch. I had called and spoke to the dentist who thought that Haleigh's teeth should tighten back up and suggested that she not use them to eat for about a week.
After lunch, it was rest time....and I was ready for a rest. The girls don't usually sleep, but they know they have to be quiet and can't be up and running around during this time. Apparently, they thought that they could get away with some wrestling! Hanna came to get me to; she told me know that Haleigh was bleeding from her teeth again. I asked what had happened and she wasn't sure. After stopping the bleeding again, I asked what had happened. Haleigh thought it could have been when she hit Hanna's head with her mouth. I strongly suggested that they not be in touching distance of one another for the rest of the day! By now Haleigh's teeth are very loose!
So that evening we were all watching a movie and playing in the living room. Hanna was dancing around and swung her arm back not realizing where she was.... her forearm landed right across Haleigh's mouth. Again with all the blood coming from her poor teeth! While I got the ice pack, Kade started screaming! He had managed to put his play cell phone into the VCR player, getting his hand stuck in there with it. It was stuck in there well! He ended up tearing off a chunk of skin from the top of his finger before he was able to get free.
By bedtime Hanna was declaring herself the only kid that could get through the day without bleeding!
We seemed to get through Sunday without blood or injury! Haleigh's teeth are still loose, but they haven't fallen out ....yet! Kade spent the day showing everyone his "ouchies."
We did manage to get a few things on my list done and the rest I think can be accomplished before Wednesday morning. As you can see by the time I can't sleep all night, so I have been making list of things to do or get and trying to find quiet things to do. We have a busy next two days...so I am sure that I will forget something.
Hanna has a t-ball game tonight. So if it goes like last week, we won't get home until 8:30 tonight. Then Tuesday the girls have dance and gymnastics, so we won't get home until about 7:00. Then Wednesday morning we will need to leave here about 5:00 am to head to the hospital.... I am starting to think that it's a good thing I know when the baby is coming... life is so busy...not sure how I would handle a surprise arrival :)

Check back after Wednesday and meet the newest member of our family!
