2nd & 3rd Days of School 2015-2016 = A Fat Lip :(


The second day of school {Spirit wear for Eli} started off so well . . . 
He was super excited for another fun day at Kindergarten.

AND Alli and her buddy Lilja were happy to pose for a pic together outside their class :-)

All was going so great . . .  both kiddos were happy and smiling at the end of the day and ready to play with neighborhood buddies for a while before Karate.  Even better, G was coming home that night so we were all looking forward to seeing him.  

Around 4pm, while talking to G on the phone, I called Eli over the walkie talkie to let him know it was time to come home to get ready for Karate.  Less than a minute later, I heard the screaming.  
I quickly hung up with G and opened the front door to see our wonderful neighbor 
carrying Eli to our door ~ his face covered in blood.
While running home, he tripped over a neighbor's bike and landed on his face, biting through his top lip :*(  He was in so much pain and it was clear a trip to the Doc was in order.  My dear friend was fabulous and took Alli and Lukey so I could get Eli to Urgent Care.
He was a trooper but he was in a lot of pain.
Thankfully, he got in right away and they were able to close the wounds with glue.
I am amazed by how resilient this little man is, after ice, Tylenol and getting glued, he was ready to eat some Subway and wanted to go home and play some more ~ Wow!!!

The next morning, he looked worse as far as swelling and scrapes but he said he felt better.
Mr. J even gave him a "Brave Boy" prize so life was great!!!
This was all the smile he could muster with his fat lip :-)

The best part about this day was that Daddy was home!!!!!!!
All three kiddos were thrilled to see Daddy and are looking forward to a fun weekend.
