Some of these are so old news, I almost didn’t want to share, but this is for my journaling. So Kaitlyn has taken to calling people honey. The first time, I was on the computer bloging and she wanted my attention, I didn’t respond to Mom so she said Honey. That definitely got my attention and made me giggle. Since it was so successful she’s kept it up. Not only does she occasionally call me honey, but Dad, and Em too. I found out that at school she does it to her teachers too. What a goof ball. I realized I say that a lot, so I know where she got it from!
A while ago we were REALLY interested in a house. We even put an offer down, but got out bid. We spent lots of time dreaming of how we’d fix up this house. So one Saturday we drove up to Menards (think home depot) to check out what they had and prices. We were down the sink aisle and Ryan and I were walking out, and turned to say Come on Kaitlyn, when one of the sink displays fell on top of her! Neither one of us got there in time to catch it. That was so scary to see. Poor Kaitlyn was just trying to open the cabinets, but it was just free standing. So it came down and landed on top of her and shattered just above her head. She was WAY freaked out. We thought everything was fine, minus the huge mess, but a few minutes later I saw blood on my arm where I’d held her. We were mostly concerned for her legs but upon closer examination found a cut on the back of her head. That really freaked me out. I thought there might be some porcelain stuck in her head. We took her to the hospital and everything turned out fine. Just a little cut. Heavenly Father sure protected her. I kept thinking of all those Parent’s articles about children dying from knocking furniture on themselves. Good news, this is one thing she doesn’t have a short attention span on. We had to go back to Menards a week later and Kaitlyn wouldn’t even get out of the basket. I think she was pretty scared of that store.
Just before my birthday I went and got my license renewed. That doesn’t really sound worth mentioning, but it’s my first time to not have a Texas license. I was so sad to give that up. So I am now an official Wisconsinite. Craziness.
And finally for some pictures! At the beginning of the summer the circus came to town! It was pretty cool. A great time was had by all. And the girls did really well not begging for all the million different things to buy.
The fun rides as you walk in
Mom and the girls waiting for the show to start
The Tigers (way cool!)
Lots of acrobats and the flying trapeze
The Elephant
Motorcycle ring (I think they got up to 6 in there, crazy!)
