I guess it had to happen sometime...

Elliot got his first semi-serious injury (sorry no pic, but he was not in the mood for photography, understandably!). He was stepping up to the patio and lost his footing and bit it face first onto the concrete. Poor little guy was gushing blood. Of course it looked much worse than it was, but it scared us both to death. After we got him cleaned up, we noticed he had not only scraped up his chin and nose, but had also bitten the inside of his lip. His bottom lip is purple and swollen on the inside. It wasn't bad enough for a doctor's visit, but it has been the worst injury he's had since the dog scratch (which only gave him a tiny black eye and only phased him for a few seconds). I know I should be thankful that my boy is almost 3 and we've had very few owies, but it was so hard to see him in pain. He's becoming less cautious everyday, so I'm sure I'm going to have to develop a tougher skin for these things!

This One's For Aunt Jamie!

Elliot is sporting Shanley's hand-me-down Ragweed shirt. It's still a little big on him so he wears it as a nightshirt- SO CUTE! I know she'd be tickled that he's wearing it. We had a really fun weekend! Elliot got to spend the whole weekend with Nana and Pappy. They got a swimming pool for the backyard and he had a ball!

He also enjoyed happy hour with Pappy :)

Kevin and I went to Yukon on Friday where Kevin rocked out at the Horseshoe. A lot of our friends came to see him play and we had a blast! One of his most fun shows! On Saturday, we went to Norman and celebrated DJ's birthday with a fun BBQ at his and Lindsey's house. It was great to catch up with our friends! Of course, I forgot to take pictures of any of it :( I need to get better at that!

We're Baaaaaaaaaaack!

Going to take another stab at this blogging thing! I hate that I missed posting so many things that have happened over the past 10 months! But, we'll see if we can get back on track!

Last night was Kevin's 29th birthday! I can't believe how quickly the time goes. I remember throwing him a small party for his 20th birthday on Donna Drive. We bought a blow up swimming pool for the backyard and had so much fun! For this birthday, we both took off work and had a fun day at home with E. I cleaned and took care of both guys while Kev got to rest and relax. We went to Iron Starr for dinner with Jim and Cheryl and then headed back to the house for cake and ice cream where Dottie, Papa, Jen, Erin, Taylor, Bailey, Kevin Fox, and Jeff all joined us. We had a great time hanging out on the patio watching the kids play in the water. E managed to get me, Dottie, and Kevin Fox with the hose too!! It was a blast and I think Kevin had a good day :)

Elliot, Taylor, Erin, and Bailey- E wouldn't cooperate & look at the camera, but it's a good pic of the other kids!
