Bound to break

Well one of my kids finally broke a bone. Considering how clumsy Charlie is and how rough Oliver is, I can't believe it took this long! Charlie fell off the bed and broke his forearm. He hardly cried about it and was so tired (as it happened right before bedtime ) that he told me he just wanted to go to bed. When I looked at his arm and realized it was deformed, I knew we had to go to the hospital. He was a real trooper and needed very little pain medicine. When he was all splinted up, he asked the orthopedic resident if he wanted to come over our house for a playdate. As we walked out of the emergency room he turned to me and said, "well that was fun!" God bless that kid!

Cheeky Oliver

These are some great, recent shots of my naughty but very sweet Oliver. The last one is of him mesmerized by the original movie "Annie." I gave him a man bun and he hardly flinched!

Ragnar Cape Cod

Rebecca convinced me to run Ragnar Cape Cod with her this year. Unfortunately she had an ankle injury so she couldn't actually run the race but she was our fearless leader nonetheless! My mileage totalled 18 over 24 hours... And that was with one hour of sleep. Ironically it was Mother's Day weekend. I really felt like a tough mother runner! I also got to come home to some lovely presents from Charlie 😀

We love Aunt Chi Chi

Jeremy's Aunt Nancy came to visit this weekend and we had a lot of fun. The boys call her Aunt Chi Chi :-) she's beautiful and fancy! We had dinner out at Del Campo....it was amazing! (As a side note, I got my hair colored for the first time in my life) Charlie had his school's Spring Fling and had a great time! Oliver loved the cookies...shocking :-)
