Banged up and bruised


Mr. Incredible has been gone for less than 36 hours and my house looks like the infirmary!
Beauty was walking with a friend in our neighborhood and she rolls her ankle. Her knee is skinned and her ankle has a huge knot on it.
During intermission of Conference Sweetheart and Dash went outside to draw with chalk on the drive way. Sweetheart had picked up a baseball bat laying on the porch and swung it and hit herself in the head! Nice, she has a good size goose egg on her noggin! Dash had decided to stop drawing with chalk and give his electric scooter a spin. No one carried on over their injuries but they each had an ice pack.

Dash is a tricky person to diagnose because the last time he broke his arm he never cried or complained. He just said, "It hurt a little" and when he needed 7 stitches to the head and 11 internal stitches he was more worried that he would get in trouble. I may be getting x-rays on his hand tomorrow.

We just started baseball season! He is once again an all star player and he made the challenge baseball team as well. He has a game tomorrow and he hurt his left hand which is his throwing hand.

WE have actually had a great time together. I promise I didn't beat them and I didn't feel like beating them either! I hope we have a better go at it next week.

This is sad, but can I say that I was chuckling at Sweetheart hitting herself in the head?! It's funny as long as she's not seriously hurt!

Mr. Incredible, hurry home!! ;)

Oh Goose. 36 hours and the whole place goes wild? Sounds like you have everything under control. Sorry about your Goose egg Beauty. Ouch.

The house will be put together soon. And good luck with the sports. Sounds like you have talented kids for sure.

Everytime Mr. Incredible honks the truck, he is thinking of you. A Goose Honks ya know. Hope times flies until you meet up with him again.

Take care Goose.

Oh masi'i


how come everything happens when the man leaves?

Sounds like they'll be ok, although dash sounds like my Katalina, she broke her collar bone(ouch) never once said it hurt, and went to the doctor for someone else, told her to stand up and asked if she ever hurt her collar bone, I said, no... He said, it is broken see?

Nice mom....

Good luck at the docs tomorrow!

Oh Goose! At least one is still healthy right? Hopefully dash is ok and the xrays confirm that!

Poor kiddies! Sounds like it was "one of those days" when coordination or luck just wasn't on their side. Feel better kids!

Mother Goose,

Ouch! Poor beautiful kids! I hope all their boo boos heals really fast!
When our family was home, my husband traveled for the church a lot and it always seemed that is when everything happened. Take care of you...so someone can nurse them back together!

Wasn't conference incredible?
