Week at a glance

This was all last week.  Sunday, Molly stuck a small blue candy up her nose at church.  I hope the lesson was learned about sticking things in the nose.  Thankfully, it was candy and started dissolving.  Blue was running out of her nose.  We were eventually lucky enough to blow her nose and it came out.  Just in time for the babysitter to get there and Floyd and I to go to my "thanks for being on consistory at church" brunch.  Which by the way, that morning at church, I had coffee duty, had to say a little something about being on consistory, then brunch.  I had no time for Molly and her blue candy that her daddy had given her.  I saw her rolling it on the floor and told her not to put it in her mouth, didn't think I needed to say "don't stick it up your nose"  I will have to add that to my list of warnings.

 
By Thursday, she must have been bored so she took a head dive off a chair at the grocery store.  She likes to eat lunch in the deli department and watch people when we go grocery shopping.  We got there around lunchtime so I said sure, hoping this would mean easier shopping trip and home for naptime.  wrong!  While I was paying for lunch, she climbed up in a chair 5 ft from me.  She decided it was dirty and went to get off the chair but she was on her knees and her foot got caught on her jeans.  so down she went, head first onto a cement floor.  WOW!  Once, she calmed down she asked for her macaroni and cheese and ate it all!  While she ate, I called Floyd and the dr.s.  We were able to get right in.  She was a trooper.  No tears at the dr.s just wanted to read a Snow White.  the Dr.  pushed on her bump trying to see if there were any broken bones and she just sat there.  he kept asking her "does this hurt" finally she said "yup" in her soft voice.  I was ready to cry/kill him for pushing on her bump that was huge and looked so painful!  No damage just an ugly bump that is totally covered by her bangs.  She needs a haircut but I may wait another week until it goes down a little more.  Dr. said it may take a few weeks.  These pictures were taken 3 or 4 days after the fall.

cute little piggies.  her first pedicure.

Life Events of Molly

Molly has had a few days hit or miss with wearing her big girl panties. (which she is really excited about).  Yesterday she wore them all day with no accidents.  She even went to play at Rich and Kate’s.  Before we left to go to their house, I asked her if she wanted to put on a pull up to go play.  She just looked at me and said “Mom, they have a toilet too”.  Duh!  We had another successful day today.  Yeah!!! 

Today proved to be another day of firsts.  She stuck a small blue candy up her nose at church.  She had found it on the floor-no idea what from.  I was working in the kitchen with coffee hour duty when I told her not to put it in her mouth.  Next thing I know, she has her finger in her nose telling me something is in there.  I asked her where the blue candy was-“in my nose”  GREAT!  Well, we decided to come home and see what we could do since our friend the nurse had already left.  Before we even left church, blue started running out of her nose.  Thankfully, the moisture in her nose was dissolving the candy.  When we got home, another nose blow and out it came.  After all said and done and she is fine.  It really is funny. 

Oh that girl keeps us on our toes. 

I forgot

So I realized when I posted Christmas pictures that I didn’t post Texas pictures but then I was sidetracked and forgot again.  So thanks to Jeanne reminding me, here are pictures from Texas.  This covers feeding the ducks (Molly’s morning job with PawPaw), playing with all the cousins, our trip to Austin and San Antonio (the Alamo and Riverwalk with all the cool lights), and Molly’s first horse ride.
