An Interesting Saturday

today was a busy, activity filled day for the kids. first we met my parents for lunch at a mcdonalds that had a playground so that they could play and enjoy themselves. which they did. here are some pictures from today:

the kids at the pool:

here is one of my daughter in the pool:

here is one of the kids leaving the house to go to the ice cream shop:

here is them at outside the ice cream shop:

here is another one outside the ice cream shop (i just couldnt get a good picture of the two of them at once:

here is my son in the ice cream shop, mmmm good ice cream:

and here is my daughter in the ice cream shop:

so the kids had fun which was really good. but then we had an incident at night about an hour before they had to go to bed where apparently my daughter threw a shoe and apparently it hit him in the lip, and split both his top and bottom lip open, and he was screaming and gushing blood all over. and she was screaming and saying that she was sorry, i dont know if it was an accident and she was sorry that it happened or if she was sorry because she meant to do it and that it had hurt him so bad. i still didnt get that information from both of them. so anyway it ended up with the bleeding stopping and his lip looking like this:

so that is great, i probably gained another 4 or 5 gray hairs in my head from that. so now my son looks like someone was beating up on him, and he has to go to school on monday. great, and i am sure that he will tell them exactly how he got this too, there goes that mother of the year award for not watching them every minute. not that it is possible too. anyway so that gave me a scare there. i thought for a minute that i was going to have to take him to the hospital to get stitches from the amount of blood that he was gushing. so thankfully i didnt have to do that.
