Who needs a baby sling!

This was taken at a Geocaching event....  Thanks for the picture Jodi.

So today is a crazy day.  We had an appointment at 7:30 which would not have been bad... but no one had sleep.  Matthew didn't sleep and I was worried all night (I was afraid he wouldn't wake me so I just annoyed him all night "honey you okay".  Jackson's little knock out was worse than we thought and he was delirious all day.  He actually is just now starting to look better finally, I was starting to think night two in the ER.  So Matthew is recommended for convalescent leave... I hope he gets it.  Although 26 days straight with him may get a little hairy.

Ford Family photos are 75% done and will be completed tomorrow.

Little Rinos all pictures are in and will be dropped off Tuesday.

I have 40+ Emails I will start to open tomorrow.  Check your Spam box.

Don't you just love the little curve balls life throws you... makes things interesting.

Emergency

The other day we were watching the little old Japanese women go into the Crows Nest to play Bingo.  My husband looks at me and said "you would make the worst bingo player, because you are so unlucky".  I looked at him and said yes I am the most unlucky when it comes to lotto, guessing on a test, or bingo.  I am however lucky in life... I have the most amazing husband ( he can be a terd sometimes though), three amazing little kids (who can also be terds), I have a amazing job (every now and again I get a terd client), I live in an amazing place (even though base housing stinks) and just all around pretty darn happy. Exhausted but pretty darn happy. Then I had to go and jinks things....

So I was at home waiting for a client to come when my husband's Msgt comes by and say "how much do you love your husband"  WHAT!!!  He can be kinda of sarcastic (like me)... so I said Why???... because he is in the ER.  He twisted his ankle.. he described it as his left foot is facing right.  So two minutes after hearing this my client comes (sorry I shoved you out the door) and did the mad scramble looking for shoes, diapers, keys, and most important the glorified chew toy....my cell phone.  No Luck so I ran out the door.

So I get there and and I turn the corner and I see this guy with this nasty injury to the foot... horrified I looked at the other foot.  OHH NOO that is Matthew's shoe.  Braylen is like that's Daddy.  It so much worse than I expected it to be...   Matthew was doing good though... he was doped up and a little shaky from being cold.  

So I go down the list of who I can dump my kids on Krystal, Jamie, Victoria.... So I stop by Jamie's first.  Braylen likes her because she took good care of her when she threw up... she lets me know any time I mention Jamie.  NOT HOME!!!!  Then I am like I will chuck them at the babysitter and hope for the best... but then my neighbor who the kids actually like the best (Hidden Eyes Photography) saves the day.  She takes them in and at some point Jack busted his head.  Hopefully he wakes up in the morning..... Back to Matt.

So when I originally got to the hospital they had mentioned surgery so I was freaking out... turns out I didn't need to freak.  They popped it back into place while I was gone and was sooo much better than I expected.

All in all it was an exhausting night and I have to be up in five hours to take him to a few appointments.... but I would say that was pretty darn lucky it wasn't worse.

See Matthew not lucky in bingo, lottery or any of the unimportant stuff... but we are pretty darn lucky.

These guys are my good friends from North Carolina.  We met at a play group when the little guy in the photo was just about one.  A month after they got the orders to come to Okinawa, we got ours.  They are about to move to there next duty station and this time I will  not be following.  Needless to say I am very sad, even though we don't see to much of one another any more.  We need to go get our nails done again before you go.

Okay so last night I was going through files of clients so I know what to edit.  I was flipping through this one and everything is just right.  These are what we like to call SOOC (straight out of camera).  I can't wait to work on this client because it will be easy peazy.
