An Urgent Care Visit!

Well, last Friday, Maddox was putting a toy shovel away before dinner and he slipped/tripped and hit himself in the head causing a huge gash. It bled and bled. 

  

I called a friend who is a nurse and she originally recommended butterfly bandages or steri-strips but then touched base with a friend who is a pediatrician and she said to take him to urgent care. 

  

  

I thought he'd need stitches but the cut was clean on the edges and the doctor was able to get it back together easily. 

He was so brave the whole time and never once fussed. He was GLAD to get that popsicle though! 

I sent Aunt Anne and Uncle Ben an update they said to give him hugs from them. I told him and he asked how we would do that and then they sent hugs for Maddox. ❤️

When we got home, Mason was watching a show and Maddox hopped up and joined him.

The next morning started slowly and Maddox needed lots of snuggles. 

Looking good though! 

Mother's Day Weekend 2020

Mother's Day weekend was a pretty good one even though there were definitely some hard moments. 

We started it off with an Oreo taste test which was a lot of fun!! 

  

Maddox was definitely left with a Oreo belly! 

Maddox's request was to make me a cake for Mother's Day. It turned out so well! 

  

One of my meal requests was creamed beef and Matt delivered. It was fantastic! 

Goodness, I'm so grateful to be their momma. 

Sunday morning, Matt made delicious blueberry cake waffles! 

My guys had a few presents for me, too. 

Right before we headed out on a family walk, our precious neighbor brought strawberry pie. Oh my word. It was delicious. 

Our family walk was precious and I'm so glad my guys agreed to take one with me! 

  

  

After that, I did my Couch To 5K workout and it was awesome. Carried all of my babies with me. ❤️

  

Creations from my boys. ❤️

  

That night, Matt and I had a date night dinner and it was delicious! 

I also received a fantastic massage from Mason...all his idea! 

  

Sunday, some emotions hit me hard and we had to work through them together. The good was ever-present and it was just a sweet weekend together.
