Weekly Recap

I can't seem to find time to blog. I'll try harder, I promise.

Anyway, I have a valid excuse for last week. Joel went out of town Thursday through Sunday and I didn't want to mention it online because I am a paranoid freak about stuff like that. Dylan had two games over the weekend and lost them both. He did good defensively.

On Saturday we had Rachel, Dennis and Marin over for dinner and to spend the night. That was a blast. We played games and laughed.

On Saturday Maddie got a piece of mechanical pencil lead in her eye. Don't ask. I got it out without a trip to the ER. Why is Joel always gone for this stuff. He's always calm as a cucumber while I'm panicking.

Joel got home super late Sunday and went to work Monday. He was pretty tired all day and he had a little accident at work. A 5-pound nail gun fell 10 feet onto his face. he had to have stitches. Good times. He wouldn't let me take a picture.

Maddie has a tooth that is literally hanging there but she won't let anyone pull it out. She's lost 3 teeth and the first two were trauma-free. Dylan pulled them out for her. The last one and this one she freaks out over the thought of taking them out. They are her front top two teeth and I think she's afraid she'll look stupid. Nothing I say changes her mind. Next I'm going to tell her that the tooth fairy is going to come check on her tooth in the middle of the night and yank it out for her. Never mind, then she'll never go to sleep.

Okay, that's all for this week. See ya next week. No, seriously, I'll try harder. I promise.
