Bath, Fall, Blood, Chipped Tooth....

Yes you read that right....a chipped tooth. Madeline and Macy were taking a bath and daddy sent Macy to me wrapped in a towel to get her clothes on. She stepped on the front of the towel and fell FACE FIRST onto the tile floor. As you can imagine, the screams came, then the blood, and then I noticed the piece of chipped tooth lying on her bottom lip...UGH! I was afraid is was much worse with as much blood as there was but it was just a busted lip and a chipped front tooth. We doctored it, gave her the Nemo cold pack, and loved on her a lot and she amazingly felt better. She has a nasty looking lip and a crooked little smile (the tooth). I just hope it doesn't look too bad as she grows or the dentist may get a lot of the Mueller's money for a chipped BABY tooth. So that was our excitement for today until we found Mr. Frog in the backyard. I think he entertained the girls for at least an hour. The poor guy. Macy was trying to feed him rocks. She's really into them all of sudden, rocks that is. Madeline went and found some roly poly's to feed to it. We finally had to just leave him be for the night. We have had a very lazy, but nice weekend. We need more of these. Although there are a million things that need to be done around the house we decided to just enjoy the weather and get outside. The girls even went swimming next door. It's going to be a summer in the pool for sure. Oh and I did cut Macy's hair short to make it all one length. The poor child hardly had any hair but with it being shorter it makes it look thicker and I hope it will start growing in better. You may be able to tell in some of the pictures. Some of you have asked too about my friends Chad and Kelly and their baby Brayden. He is still in critical condition. The open heart surgery went very well with only one minor complication that was fixed quickly. He was recovering great. This past Sunday they were able to close his chest and they were able to take him off the ventilator Wed. morning. However, Wed. late afternoon he began to bleed out of his mouth and it took them almost 3 hours to get it to stop. He lost a lot of blood and had to receive a lot in return. They aren't sure what caused the bleeding but my the power of hundreds of people praying God heard those prayers and stopped the bleeding. The doctors were stunned and were even calling what happened a miracle. They were almost to the point where they were going to come and talk to my friends about stopping treatment. Praise God. Please continue to keep them all in your prayers. Here are a few pictures from this weekend and a video. Enjoy.... Macy's lip right after we got her all cleaned up. Another shot. Poor girl. It's even bigger now. Our friend, Mr. Frog.

You will notice that Macy has on the Elmo pajamas that used to be Madeline's. I have to hide them from her because if she sees them that is all she wants to wear. She found them today so other than her bathing suit that is all she has worn.
