Photohunt: chipped

While Husband was deployed, one of the few goals I had was to NOT go to the emergency room.....well, we almost didn't make it. While we were outside playing, Will comes up to me, "I hurp my poop."

Me: "What? You pooped! "

Will: (his lips curled around his teeth): "No, I hurt my pooth."

Me: finally understanding lip-curled-over-the-teeth speak: "You hurt your tooth? Let me see." There is no blood and he is speaking, so I thinking he just bumped it.

Will, showing me the DENT on the handlebars of his bike: "My mouth hit it here!"

Me, feeling a tad more worried after seeing tooth dust on the bar...."Yep, buddy, you chipped it."

Just the tiniest bit chipped off the corner of his tooth. He was so worried the other kids would laugh at him at school. But by the next morning he was fine.

Whew hoo....another crisis averted....move on grasshopper, at that point we only had 17 more days to go!

Next week's theme: furry

Thursday 13, the letter W

Keeping with my ABC theme....the letter W

1. Will-Of course my favorite W of all time. This is actually in Will's Tuesdays with Will book . He is nine months old here. It is still one of my favorite shots of him!

2. Wreath-I pretty much always have a wreath on the door. Now there is one with multicolored eucalyptus one.

3. Warm- I like my coffee luke warm, not quite cold...but warm. My new flavor is chocolate mint. yummi-licious!

4. Water- I go to sleep to a playlist on my Ipod called Nature sounds...it is like mellow orchestra music mixed in with rain.

5. more Water- I took this with the kids' camera...driving down the road. Well, I wasn't really driving. I was stopped, waiting for traffic so I could turn. Love the water droplets on the window!

6. West-This is the farthest western state I have lived. I LOVE the seasons here so far.

7. Write- I have never kept up with a written paper journal. But I enjoy blogging so much. I started this blog when Husband was deployed. He has been back from a 15 month deployment almost a year....and I am still at it.

8. Wheat- I could eat frosted mini wheats cereal for breakfast most days!

9. Whoo Hoo! When I saw this sign coming home from the commissary, I pulled in to fill up, even though I had half a tank. You know I was saying "whoo hoo!!"

10. whimsical- I try add a little whimsical piece in each room of my home. Kind of a little funky in each room.

11. Wipe- I wipe down my sink with Windex (another reminder of My Big Fat Greek Wedding!) every night....I love me some shiny sink.

12. Wild- I don't think I was ever the wild child....nope, not me!

13. Wake - One child or the other wakes up every single solitary night. While I don't want to rush these preschool years....I am was HONKIN' excited for those lazy sleeping teen years! But I think that might be one of the only thing I like about those years...so I am not rushing it!

Photohunt: It's a SAD sad world

Okay, this picture totally cracks me up every time I see it. We had just moved to Leavenworth at the time. It was just a little walk around the ball park to a little duck pond that was on the golf course. We thought it would be fun to use some stale hamburger buns to feed the ducks. We stopped on the dock to watch some kids fish, then walked around to the other side to see the ducks.

Husband pulled the first bun out of the baggie and tossed a piece to the ducks (thinking Will would do the same). Will flipped out! In his best whiny two year old voice, he hollered, "MY bread!" He was ready to go dive into the water to get his bread back. I was lucky enough to catch this Kodak moment.

Needless to say, we didn't feed the ducks any more of HIS bread. He ate the rest of it on the walk back to the house. It took a few more trips to watch the ducks before he would feed them.

This is a "vintage" Tuesday Update post from Feb '07. But I think of it when I think of sad.
