Ouch!

Friday night (Oct. 16th) my Mom came over to our house, and thank goodness she did! As we all know, Hailee absolutely LOVES dancing to Barney! She gets extremely hyper and runs around like crazy to the songs! My Mom and I were watching her and laughing at how funny she was being, when all of a sudden she tripped and took a head dive into the t.v. hutch! She started screaming! We ran over there and her head started swelling up! My Mom was holding her while I was rubbing her back and holding ice to her head when she closed her eyes, and stopped breathing! (Unless her breathing just became extrememly shallow) and then a few seconds later (which seemed like minutes!) she gasped for air and started breathing normally again! It was seriously so scary! I was so happy my Mom was there to not only comfort Hailee, but to comfort me too! Its always so hard to see your little girl get hurt!

This picture doesn't do justice of how it looks. I should have taken another picture of her today because now her eyelid and above her eye is black and blue! But you can see how swollen her eyebrow is! Poor girl! Thankfully she is doing great again! Kids are so tough!Onto a more happier subject, Hailee has a new love for painting! I bought her some finger paints, but she prefers using the paint brushes instead. She is so funny with things being "dirty" now. My Mom had told her about a week ago that her binki was dirty so she threw it right out of her mouth! Every day that she tries to keep her binki in her mouth, we tell her its dirty and she throws it right away! Hopefully we can get her off of one for good! She doesn't want anything to do with dirty stuff now! Such a girl! Love it!
