Falls and flying straws

Just a few quick pictures to put up from the last few days/weekend. We had a sort of rough weekend. I had a really bad fall over a dog gate and damaged my knees pretty badly on our tiled kitchen floor-it's the 2nd time in about a month that I've fallen hard over one of those gates. The last time was on carpet though so it wasn't such a blow to any joints! I refused to go to the hospital because, well, honestly, I'm sick of the sight of a hospital. So, hopefully, I didn't do any real damage, just some good bruises-I can walk and bend my knees without any pain, so I think I'm good:) Avery was fussy and not herself all weekend and Spencer was attacked by a flying straw and was poked in the eye-it didn't look so good at the time, but is healing nicely. Sigh.

Yesterday, we did head over to my grandparents with the kids and met up with my cousins so Avery could have a little play date. It was a very nice time. We took Spencer to the dr. today for a quick weight check since we put him on regular formula...my big man weighs in at 12lbs. and 11oz. right now!! I don't think they need to worry about him not gaining enough weight:) I'm anxious to see how he does when we start solids in about a month-he just loves to eat!!

Have a great week!

My cousin (Avery's second cousin), Sophie, and Avery playing on the balcony together...Avery wanted to give her hugs all the time!!

After grandpa sang Spencer a polish lullaby, he took a nap on his lap:)
