Princess Stitches

This morning I decided to re-arrange our living room to make it seem “larger”….while taking a lamp out to the garage Bailey ran in from the other direction right into an edge of the lamp.  She ended up with a gash on her lip that went all the way through Sad smile.  She was a champ and held her bandages to her lip the whole way to the ER.  Luckily, a friend met us in the parking lot of the hospital and took Tales for a couple hours!

Bailey and I waiting for the doctor to do stiches.  They did not use any Novocain, rather just this bandage soaked in a numbing solution.  Pretty cool!

Bailey received 3 stitches and did FANTASTIC!  She had to lay very still with a towel draped over her head (she couldn’t see).  The doctor took his time to try and get it perfect since it was on her face.  Couldn’t have been prouder of her.  She wanted to go to Rita’s afterward…after not eating since breakfast at 8am, by 3:30pm I was ready to get here whatever she wanted!

Eventually I did get the living room re-arranged.  I got rid of one of our end tables and moved the couch around.  At least you can walk around the whole room now.  Hopefully buyers will agree!

New Bern

While my parent’s were here we took a trip to New Bern.  We first went to Tyron Palace gardens.  So pretty!  There are a lot of historical buildings to peruse, but with 2 kiddos in tow we decided to just stroll around the gardens.  We had PERFECT weather and it was an awesome day!

“Fishy” Papa and “Barbie” Grandma with the girls Smile.

New Bern’s mascot is the “bears”.  There were bears dressed up as all different things (banker, sailor, dentist, etc) all over downtown.  We loved trying to find them all.

Taylor spent a good 15 minutes running and chasing the birds…she finally decided to “sneak” up on one.  lol.  As you can see, the bird took flight as soon as she got too close!

We finished up the day with ice cream from the Cow CafĂ©.  So yummy.

Taylor’s presents….ahem…

Taylor received some awesome presents for her birthday.  Bailey was her “helper”.  Smile.

Here are Taylor’s 2 new dresses.  Bailey just HAD to wear them…lol. I assure you Tales wore them too.

The purple one is a Rapunzel dress my MIL made…it is amazing!

I found the Cinderella dress at a consignment store (hey…she doesn’t know it isn’t brand new Smile)
