Just One

Phew.
Although, I have to say that I was prepared for twins.
Oh well, maybe next time.


In other news, we spent the morning in the ER with Mabel.
Her eyeball (no, not just the area surrounding her eye,
but the actual white part of her eyeball)
was swollen around her iris.
It looked really really sad.
After a thorough cleansing with saline solution,
that for some reason almost caused me to faint,
it is looking much better.
She was very brave.
When we told the kids we were going to go the hospital,
Oliver lost it. He started sobbing.
He was so scared for Mabel.
In a very calm voice, she assured him that she was going to be ok.
I am glad they love each other so much.

  1. What precious little ones. What would cause Mabels eye to do that? Poor little Olibo he was just scared for his Mabel. There really is a baby there. How exciting. I just saw a picture of Breanne's baby too. Wonder if they will be boys or girls. Either one is wonderful!

  4. Little Olibo is so sweet. Crazy about the eye. I did not know an eyeball could get swollen like that. Glad she's okay.

  6. so sorry to hear about your ER day - it reminded me of when Leslie had to take Parker to the ER in LA - not a fun day for momma or kiddos.
    number three looks so great - happy and healthy - life is good!
