Rebecca had her first bad accident last week. She fell out of her stroller at WalMart and got this cut. 6 stitches later, she is ok. She tells me so all the time. "I'm ok, Mommy. My nose is ok." I was not sure for a while though! It is soooo scary to have your child bleed and scream like that. I think I cried as much as she did. So I've learned my lesson and she will ALWAYS be strapped in from now on. I just feel so bad every time I look at this cut on her sweet little face. She gets the stitches out tomorrow and I'm a little nervous for how that will go. She had to be put to sleep to get them in and I'm thinking I'll be holding her down to get them out. Wish me luck!
On to happier topics...our bathroom is coming along! HOORAY!!! Maybe this week I'll be able to shower, I'm really tired of baths.
A friend invited us up to her cabin in Island Park and we had such a great time there.
We went on this paddle boat and on a beautiful hike. So nice to just be outside enjoying nature. We haven't done that enough this year.
Rebecca's little friend is back 3 days a week, and Rebecca is in heaven. EVERY night, she asks if Calista is coming tomorrow. It's part of the bedtime ritual.
They have a great time together and I'm glad that Seth finished "The Back Yard" last month. It's nice to have a place that is small and fenced for the kids to be. The sandbox is a hit with Rebecca. We played in it for almost 2 hours yesterday. Nice!
And I can't wait for next year when these garden boxes will be overflowing with veggies and flowers. It will be so pretty! It's so nice to have a husband who knows how to build and fix stuff. Our house and yard are looking better all the time!
We went to help with the wheat harvest last weekend. Rebecca liked riding on the combine for about 2 minutes and then...
She was out! Seth says he used to sleep in the combine all the time too when he was little.
I bought 70 ears of corn and husked and froze it all. YUM!! But now I'm thinking I need a bigger freezer...
And I was feeling ambitious a few months ago and bought this quilt pattern that I thought was so cute. I don't sew, but I thought I'd make it anyway. Good thing Seth has such a great mom and sisters who have helped me with this project. I got it cut out in July with one sister, and then Seth's mom gave me a quick sewing lesson and I got started sewing it last weekend. I'm so proud of myself and it is so fun! I can't wait to do some more! My goal is to have it done for Rebecca for Christmas. It is so cute, I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Oh, poor little Rebecca! It's TERRIBLE when your kids get hurt!!! I always cry, too!
And Seth is such a great builder! I love your new "backyard!"
What a trooper she has been! Way to go on all the extras. I love having my freezer! Steve got it for me for my birthday and I have enjoyed being able to coupon and have so much space to put it. AND I can say from first hand experience that you back yard and your bathroom look great! I am excited to see the finished bathroom.
I hope the stiches came out nicely. I should have called. I will call tomorrow. I am so glad that calista and rebecca are such good friends. It is so fun to watch them both grow.
Very Cute Kristy! Can't wait to see your quilt, you are inspiring!!
