Sorry, this is my first video. I didn't know it had to be facing the right direction :)
I also hope it's not too loud.
They had a great time singing about how they love it when daddy gets home.

This is old, but I still need to post it.
A Mon. night the first part of Oct. Aaron couldn't sleep, he was going to St. Louis for work and was worried about leaving me and the kids. I reassured him, we'll be fine. :) Tue morning before he had even landed we had a problem. I was helping one of the kids when I heard a loud thud in the kitchen, you know that sound of a head hitting somehing hard. Judd had been on the kitchen table helping himself to breakfast. He fell off and hit hard. I wasn't there to watch, but Levi said, mom, he almost did a back flip.
At first I wasn't too worried, but it got bigger and bigger. I called our Dr. They said "keep an eye on him" if he's acting abnormal take him to the ER for an x-ray. I called my good friend Amy for her wise opinion. "keep an eye on him" He's OK, I'm convincing myself. Then he's acting funny, I think I'm going to take him in, but I can't do it by myself. I've been to the ER lots of times with Gage, but not by myself with 3 kids, and our insurance has changed, and we haven't met our deductable, and... The doorbell rings. It's Amy! (she felt like she should come over). She makes the decision I couldn't convince myself to do. We're going. I decide on Primary's because I know it well and figure the insurance will work there. We make the long drive and I'm "watching him" the whole time. First he's crying weird, then he falls asleep, lethargic?... Once we got there I thought let's just "watch him" a little longer before we go in and rack up a big bill for nothing. He was moving a little gingerly, but smiling. We got something to eat at the wonderful (sarcasm) cafeteria and he was eating and happy and seemed fine so we drove home. Amy smiled as she dropped me off at home and said thanks for the call and the lunch date. (big smile). I'm so thankful for her friendship and her listening to the spirit and coming when I needed her help.
I'm also grateful he was fine even though he looked pretty rough for a couple of weeks. This pic was about a week after it happened. The goose egg is looking better in this pic, but the black eyes got even worse.
