What a day!

I did a little packing yesterday and got caught up on ALL the laundry, thank god because today has been one of those days. We had our Christmas last night so the babies stayed up until about 8:30. We had so much fun! We had a huge pile of boxes, wrapping paper in the living room the babies crawled in and out of it and played with their new toys. Ashley got all she ever wanted she was very surprised, so that is good. She got clothes, perfume, a docking station for her Ipod, robe/slippers, shoes, Betsey Johnson purse, books plus she has more stuff in Houston that I shipped there. It's so hard to shop for a 14 yr old let alone surprise them. Aaron did very very well this year with my gifts. He has really surprised me not only last night but in the past few months too. He got me a chocolate brown diamond ring, Wii fit, PINK Ipod, and a Kitchen aid mixer. I got him some clothes, PS3 and the Dark Night on Blu Ray. The babies got books, chairs, kitchen and a few clothes. I didn't go all out for them since I know they will get more stuff in Texas. Ok so that was our night. Our day whew...... we ate breakfast, Preston did not want to eat so I just let him down to play. After I cleaned up the house from last night we played with their new stuff and things were going great until Preston screamed out. He was pushing the box from my mixer across the floor and it came out from under him and he face planted right into the floor. He was gushing blood and of course I freak out and start bawling. I pulled his lip up and it looks like when he fell he smashed his top gums with his bottom teeth. I gave him a frozen teether to suck on and some Tylenol and he seemed fine after about 45 mins. Boy did it scare me though. I didn't realize how much they bleed from the mouth.
Once the excitement from Preston settled down Lily decided it was her turn for the spotlight.

Take a look...........

YAY!! Thank you thank you thank you for that video.. aww.. I miss those guys.. :(
Poor Preston.. Lip injuries are the scariest because they seem to gush blood the most.. but they usually are quite minor.. You did a good job with the teether and tylenol.. Great job mom ;) I cant wait to see you guys tomorrow!!(I am praying no delays or cancelations)

Poor Preston... I hope that he's back to normal by now. Lily looks adorable - I can't believe that she's walking... it seems like just a few weeks ago they were tiny little babies showing up at FOH for the first time!

Poor Preston. I probably would have cried too, if it were Kiera!

That is soo cute! Your babies are getting soo big! Congrats on Lily walking. That is soo exciting.

I know all about mouth gashes..Sam is a major clutz and falls down all the time. A few weeks ago i ended up in the pedi dentists' office b/c she ripped her gums..talking about bleeding. Poor baby..i hope Preston is feeling better now.
