So, just when we thought things couldn't get worse, Kevin had to make a trip to the ER last night with Peyton. We're going to see how many of these little hospital bracelets we can collect by the end of the month.:)
He had taken the girls to his basketball game, (he wasn't playing, just went to support the team), and the girls were off playing with a bunch of other kids. I guess there was a little ball with a handle on it, the kind kids can bounce on, and Peyton was playing on it and "went out of control" according to Halli, going head first into the door.
From what I hear, there was blood everywhere, her face was pretty much covered in it, and she had it all over her clothes too. Kevin said that once they got to the ER she was a tough cookie and did great when they put the stitches in. luckily, today she's been great and hasn't complained at all , except when we have to change the bandaid that's covering the stitches, and that's just because when we take the bandaid off, it pulls the little hairs on her forehead.
Here are a few pictures of our little girl in the ER
Our tough little girl sporting her 5 stitches this morning. 
So right when we thought were about done with doctor visits, we'll be going back next week for Jaden, and now for Peyton as well...if only they were on the same day.
There are a few updates as well,. Kevin went to the doctor, and it's just a REALLY bad high ankle sprain. It's the worst you can do without breaking it or tearing a ligament and it'll probably take a month or two to heal, so that'll be fun!
As for Jaden, on wednesday his biliruben level was 10.9 and this morning it was 11.4 , so it's gone up, but not alot. Enough that we have to go back into the pediatrician AGAIN monday morning to have them checked. Poor boy and his bruised heels. :( But I'm feeling pretty good that by monday the numbers will be down and we'll be able to stop getting them checked.
I'm still hurting, but it'll probably take a few weeks before I'm feeling better, so thankfully my mom is coming into town tomorrow to help out. YEAH! I'm kinda excited!
I'm just REALLY hoping that this is the end, and from here on out it's getting healthy and getting used to having four little kidlets to watch over.

SHEESH~ What a mess. I am so sorry. I can't believe your mom wasn't there before. What a hard way to get used to having four! My sympathies.

So sorry! Hope things start looking up!
Oh, poor little Peyton. I feel so bad for her. Sorry about all the mishaps with the family.I'm glad your Mom is coming.
I got a really bad sprain like Kevin and was shocked that it wasn't broken. I hurt it at the beginning of summer and when I started teaching in the Fall, it was still sensitive and would even swell from staying on my feet so much. Crazy!
