Five Little Monkeys...

jumping on the bed.

One fell off and bumped his head.

Mom and Dad took him to the emergency room

and the doctor said,

"No More Monkeys Jumping On The Bed!"

Levi got 4 staples in his head. There was a lot of blood, lots and lots of blood. Levi is just fine and started running around as soon as the doctor stapled him and gave him a drink of water. Thank goodness Patty was home next door and could watch the other kids when we took our run to the emergency room.

Carowinds!

We were lucky enough to be able to go with Spencer's band to Carowinds Amusement Park this past Saturday. The kids had a blast and the lines in the kiddie part were quite short. What a day! What a long, long, long day!

Hunter and Ella-marie loving the carousel!

Amber and Levi, just resting for a moment.

This picture is an action picture, taken whilst whirling at top speeds in the hot-air balloons of death. Miles and Corbin are not screaming, yet...

This is during the same ride, and Levi is a little worse for wear. But what a fun time it is!

Levi finally took a nap at 7pm for exactly 10 minutes. Totally unacceptable, but there wasn't anything we could do about it.
