This morning we knew was going to be a crazy one. We had a doctors appointment for Ellie is SoJo and I had to get four girls ready and get out the door on time. This usually means I shower with Ellie, Elsie, and Emry. Emma takes Emry from there and gets her dressed. I finish off with the girls and I get out. They stay in for a bit while I get dress and what not. Today was business as usual until Ellie comes flying out of the shower falls to the ground and starts crying. I pick her up and tell her she is okay, that is, until I look at her ankle and see it already turning purple. We were already running late and she needed to go to this appointment. Im still not even dressed. I am thinking holy crap, it is broken and I have to get dressed which means I have to let go of her ankle. It felt so selfish. I quickly call my dad and he Face Times with me (after I get dressed). He said it looked bruised but not broken. AMEN! So we continue on our way. It turns out that Elsie and Ellie were shoving each other in the shower "for fun" and they didn't know the door would open. Pain in the butt kids. I will have to say though that it sure looks painful.
We called grandma on our way down to see if we could swing by her house after the appointment. It turns out that she too had an appointment with her doctor and we would probably miss her. She then decided to some meet us by our appointment and take us to lunch. It was very nice of her. The girls loved this quick visit with grandma.
The girls were a bit bummed that they didn't get to go to grandma's house and see grandma B too. So we decided to stop in and see grandma B. It was a fun visit. I learned a lot about her family, her parents, her siblings, her engagement... It was neat to hear all of her stories that she shared with me.
