So bad mother move right there. Then on Friday I got a call from the school nurse of whom I already know which child got hurt. Can you guess? Mason of course. At lunch recess ran into another kid and hurt his noggin. Mason felt sick to his stomach (which is a sign of a concussion for those of you who have not gone through this...I can't tell you how many times I have been through this with my kids and Mitchel) So I said "OK I'll come get him". I figured how hard could he have hit his head on another kid and the other kid is fine. So once again I blew off the symptoms and said "your fine". I needed to run a few errands so I took Mason with me. He was falling asleep in the car of which "OK he is tired today". I'm at the library talking to the lady at the help desk when all of a sudden Mason starts throwing up. There was nothing around and I didn't know what to do so I opened my purse to let him throw up in. Embarrassed as I was cleaning up throw up off the floor in the library (on a very busy day I might add) I realized Mason truly got hurt today. So I got Mason and my purse full of throw up and went home. I guess after the years of kids getting hurt I have become a bit mundane. If there is not blood spewing out or there is clearly a bone sticking out somewhere I tend to say "oh your fine". I think I need to be a bit more sympathetic.....And the winner of "the Bad Mother" award goes to.... ME!
This weekend we got together with Mitchel's family to celebrate October Birthdays. About once a month we gather and who's ever B-day is in that month we celebrate instead of gathering each time for each B-day. Too many people to do that. Since it's so close to Halloween most of the kids wore their costumes. Here are all the cousins together. Anyways it was really fun. My very creative sister in law JoLynn put together some fun games for all the cousin's to play. This one was "Bobbing for Donuts" 
What B-day party wouldn't be complete with out cake!! We always have a good time with Mitchel's family. All the kids have a great time playing as well as the adults. I feel very blessed to be a part of this family.
Well for October break we took another trip to Mexico. We stayed with our friends Chad & Stephanie and their two kids Cody & McKenna. We had a great time. Our kids really seem to get along and have a good time with each other. What was also nice is we knew many people that were going down there too and so all our kids had a ton of friends to play with. I hardly saw Sydney that whole weekend. This pic of my foot is my view I had all day on Friday sitting by the pool, watching the ocean and best of all relaxing while the kids played on the water slide or lazy river or the ocean. 
This is Mason about to get knocked over by the Oceans waves.
And a Mexico trip wouldn't be complete without taking time to go to the dirt mall. This is Syd & some friends after the dirt mall with their cool new shades. Oh it was a fun trip. So glad we got the opportunity to go again thanks to Chad & Steph. Thanks guys you are the best!
