Dang you, bench!

Last night, Channing and Gavie Ann spent the night with us. We rented Tangled, played with the dollhouse and kitchen, ate dinner, and then played some more! Evie loved having her cousins over. For the first time, she slept with them in the guest bedroom. She was such a big girl and did really well. I should say that I heard her saying, "I pooted! Channing.... Gavie Ann, I pooted! Bahhahhaahha!" Grady and I were listening through the monitor. It was hilarious listening to her try to make her cousins laugh!

This morning Evie, Chan, and Gavs woke up and went into the playroom and played for an hour before I got out of bed. It was heavenly.  A little glimpse into what it will be like when Evie and Eden are 6 and 7 years old! I thought about using that time to take a shower and get ready for church before everyone else, but chose to catch some extra down time. I should have got ready.

I brought all the girls downstairs for breakfast. While Evie was eating her waffle, she fell in between the table and bench. We were all smiling at her because she looked funny sliding further underneath the table. Well, I went over to rescue her and in the midst of pulling her out, somehow her body weight leaned onto the bench, flipped it over on its side landing on my left set of toes! Oh my goodness! I don't think I have ever had such pain.

Grady was upstairs and ran down to help. I called my mom because I was starting to pass out from the pain. It's a very heavy wooden bench and my toes were no match for its weight! Grady took me to the ER, where they did x-rays. They see did not see a break, but possibly a hairline fracture on my big toe. A post-op boot was put on it and here I am on Sunday afternoon, watching the Masters, and waiting for the girls to wake up.

I don't look forward to putting weight on my toes. I think it'll be easier than I think it will be. I just don't want to do it yet!
