Today was a funny day for miss alivia. well not exactly funny to her… but funny in another way,
we were all in the pool, mom, jason, me and livi. livi was on one of the big rafts and i was standing next to it with both hands on the raft and talking on my cell phone. Livi was sitting on the raft throwing water balls off it. All of a sudden she reached out allittle too far and toppled over head first into the water on the opposite side of the raft from me. i watched this happening and just reached over and grabbed her by the leg and pulled her up.
she was scared and not happy. me and jason were cracking up but felt bad at the same time. jason was in another raft a few feet away and my mom was skimming the top of the pool for bugs and had her back to us. 2 seconds. thats all it took and the kid was under water.
she goes under water often but is still learning. but this really shook her. she was fine and within a minute we were chasing my mom around the pool.
i was no longer on my cell phone.
then livi got out of the pool and was going back and forth from the deck to the picnic table below… she comes back a few minutes later to jump in the pool again and she shows me her finger and says its burning. so i look at it and she has her first splinter. completly in the pointer finger. so i held her and mom and jason tried to get it out with pointy tweasers. no luck and one very unhappy kid.
so mom went back in the house to get better tweasers. and a paci and some chocolate. LOL. i help her and mom and jason kept her arms out and hand open while alivia screamed completly bloody murder. my sis got home at the same time and came out of the sunroom wondering what the heck was going on. LOL. she thought something horrible was happening. it was just a lil splinter.
She is one funny kid man. i love her. i keep picturing her lil face coming up from under the water with her eyes open so wide. lol.
oh yeah… and there is a frog that has been hanging out at our pool for the past week… alivia calls him her freinds and talks to him like it is a baby. ” awe, hi tiny baby froggi” LOL and pets it
i have not had the baby yet, and am still miserable.
i will let you all know when that changes. goodnight
last august.. wah wah wah wah wah.. and i was a little heavy here….
while my mother in law was here- she read us a quote from the bible… i think it was from phil……talking about how we are supposed to be thankful for ALL things, not just the things we want or need, or even think we need, but to be thankful for all things….. i need to stay focused on that.
