A Day in the Life

The kids were so busy this morning (meaning they were in to EVERYTHING) that I needed to get out of the house and get a sanity break.  I loaded the kids up and headed out the the airport to visit my mom and dad.  Of course the kids loved being able to get out and run... and seeing grandma and grandpa might have been a big bonus too!  Ben climbed on every tractor available, played with the tape measure every time it was within reach and even took a turn standing in one of the airplanes!  Emma was grandma's little shadow.  Everywhere she went, Emma went.  It was cute to watch. 

Just as we were getting ready to head out, Lennard called and asked if we wanted to come see what he was doing at work.  We headed down and, of course, before we got there, Ben fell asleep!  Emma thoroughly enjoyed her one-on-one time with daddy!  She got to go in the bucket with him and even visit with 'Uncle Jared' (one of the guys in the dept).


Lennard had rugby practice this afternoon (as usual).  The kids and I went up to the soccer park (next to where they were practicing) and played on the playground until he was done. 



As we were waiting for him to finish up, I noticed that he was limping.  I asked him what he'd done now, and he said that a girl was trying to tackle him and got her chin slammed on the top of his foot.  She was fine, but his foot hurt really bad.  We headed to the high school so that we could go vote, got some dinner at home and then Lennard went to the ER to get his foot checked out.  Thankfully, he got right in without a long wait.  There was nothing broken in his foot, but the doctor figures that he has a soft tissue injury (the bone is bruised).  Not good!  Of course it's a week that he can't take work off and put his foot up to rest, so it should be interesting.
