So......in the last week........
Chris broke his hand. The xrays look gross. His thumb is like free floating. He is supposed to have surgery tomorrow to get pins put in it. I'm not sure about it though because they still haven't called us to confirm the time. I wondering if there is a scheduling error. I'm going to be really upset if it didn't get scheduled correctly. Tomorrow is really the only time we can squeeze it in. Besides things like that are supposed to be done pretty quickly. I don't want it to heal incorrectly and have to break it again. Yuck. It's just incredible timing. We are closing on the house on Tuesday and moving all next week. We were considering hiring movers already and that really pushed us over the edge. He'll be pretty useless at picking anything up and I certainly can't do it. We don't really have any friends anymore so I can't count on them to move all my stuff. I really don't want to have to beg all the Sanders to break their backs carrying my furniture. Luckily one of the guys that works for Chris has a grandma that owns a moving company. It's always nice to know someone. We have the movers scheduled for next friday for 4 hours. They are 90 bucks an hour so I really hope they move quickly!
Macy is still not adjusting to school very well. I was really hoping she would like it since she has become so outgoing over the summer. She's not nearly as shy as she used to be. She has always been sooo super shy that it's impossible around strangers. Around her bday she started talking to random strangers in the store and telling the check out people her whole life story. I really thought she'd do better. What I learned was that if you remove Caden from the picture and she has to stand completely on her own she reverts back to that super shy little girl. She got her feelings hurt by some kids in her class the first few days of school and hasn't quite recovered. It takes her a long time to get over it when she gets hurt. She's such a sensitive girl. It is so hard to stand back and let her learn her social lessons on her own. There was one little boy (who happens to be Caden's best friend) who kept calling her names and picking on her. He's in Pre-K. I told Caden that he is to stick up for his sister whether it's his friend or not! Family takes care of each other! Well yesterday they came home and told me that Evan said he wants to marry Macy. Well no wonder he was picking on her! I didn't even think about him liking her. It makes sense now that I realize what's going on. I forgot about silly little boys. Yesterday Macy said (with her hands on her little hips), "I am not marrying Evan! I like Luke! Luke is my boyfriend and I am going to marry HIM!" I asked her when she was getting married and she said when she was 5. Luke is the little boy that was the ring bearer in Becky's wedding and walked down the aisle with her. So that's that! I will be sending out the wedding invitations soon. LOL.
Caden has requested that we now call him Cade. So FYI. We will see how long it lasts. That's all for now. I love you guys!
How did Chris break his hand?? That is certainly not good timing!
ReplyDeleteThe boy down the street has always been horribly mean to Taylor since they were in first grade. He even slapped her in the face once. Chance has had to get on to him in a big way over the years. I have always told her it was because he liked her. She always has said no he just hates her. Well now that they started high school this year...guess who's been asking her out. Yea....I totally pegged it. She is totally grossed out by it. I feel accomplished in my mommy moment! LOL
