Well, it's February and I haven't blogged since the end of November - wow!

We survived Christmas and then actually had 2 days of real snow in Atlanta - it had been FOUR years!

Then we had 2 exciting trips to the ER -- one for me (concussion) and one for Sam (stitches).

I have photos of these exciting events, but I haven't gotten them uploaed yet. So a quick story will have to do.

On a Wednesday afternoon in early January, the UPS guy brought me 3 new geography puzzles. I took a peek and then proceeded to take them to put on the school book shelves in the dining room. As I made my way in there, I tried to step over the baby gate. I caught my toe on the top and went tumbling down. I tried to turn to my side to cushion the fall and not hit my face, but the next thing I knew I was waking up and it was all dark. Yep, knocked myself out! After noticing some slurring of my words, Kurt dropped me at the ER and drove around for 2 hours (with all 7 kids in the car) so I could get a CT scan in peace.

And then poor Sam -- 26 months now -- tipped his entire high chair over and hit Jac's chair corner with his FACE. A nice slice on the forehead had to be stitched up and now he and Josh have matching 3mm scars.
