Because Robby was going to be gone the evening (Friday) of my Birthday (He "had" to go to a Jazz game with clients), we went out on Thursday night. We went to dinner at La Casita in Springville. It was quite yummy Mexican food. Then we came home for a few minutes so I could nurse and put Katelyn down for the night. Then we went out for more!! We went to "Color Me Mine" and had a blast creating fun dishes. I made a birthday plate (to use on future birthdays) and Robby made a fun cereal bowl. Then we went to "Ike's Ice Cream" and got shakes! They were delicious! Thanks so much Ilene for babysitting.
That evening, just before bedtime, Timothy cut his toe. There was a big flap of skin and I was not sure the extent of the medical care needed. So with Timothy screaming in the background while I was trying to rinse/clean the wound, I called my big brother Thomas, who happens to be in medical school to become a foot doctor, to see what I should do. After trying to get a good picture sent to him and chatting about it for a while, we decided that just trying to clean it as best I could and bandaging it, then giving him some meds, we should be good. I was so glad I didn't have to take him to afterhours or ER.
(Because I know you all want to see it) I know it doesn't look bad, but I was mostly worried because of the gray coloring under the skin... I didn't know if it was super dirty, or if it was just the wound...
Robby came home that night to quite the story... which resulted in quite the apology for being gone. He also brought a most delicious candy apple. YUM!
The next day, we celebrated as a family. I had bought some amazing carrot cupcakes from Costco (on sale!) and we put candles in them and sang! Then we went to the "beach" and Robby fished with the boys while I chilled on the sand with baby girl. It was a wonderful relaxing day spent with the people I love most in this world. (I'm sure we did much more, but since I took so long to document, I don't remember what else we did.)
Happy Birthday to YOU!
