My Lucky Life

Note to readers** in no way in this post a complaint, more I have to write so that I can laugh about all the random funny injuries our family has sustained in the last two months.

Feb 2009: Jared tears his Achilles tendon . He was playing basketball at work, and went to sprint and tore his tendon. He had to have surgery the next day to repair the injury. Outcome: In a cast for two month, now in a walking boot, a swollen foot every night, nasty scar, and out of work on light duty until at least July.

April 2009: Jen falls while carry Aiden. I tripped over Matthew and to avoid landing on Aiden, I twist my body to take the fall, and land on my shoulder, dislocating it. End up spending 7 hours in the ER, and now addicted to Loritab. (Not really) Outcome: Shoulder aches everyday, and might possibly have to have surgery to repair the tear to my cartilage, and if I don 't have surgery there is an 80% chance I will re dislocate the shoulder at some point.

April 2009: Carma (jared's mom) breaks her arm. She is my babysitter three days a week while Jared is out on light duty due to his injury. She goes to Phoenix for the weekend, gets hit by a grandson riding a bike and falls and breaks her arm. Outcome: No sitter for me

April 2009: Kathy (my mom) trips and sprains her ankle. My mom went to Prom on Saturday, trips on her way to the door, and sprains her ankle. Outcome: Swollen ankle and can't walk.

So, anyone close to use... you might want to stay clear from us. We got some bad luck or we are seriously the most clumsy family ever.

Loves!

The things they say... Part II

One of my first blog postings was on some of the funny things the boys have said lately. Everyday they crack me up with something they say that is so random or just out there. I try to write them down, but figure maybe I should blog them too.

Matt and I went to Chicago over the weekend (will post that later) Matt was talking to my friend Natalie and was telling her a story. After the story was over, she told him how smart he was, and he said, " I know I am smart, I have the best remembery."


Matt and Zach are really into playing "mommy and daddy" with their toys. They will get cars, or animals and sit at the table and play. Today they were playing "Jared and honey" (mommy and daddy) Here is how the conversation went. They were playing with a snake and lizard.

Zach: "Jared, come over here, I miss you"
Matt: "Honey, I am coming, I am walking slow because I have a baby in my tummy"

Me: "Matt, how did your honey get a baby in her tummy?"
Matt: " Duh, mom. She went to a wedding, and that is how you get babies in your tummy."

Oh, if they only knew!
