ER Trip #4

I think we are ER trip #4. Chris and I counted them up and we think we got them all.

Meggie swallowed a paperclip. We called our pediatrician and were sent to the ER because she needed an x-ray to confirm the clippy went into her stomach and not her lungs.

Here is Meggie in the triage room.

And, giving me the sad, "Sorry Mama" face.

Hanging out with Daddy while we were waiting for the x-ray.

Enjoying all of the attention!

Being sweet with Daddy.

The clippy came out this morning. So, we are in the clear. Note to self: no more playing with paperclips!

We are very fortunate to be within five miles of the 3rd ranked Children's hospital in the country. At least we know our kiddos will always be very well cared for!

Hilton Head- Day 3

Here are some cute pictures of Meggie from Day 3.

Look at those teeth!!

Meggie, stealing my cell phone and lens cap at the same time.

Smiles! How cute is my baby??

Enjoying the wind on the beach, it was really windy but nice and warm.

Ellie giving Meggie toes kisses!

The very pretty beach!

Hilton Head- Day 1

The little family headed down to Hilton Head Island for our first beach vacation!

Here the girls are in the car. Snuggled in and ready for the drive!

The umbrellas on the beach. We rented one of those umbrella/chair combos where Meggie and I spent quite a bit of time.

On the first day Chris spent 10 hours (no joke!) digging a big hole and building a sand castle. Ellie liked to "help" but I think she destroyed more than she built.

Ellie hard at work, carrying a bucket full of something (maybe water?).

Or, Maybe sand?

This was right after she destroyed some of the retaining walls...I thought it was pretty funny...

Our brown little beach bum

Chris putting the finishing touches on the castle before high tide

The "Portcullis," I had no idea what a portcullis was, at least I learned something on vacation!

Ellie helping out with one more bucket of water for the moat.
