:)

This week has been slightly crazy to say the least.  And it's not over yet.  Here's a few things that have made my life great or at least interesting of late.

To begin with, Leah managed to fall through the entrance to the net around the trampoline and onto the cement.  This left a nice cut on the side of her head.  My parents had left on their cruise less than 48 hours before. Thus, Carrie and I got the privilege of accompanying Leah to the ER.  It was fun.  Quite the experience.  Four staples later and we're all good.  :)  We actually got to use the medical release note from our parents.  Definitely a first.  :)

The following conversation took place one day as Grant was leaving my room:
Grant: "See ya."
Bridget: "See ya."
Grant: "See ya Bridget."
Bridget: "See ya Grant."
Grant: "I love you."
Tell me he's not the most precious child on earth.  :)

Yet another Grant story:
Bridget: "Grant, how come you look so cute today?"
Grant: "Because I love you."
This kid is going to make an excellent husband.  :)

I was babysitting three little girls the other day who happen to moving to London tomorrow.  Lucky ducks.  Tangent:  Why are little kids so fascinated with stairs?  Especially when their in one's house.  These little girls were excited that their new house was going to have stairs and I also remember thinking as a little kid that having stairs in your house was super cool.  Now back to the point.  I brought two of my little sisters along to play with these little girls.  We decided to play a Toy Story Wii game (which is a great game by the way since it's super easy).  Anyway, it's comprised of a bunch of mini games in which you compete with people to see who can get the most points.  At the end of each game there is a screen that tells you who won the game.  The oldest little girl, who is 7, skipped past the score screen.  Wanting to see my score, I asked her why she skipped the screen.  She responded, "That will make someone cry."

While waiting to get staples in her head, Leah was talking up a storm.  She informed us that you can tell when she is sick because she doesn't feel like eating pizza.  Good to know.  No appetite for pizza is definitely the first way I know I'm sick.  :)

I was babysitting yet another family (can you tell I babysit too much?) and we were watching Sinbad (a DreamWorks animated movie).  The villain is this evil goddess woman.  At one part while she was being her evil self, the 5-year-old little boy said, "I wish I could call her the S-T word."  I'm pretty sure he meant the word "stupid".  Precious.  That's some good parenting right there.  :)

So obviously the majority of my time has been spent with small children lately and these occurrences is what makes it worth it.  Now on to the super good news:

My roommate from freshman year, Amelia Holt, is engaged!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Now for a bunch of pictures of us.  Yeah I should be posting ones of her and her fiancee, Seth, but I like these ones too much. :)

Fake contention I assure you.




I seriously am SO excited for Amelia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Her fiancee, Seth, is an incredibly lucky man.  

That's about it.  Have the best weekend ever.
