Oh What a Sunday!

Well where to begin one of the worst Sunday's ever? The day started normally yet it all went downhill from there. While at church Abby was her typical self, being a busy little bee. Then add on top of that fits and her lovely screams it was an all out blast. Thus, I think of all three hours of church I maybe got 20 minutes out of it. Thus, I was pretty frustrated and near reaching my limit on emotions and frustration. Not that my well isn't already dry when it comes to that. It doesn't take much to make me tear up these days. Not to mention I also cry when I am frustrated lucky me! Nonetheless, I was roaming the halls with Abby and she tripped and fell. Pretty typical, and she was crying so I picked her up to try and console her. After about two minutes, she stopped crying and I pulled her back to look at her and low and behold her whole face was bloody. I was like "what the heck". So I took her into the bathroom to try and discover the source and apparently she had bit her tongue in the fall and it was bleeding like a stuck pig. Poor little thing had teeth marks in her tongue. I then looked at myself in the mirror and saw that my entire shoulder was completely red, covered in blood and soaked through my under clothing as well. So it was time to leave church, I headed back to class for my bag and we hit the road. I was at my wits end at this point but it only got better. Aside being emotionally drained certain situations occurred that even further depleted how I was feeling. So I got home and put Abby down for a nap and changed my clothes. I was just sitting there for a bit and noticed blood on the shorts I had just put on. I was like "what the heck" So I looked under where the blood was and apparently I had scratched my leg somehow and there was blood all over my thigh and soaked through my shorts. Lovely....THEN I had asked my dad and Cindy to listen for Abby while I was on the phone and about 20 minutes later my dad comes out and is very ummmm agitated and says "you need to get upstairs now! Abby is stuck in her crib". So I run upstairs and sure enough her leg is lodged in between the rails. Her leg had welts and was all red and looking a bit swollen. I figured if my dad and Cindy couldn't get her out I probably couldn't either so...my dad and I proceeded to break the rail in order to get her leg out. Thus, at this point Abby is having a rough day as well. So shes out and I am like "what the HECK?". But no worries it still got better. I was playing with Abby on the floor and there is a toy hammer that she likes to tote around with her which she happened to have in her hand. So she sat on my lap all cute and innocent and BAM! she whacks me in the face and now I have a wonderful lump on my eyebrow! I knew the day won for one of the worst in the books. Lets just say that my mood of the day was not a good one and I hope the week is better.

Oh Lacey, that sounds like a horrible day! I'm so sorry. Sundays are rough enough for me, I can imagine how they must be with little Abby. If Hannah is good in nursery next week again, I'll help you out.

I hope your week is better too!

Oh Lacey, I just want to give you a great big hug :) I wish we lived closer and could spend more time together. If it makes you feel any better, I don't know why I go to church either :) Sometimes it feels like you need that uplift but you can't get it! It's the age I believe :) My mom just watches me during sacrament meeting and laughs. Apparently she enjoys watching me struggle with my one kid as opposed to her eight :) So, what are you doing with your crib? Is it permanently broken?

Oh, poor Lacey! Fortunately, this day will be a memory you will laugh at one day. Don't worry, you are not alone, we all have those crazy days.

Take care of yourself Lace... and don't "run" yourself to death:(....OK.. Kiss my little Abby under her drooly little chin and kiss her little tongue too!

There are often sundays, sitting in Sacrament mtg, trying to be spiritually fed, where my kids aren't behaving and I just want to burst into tears and leave! I vote for you being able to "slide" Abby into nursery a little early! No one will notice...I promise I won't tell!!

Megan and Keli'i said...
