It's been quite the week..

Brielle had a run in with the concrete..she fell off her bike and took a really bad fall..She had been doing so good riding with out training wheels..I thought maybe then she wouldnt want to get back on it for a long time but she was ready to ride her bike the next day..Now if she can get the brakes figured out she will be all set..she tends to drag her feet to try to stop herself then just ends up jumping off and then all u see is her bike trailing off and eventually falling over..or she will pedal faster thinking she is braking and crash..
Wednesday was a pretty eventful day for us too:)) I woke up thinking whew i dont have therapy early this morning thats pretty nice for a change bc usually its at 815 and we have to leave a half an hour early to get there bc that is how long it takes us to get there..so its 815 and Destiny says so we dont have thereapy today or what mom..i told her "no not today..and then she has to ruin my bubble bc she tells me well what about the new therapist..we arent seeing her today either..WHAT??? (i guess it sometimes pays to have kids listen to your conversations all the time) oh yeah and we have to be there at nine so that means we have to be out the house by 830 thats in 15 minutes.. and we are all in our pjs bc we just woke up..Lovely!!! SO we are all running around the house with our heads cut off and we get in the van without any breakfast but the kids are all excited bc they get to go to mcdonalds for breakfast..well mcdonalds had a huge line and we had to go to burger king..(which i hate) but then the kids had to have french toast sticks of course and of course they didnt have any ready so im stuck waiting forever for them..and thats not even all..the icing on the cake..well im almost at therapy and just getting of the exit and there was an suv in front of me and it let off there brakes so i thought they were going and i turn my head to look to see if i could go and CRASH!!!! Yeap I hit the Car...they obviously decided to brake instead of go..urrrghhhh!!!! So luckily i didnt do any damage to there car and i took a nice triangle out of the front of my car i think the worst of it was Brielle screaming bc she got scared and her food went flying everywhere so she was upset that she didnt get to eat her food..so we get to thereapy 10 minutes late..nice way to make a first impression on a new therapist huh?? (Avery got a new SPeech therapist bc the other one got promoted to a different level so im a little nervous to see how it is going to go) we will see:))

Now for Avery well of course there is something going on with her too:P She has ANOTHER ingrown toenail!! This time its her pinky one..can someone please tell me why she is gettting this all the time..i guess not all the time but this is the second time..i know its not how i cut her toenails bc i dont cut them hardly ever bc they dont ever grow..im not sure how this one is going to turn out it just started getting red and puffy last night and then she couldnt sleep in the middle of the night i think bc she was in pain..today it was getting bigger and a little black and blue so i tried to lift her toenail up a little bit but not sure if it helped i guess will have to wait and see how it is after she wakes up from her nap..well that pretty much wraps up a week at the West house!!! I hope you all have had a better week:P






Check out her left eye (if looking at her ) can u see how its puffy above her eye around her eyebrow..it got like that almost instantly...



That night it moved down and when she woke up her whole eye was puffy and not on her eyebrow anymore..strange i thought!!


The swelling has finally come down a little bit so she can open it most of the way now

It took Spencer awhile to learn how to use his brakes too. He'd just jump off when he wanted to stop.:) Poor Brielle, looks painful! Must just be the way the toenail grows, Greg had surgery on his when he was young..

Wow!! That looks terrible:(

Poor Brielle! You are just going to have to do some fancy make-up to get her other eye to match!!! Someone said that maybe Avery's tonenails are growing into her toes and not up. Poor girl, i know how painful they are.

Try cutting a v in the middle of her toenail so that her nails will grow to fill in the v instead of under her skin
