Bloody Nose

Last night, Chay got brave and decided to stand on one of his toys. Before you could do anything about it, he fell off the toy. He landed awkwardly enough to give himself a bloody nose. Now this wasn't his first bloody nose and normally these things aren't newsworthy. But this time, it was quite the gusher! He had blood streaming down his face at a nice rate. Of course, he was crying the whole time. We raced into the bathroom and started to use a cold, wet washcloth to clean up his face. Standing at the sink, he looked up and saw himself in the mirror, face all covered in blood. He was quite startled at the sight! I think he didn't quite know what to think of what he was seeing. After the bleeding had stopped and he was cleaned up, he looked like the fight had been knocked out of him. He normally throws quite a fuss when he gets out of the bath or has to get his pajamas on, but last night, one hour after the incident, he made no fuss whatsoever.

Chay has become much more of a talker over the last few weeks. He will now repeat many words you ask him to say. The other night, we were going over a few such words and he repeated every one of them. Shortly after that, Chay was doing something he was not supposed to be doing so I said "stop it". Chay turned to me and said "stop it" and then proceeded on his way. Apparently in Chay's mind, we were still playing the game.

Tyler's BDay

Last weekend, we attended Tyler's birthday party in Grand Forks. Everyone had a good time and Chay loved playing on the castle in the park!

Dr Visit

Today, we had a checkup with the doctor to see how the twins are doing. We had a quick ultrasound and we could see both of them moving around quite nicely. I think they were already starting to pick on each other a bit! Mother is doing well.
