it's Wednesday

We had a lovely visit with G and M. Miss them already. Time with good friends goes so fast. sigh. Lots of laughs, good talks, fun times...and we put G to work and changed a bunch of our light fixtures. Bye bye flourescent killers in the playroom! we are so thankful for a friend with electrical abilities.

After they left yesterday, I took Ruby and headed out to the town's wellness fair. I had a total light bulb moment there, while talking to one of the local health nurses. I was sharing about our issues with Ruby and poop, or lack thereof. She dropped a potential cause in my lap that just blew me away. How I didn't think of this earlier....well, I just feel like the puzzle pieces fell into place. I'll update after we get her in for some testing next week. But, if *this* is it...wow.

Took Isaac to skating tonight. Did not go well. He's getting a touch more confidence on the ice, but he took two big face-first falls. The first one involved smacking his face on the ice - wish we had a bigger helmet. I sat with him on the ice for a few minutes - my rear end is still cold! The second one, well, let's just say bleeding was going on. Both his nose and his mouth. He bit the inside of his lip. It was ugly. I was sad and really ticked that the coaches didn't really notice or seem to care. I picked him up and took him off the ice, while he was sobbing. Poor little guy. I'm hoping it doesn't bruise too badly though.

I'm off to bed now. I'm cold, and tired, and we have a playdate in the morning! woo hoo!
