Monday Morning Recap
Well, Nick is back from Bermuda and his parents are back in Montreal. Life is back to normal for a few days, until we leave for our vacation on Thursday. We can't wait!
Nick apparently had a great time, judging by the pictures, the sunburn and the few minutes we were able to spend together this morning. He arrived home around 5:20 a.m. so Darcy and I weren't waiting for him at the door, to say the least! We'll get all the details tonight at supper. We did have time to get presents though, and Darcy even had enough time to break one of hers already. Nick bought her a really cute little dolphin and turtle beaded necklace and bracelet set. She loved it. The bracelet has already fallen apart though. We think we've got most, if not all of the beads and we should be able to fix it. She was broken-hearted over breaking it, so I really hope we can.
She had a rough day on Saturday. It started with falling out of bed. Grandmaman went to get her out of bed and Darcy, in her excitement, managed to take a tumble while getting out. She recovered pretty quickly. Over the course of the day she got new play sandals which she then wore to the mall to get her haircut. While walking back through the mall she fell again. She banged up her mouth pretty well. There's a mark on the outside of her lip and her gum was bleeding. I thought there might be damage to the tooth, but it's not loose and there's no discolouration. She managed to eat corn on the cob that night at supper without flinching, so I think she's OK. Grandmaman and Papa had just bought popsicles, so we opened one of those to help fight off any swelling and to soothe her a little. Seemed to work like a charm.
She also went for a little walk with Grandmaman before supper on Saturday night. She fell again and scraped up her knee. She didn't cry over that one, but needed a bandaid when she got home. So she's still got the mark on her lip and the scraped up knee. Did I mention we've got her 3-year old portraits booked for tomorrow night? At least she'll look like a normal, active 3-year old. I hope her dress is long enough to cover the knee. I think the mouth will be OK.
We have a Vietnamese congregation that meets in our church on Sunday afternoons. Yesterday they had a lunch that they wanted to share with members of our congregation too. Yummy! I had a noodle dish that was absolutely amazing. I realized afterwards that I hadn't found out the name of the dish, so if I'm ever given the chance to eat it again I won't know how to identifiy it. Anyway, it was amazing. Darcy wasn't a fan of the noodles.
That's about it for now.

Hope the bumps and falls are over!
Great pictures Mr. & Mrs. T!
I love the hamburger picture!
For future reference Sue, if you have any doubts about whether Darcy's teeth were invovled, go to the dentist! I don't know how it is in Canada, but here, if you have it checked out when it happens, even if there's nothing visibly wrong, dental insurance will cover whatever happens later as a result of the injury. Trust me, I know!
