the herd grows

I love the smell of fall, the air is thick with it tonight.  We had to drive our cars to the playground parking lot because our streets are being paved tomorrow, and the next day.  Sort of annoying but we'll survivie. 

Lu stayed home from school today.  Her little foot was hurting her quite a bit.  We went to the library and she got a movie and some books, then we went to look for a new elephant for her herd, a whispered  bribe reward for compliance last night.  Compliance being defined as what I am not sure since a 50lb girl almost out wrested 500lbs of adults laying on her and definitely out screamed us...none the less we were sad that she was hurt and were distracting her and ourselves and another elephant is always welcome.

When we got home she fell asleep on the couch, which is evidence of just how bad she felt. 

Tonight E had a soccer clinic, and H had a lot of homework and I baked a cake that was not a home run and despite it's appley carmel title was not that good. 


and nothing says fall like football!  The Y lost but J and co. still had fun.

    Poor girlie!- We bribe for stitches too. When my firstborn was 7- a big dog bit his right cheek open. It was a horrible experience for all involved- and he had to have his face stiched back together. He earned a star wars light saber. (really- he could have earned far more- he was that awesome! ) Hate when little ones have to have such pain- hope she heals up quickly-
