I promised the kids that we would have a sleep over with our friends when we got back from California. We had one with their cousins before we left. School is quickly approaching, so I called and asked them about tonight. First, we met them and their cousins at the Lake House (water park). It is always a good idea to get kids worn out before a sleep over.
When we got back, I started running baths for them. Camden (7 year old) went into Lexi & Jordan's bath tub. I put Savannah (5 year old) in my bath tub and Lexi in my glass shower, which is right next to the tub. I left Avery in that bathroom with them and went down to start dinner. It was only a few minutes before I heard screaming. I ran upstairs to find Lexi standing at the top of the stairs covered in blood and completely naked. There were drips of blood all down the hallway. I told her to get back in my bathroom, so I could see what the problem was. It was easy to see it was coming from her mouth. I started washing it and noticed she just had a split lip. Poor Avery was shaking with fear. She made sure to tell me that her mom gets freaked out by these sort of things. I love that her my gets excited about everything, good and bad. I happen to stay very calm in these situations, which I probably got from my mom. My brothers were always getting injured.
I took a picture of Lexi once she was cleaned up. Several of the kids wanted to join, so I took pictures of them too. Savannah must have liked Lexi's up the nose pose, because she kept doing it. I even got 2 of the neighbor kids in since they showed up as we were taking shots. The only one left out was Jordan. He was upstairs.
