the blood incident
Several weeks ago Abby cut her finger pretty bad. She did not have much experience with blood and simply said "mom, red hurts!" At first I had no idea what she was talking about but then I quickly figured it out. I took charge and had to wrap her finger with paper towels and medical tape. It took a few days for the wound to close up, but it was healed in about a week. However, anytime the band-aid would get old and fall off, she would shriek and yell until you could get another on her finger.
The incident also told us that our oldest son is also a bit squeamish (like his father) towards blood.
The culprit, a pencil sharpener that Jamie got for his birthday for carpenter pencils:
Visiting the big boat
Jamie, dad and grandpa took the sailboat to Bremerton and toured the Turner Joy.
Gasworks picnic
After my last OB appointment, we got Dick's burgers and took the kids to see Gasworks park, and reminisced about our old times in Wallingford.
Going out
Just before the baby came, I took Jamie to Barnes and Noble for a little one-on-one time. We got dinner at Starbucks Cafe and then we hung out in the bookstore for awhile. Meanwhile, Chad took Abby to Starbucks downtown and they got hot cocoa together.

Looks like lots of fun. Still trying to figure out why she wanted to sharpen her finger. Is the band aid still on it?
All was a good time. And yes, the band aid is still on. I asked her last night if we should take it off and she said no...
