This Saturday has been horrible, no good, awful, and to top it off Garrett is out of town. I will say that I am thankful my pressure cooker or water heater didn't explode in my face as it did my two good friends but it has been "one of those days."
Everything seemed to being going smoothly until 10:30am while I was in the middle of my first ballet class of the day. Benton pulled down my barre, out of the wall, and onto his legs. The barres are made out of straight metal and are NOT light. I am surprised it didn't make a hole in my wood floor. He was pinned down with the barre on top of both legs. I rushed him inside, gave him some Tylenol, put on his favorite movie and went back to finish class #1.
Right as class #2 was about to begin we noticed one of the mom's had a flat tire and was trying to get home. With no men in sight we tried to remedy the problem ourselves with FIX-A-FLAT and a air compressor from another friend. Just then the plumber showed up to fix our master bath. I had to show him what to do then check on Benton and run back to start class#2.
As class #3 was about to begin I made a quick check-up on Benton and the girls inside the house then headed back out to my studio upon noticing our two ponies untied and running out into the street. Once again, NO men in sight to help so I had to chase down the ponies and lead them back into the yard. I had no rope so I couldn't tie them up and once I let go they just ran away again. I then got a phone call from Garrett checking up on us, handed him over to the plumber and went back to finish class #3.
Once I had finished all 3 classes I was done for the week and then proceeded to load up the kids to take Benton to the hospital. I dropped the two girls off at friends' houses, pick up my mother-in-law and we headed for town. Thankfully Benton did not fracture his legs but he cannot walk or put any pressure on them for a few days. So, without a husband for another 24 hours I will have two babies to carry around.
When it rains...its pours...I am just glad there was no permanent damage. The horses are back in the yard, Benton doesn't need a cast, the bathroom will just have to wait, and our mom with the flat tire made it home safely (I hope).

December Bliss
Benton at the ward party.
Tori in her school Christmas Program. She was an angel and had a beautiful line to deliver.
This time of year can really take a lot of energy. We've been up late every night and out the door early every morning, so naps are a MUST. My two babies!
My kids have been so great with "Baby Ada". It helps me get things done when the girls hold Adalyn. This was a sweet moment of the baby asleep on Alex's chest. Moments like these make me appreciate being a mom.
Merry Christmas!
