Biking and Another ER Visit

On Wednesday night, August 6, 2012, Lili finally took off and rode her bike all by herself, no training wheels or parents attached. Yay, Lili Jo!!!

Friday, August 10, 2012 -       .

At 9:30am Lili fell off of her bike and split open her chin. So, back to Methodist ER we went. Lili was not at all happy that she might have to have more stitches (Apparently the memory from the last round didn't fade over the past 6 weeks.)

On the way we called Ma-maw Kim, Ma-maw Sheila, and Papa Bill and they all three met us back at the ER. The nurses took her vitals and cleaned out the wound.

Then the doctor came in and checked things out. He really wanted to do stitches, but upon seeing how upset she was he agreed to try gluing it to see if it would work. So, the nurses then put the numbing stuff on and then taped it down really good. We waited for about an hour before the doctor finally came back in.

While she was waiting she (and Monkey and "B") watched a little Phineas and Ferb and played games on Ma-maw's I-Pad. Before the doctor came back into the room, Lili went outside of the room to sit on Papa Bill's lap. She was touching her chin and grinning.

Lili - "Look Papa, I can't feel my chin! ... ... Go ahead, touch it, you can't feel it!"

Papa - "I can feel it, you just can't feel it."

Lili - "No, really, you can't feel it at all!"

Then the Dr came back in and glued the wound shut. He told her she couldn't move or talk for five minutes and if the glue held he'd let her go home without stitches...I think it was pure torture for her, but she didn't move or talk and the glue held, so she was free to go.

Today, while Lili was talking with Daddy she said something to him and he tickled her.

Lili - "You have to stop or you will smile my thing open!"

Cooking Mama...

On the way to church, the girls were playing on their new DS's and Lili, who was playing Cooking Mama tells me, "Mom, I'm making cake pops... ...no, really...in real life on my DS."

Later that same day while at Steak n' Shake with Mamaw Kim and Papa Bill...they wanted to play the toy grabber/claw game. Papa told them that they couldn't do it if they were going to cry when they didn't win anything (like they normally do). Lili said "I won't cry...but my eyes might get a little watery."

Calling all Tooth Fairies...

it's time for another visit to the Robertson home!

This morning, around 8:30am, Lili lost her first tooth, the bottom front tooth on her right. She was very excited.

And now for a Lili-ism (kinda):

After school, she told me that she wanted to write a note to the Tooth Fairy asking her to bring a gift instead of money. I explained to her that the Tooth Fairy only brings money, she's not like Santa or the Easter Bunny. Oh my goodness, you would have thought I told her that there was no Tooth Fairy, Santa, or Easter Bunny...she cried for like 10-15 minutes!

Daddy...want me to tell you a story?

Tonight, Lili hopped up on the couch and sat down by Daddy.
She looked at him and asked, "Daddy, do you want me to tell you a story?"

Daddy replied, "Sure, tell me a story."

Lili said, "Once up one a time there was me..."

Daddy looked at Lili, waiting for the rest of the story.

Lili stated, "That's the end of it."

Those are dirty hot dogs!

Tonight we had Johnsonville Brats and Mac & Cheese for dinner.

While I was making the Mac & Cheese, Daddy was cooking the brats on the grill. Daddy brought in the brats from the grill and set them on the table, to which Lili promptly made note, "Those are dirty hot dogs!".

Daddy and I laughed.

Then Bella corrected Lili and said, "Those aren't hot dogs" and Daddy agreed with Bella and said, "You're right, those aren't hot dogs, they're brats."

Bella replied, "I know, I'm too smart!"

Seriously, where do they learn this stuff?
