Jace was playing ping pong on the Kinect last Saturday, got a little too excited, spun around lost his balance and smacked his eye right on our end table. I thought for sure it would've cut it open, but luckily it didn't. It looks absolutely horrible!!!
Day it happened




DAY 2

DAY 4

"My Head"

Jace was messing around in the living room today, he lost his balance and fell backward and hit his head on the floor. He kinda cried for a bit, came over to me and I gave him a hug, then he went into the kitchen to get his Elephant Blank. While he was in there Ty and I hear. "My head.....My head.....My beautiful head!!" Ty I and busted up laughing!

FIRST SWIMMING LESSON

So today was Jace's first swimming lesson. He loves swimming, but I thought he might freak out having to go in the pool by himself. Well to my surprise he hopped right in with a huge smile on his face. They have all the kids sit on the steps while they wait for their turn. I was keeping a close eye on Jace cause it looked like he was ready to pounce off the step any second. Well sure enough, he wasn't even in the pool 3 minutes before he goes venturing out on his own and of course sinks!!! His little head was bobbing up and down out of the water, he was trying to doggy paddle but couldn't keep his head above the water. I RUN over there with Aiden on my hip and my big purse on my shoulder, I'm screaming his name, none of the instructors saw him. I get one of my legs, shoe and all, in the pool, but still couldn't reach him. I yelled, "CAN SOMEONE GET HIM!" The instructors see him by that time and grab him and set him back on his little step. My heart was pumping soo fast, I was shaking like crazy and on the verge of tears! Surprisingly he LOVED the rest of swimming lessons. He didn't want to leave when it was over and can't wait to go back tomorrow. Needless to say, I didn't take my eyes off of him the WHOLE TIME and I won't for the rest of the lessons!!! He has this little flotation device that he wears when we go swimming and he can just zip all over the place without our help. I figured he was probably going to do something like this cause he is just used to being able to go everywhere in the water. I was soo glad that I was watching him so closely!! Scared me to death!

Prayers

Saturday night I was saying prayers with Jace before bedtime. I will always say a line and he will repeat after me. I said, "Bless that I can be a good boy in Primary tomorrow." he repeats, "Bless that I will be a good boy in Primary tomorrow, but I won't"!! Little stink was right too......He WAS NOT!! UUUGGG, I don't know what else I can bribe or THREATEN this kid with!!!

Jaces Discovery

Tonight Ty was helping Jace get his pants and shoes on so he could go help him mow the lawn. While doing so Jace says, "Hey dad guess what? I have balls in my Naked. Silly huh?" Oh my heck, I about died when he told me. I guess I shouldn't be surprised......typical boy for ya!!

FINALLY...........

jace FINALLY sat by himself in Primary!!! It's amazing what a good bribe can do. He borrowed a movie from my mom last week and he was soo bad in primary that we didn't let him watch it all week long. We talked about it every day and I told him that he would have to be good in Primary and sit by himself before he could ever watch it. Well sure enough, yesterday right after sacrament meeting he walks down the hall, into the primary room, takes a seat on his chair and didn't move the WHOLE time!!! WOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!! I was so excited that I teared up a little!! It has been so hard and so frustrating. Now we'll see if we are going to have to bribe him with a movie every week, or if he will just go by himself. Either way, at least we know what works now!! Yay for Jace, it only took FIVE MONTHS!!!
