New Shoes, Broken Noses and Everything In Between: A Week in Review

We have made it to another Friday, dear reader(s)! And this week was...action-packed. I almost made it unscathed too...almost. More on that in a moment.

NEW SHOES.

Spring has now sprung and OG has grown out of her only pair of toddler flip-flops, so we had to find an affordable, cute & comfy pair of sandals for the little lady.  Apparently Amazon doesn't believe in offering a size 3-4 for toddlers, so it was slim pickings. The Husband and I found a pair we both liked, but the only color option that came in OG's size was "Neon Orange".  If nothing else, at least the snugglebiscuit could show off her Bengals pride in the summer months, right? So we bought them.

They weren't kidding about the "Neon" part.  It's the kind of neon that makes you wonder if your eyes will ever recover. The pictures do not do them justice.

I found an outfit to help downplay the brightness of the shoes, and she ended up looking completely edible as usual. Gah, that face! Those toes!  Nom nom.

Behold, the shoe:

I think my camera automatically added a filter so as not to permanently distort someones vision, They are still cute though!

To compliment such a blinding seizure-inducing glorious shoe, we decided to go with:

-Plaid button-up shirt (Crazy 8)

-Dark denim jeggings

-Attention grabbing bird hair clip (thanks, Ms. J!)

Yes, OG's bottle does match her outfit.  Let's pretend I planned that and it wasn't just because it was the only clean one left.

"Momma...am I stepping in molten lava, or is that really the color of my shoe?"

EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN.

Unluckily for our babysitting superhero, Ms. J, that day was spent running between the hospital and doctor's office with her own kids. #roughdayx10000 #stillnotthebrokennosepartofthestory 

But OG was quite the well-behaved lady and kept everyone entertained! For all of her efforts, OG was rewarded handsomely at the doctor's office when she found...AN ACTIVITY CUBE!

"Who is that fashionable little friend? She even likes the same book..."

Note: Ms. J was in no mood for having her retinas evaporated, so she changed OG's footwear.

And that was Wednesday.

On Thursday, OG wore a onesie with a screen-printed vampire cat created by a local artist.  I was going to take a picture after work (since our morning was rushed) but was unable to for 2 noteworthy reasons:

1) She pooped all over herself at Grandmas (we dodged THAT bullet!) and....

BROKEN NOSE.

2) OG ended up head-butting me in the face, which resulted in a bloody nose/possible fracture, and our speedy return home.

OG's soft noggin is fine.  I still have a splitting headache 24 hours later, but I will survive.  And #realtalk - I cannot confirm a break. All I know is that I touched  my nose after the incident (because, human nature...) and there was an audible click  I don't think normal noses do that. I'm also kind of a wuss when it comes to seeing my own blood, so I had half-assumed my nose had fallen off my face anyhow. #hypochondriac

Oh well. This is parenthood; time to woman-up and move on!

Now, let's send this week off on a high note, shall we?
