So... the phone rang, and elder daughter asked, " How do I get to Children's Emergency?" Apparently Mr. Gets Into Everything had taken a wee bit of a tumble (not even sure from what) and had an "owie" on his leg. X-rays showed a "toddler fracture", an apparently common injury for two year olds. We had already planned a sleepover so that his mom could get some appointments in, so he came over, owie and all! I have to say, it has slowed him down a bit. However, he doesn't complain much at all, and was a real trooper through all the hospital stuff - not even a tear.
The toys downstairs are still exciting (although I think Namah and Poppa really should spring for some more). He got what he wanted by scooting on his bum (like the olden days), rolling, and pointing.
The puppy came for a visit (sorry, I don't know how to get rid of puppy "red eye", which for puppies is "blue eye"). That was a big hit for both of them. The puppy was just as happy that the boy couldn't chase after him!
We had planned to go for special hot dogs and fries, and we did. It was a glorious September evening, so we went for a walk down to the water too. The puppy didn't get fries - he stayed in the car.
Who knew there were cartoons on CBC at 7:30 in the morning?
The living room "tent" was a big hit. All in all, it was a fun visit. We thought the baby would be the next exciting bit of news, but we were wrong! Let's hope that this is the end of this kind of excitement. For a few days at least, Mr. Gets Into Everything will be getting into a bit less.

I love the title - the big owie. That's for sure. Boy that cast looks really big in pictures! Thank you so much for your help... :)
