FYI: Save money on Botox, just drop a crockpot lid on your mouth

With so much stuff going on at our house, our house and looked so crazy messy. So I have been trying to wake up early and clean, it hasn't been working but oh well. So I woke up yesterday morning and our home was starting to stink like it needed to be deep cleaned so I started washing dishes. I washed our crockpot bowl and I went to put it up. As I was putting it back on the shelf the lid fell and hit me in the mouth. It hurt so bad. I just put it back up and I made sure all my teeth were still there and I went and laid back in bed until I had to wake everybody else up. Here are some pictures. Note I have no makeup on so I am only showing my lips. I am sorry. Also I should mention this is the day after it happened. So feel bad for me.

Update

Last night I realized I hadn't checked to see if my insurance will cover Gunnar's MRI. I called this morning and the dr sent over the preauthorization form but then we found out that while we are approved for Gunnar to have this done we can't do it at the hospital that we have been going to all along. Who knows why but now since the other hospital in the area doesn't do child MRI's since he needs to be sedated so he now he is going to have to go to Primary Childrens but can't get in until Sept 2. So then the whole time he is going to have to be hurting until we can figure this out. The dr's want to try more x-rays next week because they are worried about him. We are going to try another hospital for the x-rays to see if it helps. Things are getting more painful for Gunnar. Last night he woke up crying because his leg hurt and crawling which is how he was getting around has pretty much stopped and sitting on his legs hurts more now and we have to get his toys for him now. I can't get him to stand up at all now.
On good news since I have other kids Harley starts kindergarten on Tuesday we are still waiting for the class assignment but I have been getting Gunnar's prescription this afternoon and a toy to hopefully help him sit on the couch all day. Novalee got 100% on her spelling test today and she was really nervous about it. I love my kids.

Gunnar hurt again!

Well just so some of you who were wondering what happened with Gunnar (If you read Bonny's blog) On Monday night the kids were playing the their room while I was cleaning the house. I heard Gunnar crying and Novalee's first words were, "I didn't do it!" I guess he was climbing up the side of the bunk bed and fell. Novalee said he just fell off of his bed but we got the whole story later. He seemed fine that night the usual, getting in trouble for jumping on the couches. The next morning he woke up and tried walking but he was crying and saying he couldn't walk. I just thought he was sore from his fall. All that day he was crawling but our house was messy (as usual) and I thought he was just playing. He was fussy because the girls were playing but he couldn't get to them to play with them because he couldn't stand up so I went and got him and rocked him to sleep. He slept until I had to get Jason and I had to carry him into the van since he was so tired. Then after I picked up Jason we got back in the house and Gunnar wasn't walking. We tried to get him to walk and it was not a normal walk. He only would walk for a little bit and then cry and fall down. I called the dr. (around 4) and they told me to bring him in to the hospital to do x-rays then to their office the first thing the next morning. I didn't want to have to make 2 trips to Orem for something that I didn't think was serious so I told them I would just take him to the hospital and go from there. Luckily Bonny was there to go with me and she was nice enough to stay with me until Gunnar was done. His walk is really sad. The dr at the ER thinks its something with his hip. The x-rays there weren't very clear so Gunnar had to go back today for more. They are clear and aren't showing any reasons for him to not walk. The Dr saw him walking today and how Gunnar cried for each of the 2 steps he took and so now our next step is an MRI on Friday morning. They are going to have to sedate him since it is a 30 minute thing and the sedation part is going to make us stay there for most of the morning. After the MRI we are going to see the results and still if nothing is showing and he still can't walk without pain then he is going to have to see an orthopedic specialist (I think that is who he has to see) the Dr said that kids this age don't fake this kind of thing like I thought at first. Anyways that is it for tonight on how I neglect my kids.

Response from Dr.

Hi Katrina ,Dr Berry had to leave for the day. Kelly said that if he is acting normal and not vomitting the bump will go away with time. If you notice a change in his behavior he needs to come in and be seen.
I think Erika might be on to something, my doctor had to "leave" for the day? Hmmm.

I had to steal these from Kyla

This is my cousin Scott and his new wife Shaila aren't these so cute!

Real email I sent to my Dr.

Thanks for all 5 of you who remember me. I know how important I am. Anyways my life has actually been really busy! Amazing huh. So when I have a chance I have been reading "Roots" or sleeping neither which works for a long time when Jason wakes me up to tell me something pointless that he should be able to handle like today I was trying to sleep and he was watching Star Trek which is constantly on for him lately, and he woke me up to tell me that Emily's mom was coming to pick her up in 15 minutes. Why couldn't he get her in her mom's car?? Hmmm. I think its called DORK DISEASE!
Well tonight I noticed that Gunnar had a bump on his head from last week where according to him, Harley and Gunnar were jumping on the couch (I was gone) and he fell and no one did it. The bump was there last week and today I was getting him to sleep (I still like to cuddle him to sleep sometimes since he is my "bigger baby" (his words for big boy) ) and I noticed the bump. I looked online and couldn't really find anything so I went to my doctors website and emailed him. Its a great thing they have on their site. This is what I wrote
Since I am a slacker parent it seems, I just noticed that Gunnar has a bump on his head where he fell last week (I think jumping on the couch but none of the girls seem to know what happened) I noticed the bump then but today I was putting him to bed and I noticed that the bump was still there. It doesn't hurt him but is he going to be a mini-unicorn for the rest of his life and need severe facial forehead sugery or is it ok? Thanks
