A Poor Guy!

Today we spent the day at Andi's house.
Usually, we end up having to leave Andi's once Saxon has every single one of her kids, plus Bryn, in tears.
Today was an off-day...

First, Saxon had some kind of a run-in with the toy lawn mower. He walked away with a dent in his cheek that lead to this bruise under his right eye.
Later, he met up with the wrong end of a stick and got this under his left eye.
Right before we left, Saxon was chasing Bryn in circles around the kitchen. I got in his way to grab him and he dodged me and smacked right into the edge of the counter which lead to the bruise above his eye.

The battle wounds, plus the tear streaks through the dirt made Saxon a sight to behold.
When Nate got home he asked Saxon what happened, and he said,
"Saxy's a poor guy!"
After milking all of the sympathy and attention he could from us, he wants to know if we can go back to Andi's again tomorrow.

Poor thing! So close to his eyes, too! Lucky it wasn't worse. I feel like Emmett always looks like a beaten child because he is so clumsy sometimes. I mean all the time!

oh poor guy is right...poor thing! i wish i was there to baby him :(
Eliot always had battle wounds from rough housing with the boys or falling when he was little...i hate the look people give you wondering how this poor child ended up with cuts and bruises on his face...HMM makes you wonder if THEY have EVER had children..boys for that matter!

Oh, poor guy! I guess he wasn't too badly hurt, since he wants to go back :)

Your Easter sounds like fun- lots of candy and plenty of family usually makes for a total blast [and a mess, but oh well]!
