Black eyed girl

Got a call from the babysitter on Tuesday. "Ainslee fell and has a good size gash on her face." Not what a mother ever wants to hear! This is the result 2 days later. The "gash" is right next to her eye, so she's lucky she didn't damage her eye any! Her eye is still pretty swollen and the prettiest shade of purple. The cut isn't as deep as originally thought, and she doesn't seem to be bothered much by it. Thank goodness she's so tough! I took the pic with my cell phone so it's hard to see, but you can obviously see that her left eye is smaller than her right. Poor thing! thank goodness it's healing quickly!

As for an update for me. I never did hear back from the Doc, so I went ahead and returned to work on Monday. I was able to get through the whole work week with limited contractions thanks to the medication he gave me. Now we're just playing it one week at a time. Baby is moving like crazy, and we will hopefully find out whether we are having a baby boy or girl next week. Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers for our family regarding this! It's very appreciated!
