Selena for Katie's birthday & stitches?!?!?

The Sunday afternoon before Katie's birthday, March 6, I was sooo excited to give Katie a really fun SURPRISE afternoon! I had gotten tickets for her, Gracie, & me to see Selena Gomez in concert! We were also going to spend the afternoon at the carnival, livestock show, & rodeo! Chris & Ellie were going to join us for part of the time and then leave when we went to the rodeo & carnival.

We started the fun by letting her choose where we went for lunch after church, Fuddruckers. She enjoyed playing video games.

She loves her new 'purse' she bought earlier that weekend. We've tried telling her that it's really a makeup bag, but she doesn't care. LOL

Finally, when we were ready to head to the BIG surprise...Selena...we told her the surprise! She was sooooo excited!

Loooong story short.....bad traffic.....uninformed rodeo goers that we are (were!)......blah, blah, blah, uneven sidewalk, blah, blah, blah, carnival scanners that didn't work, blah, blah, blah......CHRIS ended up going with Katie & Gracie to the carnival, rodeo, & concert while I took Ellie to 3 doctors which ended in screams, tears, & 4 stitches! UGH

Yes, I don't feel like relaying every detail, but my little girl went from the HEB clinic to the urgent care clinic to the ER.......

This is at the urgent care clinic. She's smiling....but still needed 4 stitches.

Here are the 4 stitches. Poor thing.

Next day...smiling again! She looked like a little old lady with whiskers growing out of her chin! LOL

Here she was a week later, about to get them taken out. OUCH! She didn't like that either!

They are now out, and it appears to be healing nicely.

So...ask Chris how much HE enjoyed Selena Gomez in concert! ha
