Never been so scared!!

We had the scariest thing happen today. Rob, Makayla and I were shopping at Costco, we normally put Makayla in the front of the shopping cart so she can move (cuz we all know how much of a busy body she is and hates being strapped down) so like normal we put her in. During our shopping I was in the front near her looking at a movie and while she was trying to reach me to have me hold her she falls over and lands directly on her head onto the cold hard floor. I screamed so loud that everyone was staring at us and both rob and I raced to her. I just barely saw her hit her head and I thought for sure she had split her head open and there would be blood everywhere, but thankfully there wasn't. We decided to take her to the hospital just to be on the safe side. The doctors monitored her for a while and she is luckily okay, but I have never been more scared in my whole life
As I sit here crying as I'm writing all this I cant help but feel so incredibly blessed. Blessed that this perfect little girl is in my life and blessed that she is okay. I talk a lot about how crazy and active she is. I complain about how she throws the most craziest tantrums every second of everyday, I complain when she's teething and grumpy, and through out all that complaining of mine I dont meantion how much I LOVE this little girl. How stinking adorable every tiny little thing she does is. How sweet and loving she is. She is my best friend and she is only one. I feel so stupid for complaining about all the things I'm actually proud of. She's active and healthy and I love that. She wouldst be Makayla if she weren't. I know being a mom gets so hard and I get stressed, but I love this girl more than anything in the world. I'm so lucky to be her mommy. I just hope that she feels the same way about me.

This is our dog Smalls when we first got him as a puppy. I begged Rob forever to get a puppy and one of our good friends told us they had friends giving away puppy's for free I asked Rob if we could just go look at them. Well we ended up falling in love! We didn't just get one but we got two. We gave the other puppy to my mom for her birthday and kept smalls for us. He has been such a sweet dog. Before we had Makayla, Smalls was our baby and he was definitely treated like one too. We just love him so much. He may not be as tiny as he was in the picture but we still think he's the cutest dog.
