Wipeout

Now that Rylee is more "active", she's also more accident prone. She had two hilarious crawling wipeouts on Sunday. The second one was practically a somersault. I think her arms got trapped beneath her because she was carrying something, but the momentum just carried her forward. "It all happened so quickly!" She didn't cry either time. She was more surprised -like whoa, what happened?!

Yesterday though she took two tumbles that left marks. She tipped over near a coffee table leg at my friend Karen's house and smacked herself in the head. She wailed pretty good on that one. Later she bumped the same side of her face, but more temple and cheek area, on one of the rocking horses upstairs (Poco to be exact). Luckily those red marks have subsided. I wouldn't want to take her in for her doctor visit today with too many bumps and bruises!

I'm sure that's just the beginning of the bumps and bruises. The more mobile she is, the more she's gonna fall down and smuck herself in a variety of ways. That's why it's good that nature makes 'em pretty sturdy!

Hope you have some cool bandaids. For some reason they have magical healing powers even if you are not bleeding.

Nice timing of your post. Miller literally ran in the bathroom tonight, slipped on the rug and smacked his head on the toilet. Instant black and blue egg on his head and probably a black eye tomorrow.

Poor kids, they do take spills. You fell out of your crib on your head at this age!
