Sad moments

Today we had two sad moments which broke my heart. My sweet baby isn't always the best on his feet having just learned to walk, and if he's in a hurry or not concentrating he tends to slip or trip or fall over. Well today he kept tripping and falling down just the same as any other day. This afternoon he tripped and landed smack on his nose. He's tough so he just stopped for a minute then hopped up and ran off like nothing happened. A few hours later was a different story. He was playing with Kacean and Ber and got overly excited and slipped on my entry way and rammed his head into the corner of my wall. I was in the restroom and I heard Kacean yell for me and when I came out this is what I saw.



My poor baby boy got his first goose egg and it's a honker! I couldn't believe how fast it popped out, it was within a matter of seconds.


This picture isn't great but it kind of shows how much it was sticking out from his forehead.


This picture breaks my heart ... his tear stained cheeks and sad eyes.


But unfortunately, this clumsy streak was not over yet. We left my house about 10 minutes after this nasty fall and headed for my moms house to borrow her tiller. He was running around outside and tripped (again..) and this time hit his forehead in two places on her shed door!! How does that happen? The good thing was he didn't hit the same spot again, it was over just a little bit.

Now this is his forehead with three battle wounds that all happened within an hour! (Don't mind the finger up his nose, it's all he does now days.)




His forehead with all three marks along with his new trick ... today he figured out that TWO fingers can go up his nose at the same time!


Let's hope tomorrow is a more stable day.

Poor thing!! The first goose egg is always the hardest. Unfortunately, as you saw today, there will be many more to come and they will make you want to cry every single time!!

Oh my! He's got some nice battle wounds!
I can't believe how grown up he looks in these pictures. Such a cute little man.
