There are good days and there are bad....

Yesterday was a great day! The kids played and were in wonderful moods! Here are a few pictures. Braden learned to get around on his "car" while Hailee mastered her 63 piece jigsaw puzzle she received the other day!

That brings us to today. First let me set up the scene...Braden has his crib in our room...he naps there during the day but we have his playpen in the office for at night. When we go to bed we put our extra pillows in his crib. Braden is in the middle of my bed, playing with the fringe on a throw pillow while I get his crib ready for his morning nap. I'm talking to him and he's smiling....Sammy comes in the room and Braden wants to see. In less than 2 seconds he's at the end of the bed...I turn and see him falling but can't catch him in time! His face hits the floor and his back flips over him, bending his neck backwards! OMG! He starts SCREAMING and I of course start crying out of sheer PANIC! I get his blankie and take him to the rocking chair to calm him down. I make sure he can move his neck on his own and walk before putting him down for his nap. whew. but this is what he has when he wakes up...rug burn on his eye (and cheek a little bit). poor little man!

Oh, that always causes panic. I remember the couple of times my kids had something like that happen as babies and you just are scared to death of their little bodies getting hurt easily. I'm glad he was okay other than the burn.
