Grocery Cart Gymnastics

And the Mommy of the Year Award goes to...L.J.'s Mama! Today we were in WalMart and just like normal, you would not sit in the front of the buggy. I put you in back of it sitting down. We were only going in there for one thing -Puzzles for you. You could sit for hours and do the same little wodden puzzle over and over again, so I thought we would get you some variety. So...I turn to look at the puzzles and you started to stand up. Before I could get to the back of the buggy you did a complete flip off the back and landed on the floor. It didn't appear or sound like your head hit, but you did bump your lip (I guess on the buggy). You were screaming, your mouth was bleeding and when I picked you up, you were peeing so much (I guess from being scared) that you leaked out of your diaper that I had just put on you 15 minutes before. We ran back to the bathroom to wipe off your mouth. No teeth missing...just a fat lip! After that you sat in the front of the buggy and played with the puzzles until we could pay and get out of there. What an adventure just for some puzzles. By tonight the swelling had gone down and you almost looked normal again. The whole experience definitely wore you out though because you took a 4 hour nap.

Ahhhhh! We've all been there in one way or another mama! Did I tell you about the time my sweet little bundle of baby joy fell off of the table in his carrier?? Oye ve! Definitely scares the bejeezies out of you! Glad that that lip of his is on the mend. Hugs to my buddy!
