Abby Accident

While crawling around the floor today with a book, Abby slipped and fell. She did not let go of her book to catch herself. There was a loud thud and smack noise as the book and her head hit the floor. She must have bit her top lip because as soon as she opened her mouth to cry, there was blood everywhere. Laura was absolutely freaked out by the blood and wailing and I came running to see what had happened and assess the damage. While Laura got her a pacifier and some baby Tylenol I checked on Zoë only to see that she took the opportunity to raid the computer station, and bang the camera on the phone repeatedly. She is such an opportunist, that when Abby had recovered and was being changed, Zoë crawled over and took her pacifier from her mouth. We then gave Abby the cold pacifier from the freezer for her now very swollen upper lip. The bleeding stopped fairly quickly after the Tylenol and some cuddles. This was our first bloody accident experience. We were both sick to our stomachs. Laura still is.

Abby @ 1 year, 1 month, 15 days
Zoë @ 1 year, 1 month, 15 days
Enzo expected in 3 years, 7 months, 25 days

Abby, sweetie. I hope you are okay now. Uncle Matt hurt his lip when he was learning to walk, fell onto a hassock and bled like crazy, I called the doctor and walked him to the doctors just to be sure everything was okay and it was. I was sooo upset. But all was well. Mom and dad have to get ready, there is going to be other accidents, right Uncle Matt, Aunt Elizabeth and Daddy.
