You Should See the Other Guy ...

At the hospital
Last night saw round 1 (and hopefully the only round) of Fiona vs. the toddler bed. It was about 6:30 pm. I was putting Quinn in her pajamas, Mike was juggling (per Fiona's request), and Bugs was running around her room. As usual, she was not watching where she was going ... and she tripped over my legs at full speed and went face first into the toddler bed frame. Or more accurately - nose first!

Her face immediately started swelling up, so we turned Q over to Gma and Gpa and headed off to urgent care. By the time we got in, the swelling was already much better. But they confirmed that her nose was not broken (apparently it is virtually impossible for them to break it at that age ... good to know!) and that she did not have a concussion. Thank goodness!

She does have quite a scrape and bruise on her nose and it looks like her left eye may end up with a shiner. But even today, it didn't seem to be bothering her at all. And she is as fearless as ever! Now if Mike and I can only get back those years she shaved off our lives ...
