So Ryan finally got his first major boo-boo. And thankfully it happened at Grandma Betty’s house and not mine! He fell while walking while carrying a toy, and the toy hit the face!
Now he has a lip to match his cheeks! We tried to get him to eat a freezy pop but he wouldn’t have any of it. He has all his teeth, and none are chipped, and he ate dinner (duh), so he’s fine. Actually, by the time I put him to bed the swelling was at least half of what the picture looks like.
Two good JP quotes:
The first one happened Sunday as we were trying to get ready for Splash Lagoon. The only thing left to pack was us, and Ryan was not cooperating at all. In fact, he was at the opposite corner of the house! JP wanted to go and asked what was left and we told him Ryan. He looked at us and said:
“Just leave a trail of food and Ryan will be right here!”
Today I took the girls for a walk with JP while we were waiting for Kelly to get home with the injured Ryan. For some reason JP thought I was trying to get him in some danger because we have to walk in the street (no sidewalks). So I asked him if I ever let him get hurt. He didn’t miss a beat. “At Jackie’s party you let me fall down the slide and I had all that stuff in my mouth!” Okay….. At Jackie’s graduation party he was playing on the playground (during the few times it wasn’t raining…) and the slide was really slippery and he lost his balance and went down head first and then face first into the mulch. I was like 50 feet away!! When he does these things he reminds me of his Aunt Jackie with the memory…
