And so it begins...

Let me start off by saying that as a child, the minor emergency clinic was a place that I visited often. There were the stitches in my lip from falling off of a horse. (The stitches went great with the bad perm that I had as a 3rd grader). The stitches I had to get in the back of my head were the result of my fantastic front flips into a pool gone awry. There was the black eye from a gymnastics incident, nerve damage in my arm from a Crack the Egg game on the trampoline..(I couldn't move my right arm for a few months...but it was all worth it when I was excused from P.E. and didn't have to do the chin up exercise competition that was going on and reveal to everyone that I could not do any..not one. I still think I am hindered in the chin up department..but I regress...

That being said..my husband is the opposite and has had a relatively accident free childhood with no stitches, or broken bones in his past....and I sometimes wonder who Wyatt is going to take after. Will Wyatt give us the same anxiety as I am sure I gave my parents a time or two..(or ten)?

Well, I think I received my answer about a month ago..(I know..I've been horrible about updating)..when Wyatt was running on the tile floor, slipped, and hit the front of his head on the leg of dining room table. A HUGE goose egg quickly came up and for the first time, I really panicked. After numerous calls and watching Wyatt like a hawk for anything out of the ordinary, my fears subsided and life went on.

Fast forward to 1 day later...and Wyatt is running on the same floor, slips at the same spot, but hits a different part of his head. Seriously?! This one wasn't as bad as the first, but it left a lovely bruise.

We took these the night of the 2nd incident.
Check out that profile..(!)

So I knew that Wyatt took after his Momma in the obvious things like his dark brown eyes...but I guess this could be the beginning of our little man taking after his mom in other ways.
Here we go!!
