Baby Headaches

Hope your Wednesday is fab. If it isn't, you can let me know and I will make sure and pray for whatever is going on!!

In other news, Monday night we had our first CK super trauma. 

She likes to run.

She also likes to open the bottom metal cabinet drawer and empty it out.

Running and metal cabinets do not go together. 

As she was "JET"ting around the kitchen

  (she puts her arms back behind her when she runs, I guess for less wind resistance??),

 her foot caught on a rug and BAM!

Face to corner of drawer.

Screaming immediately ensued, followed by tears - mine and hers-

blood was gushing out of her face - I couldn't tell where from AND we couldn't find Jared.
By the time we ran out the front door and found him, I figured out it wasn't her eyeball,
thank the Lord,
but I was still thinking we should go to the ER.
So we went.
And walked in.
And there were 50 bazillion people in line.
And C wasn't crying or bleeding anymore, so we left.

Hopefully this thing heals up without scarring. It's pretty tiny, and looking back on the situation, we probably shouldn't have even walked in to the emergency room.
With a naked bleeding baby,
and an unshowered, covered in blood mom,
and a sweaty, outside working dad.
I think we could have more problems brought on by CPS than the slight forehead gash,
if they were judging us by the way we looked.

Disclaimer : We called the Dr., in case you were wondering, and he said she would be fine.

And she got an "icicle" out of the deal.

We got several "you shouldn't be a parent" looks at the grocery store with our butterfly stitch, 

and then to confirm their fears CK's diaper overflowed onto the basket. 

Gross.

We definitely should have stayed home, or ditched the bandage.

Sorry about your kid's hair...

Anyone ever done anything REALLY stupid?

Like say, cut your nephew's hair?

Yeah - I did. 

You can imagine how it turned out. I am not a barber, nor am I a hairdresser. One bad snip and it was all over. I wish we could blame it off on him, but he was being perfectly still. (He is still VERY HANDSOME, there's just this one part on his bangs....)

Once when I was asked to do some of my High School friend's hair for Winter Formal my hubby asked me if I was good at doing hair, to which I replied, "Yeah."

" Jar, check out my hair everyday," was what I should have said to this obviously rhetorical question. Could he not see I was awesome at hair? Did he not recall I did my entire wedding party's hair? Come the heck on. 

I cut my bangs, I once cut my mom's hair, I just knew I could cut the Ryk-Man's hair. 

After we got home... after the "incident," he let me know, in his usual, very sweet way, I was overconfident. 

I am officially the Worst Aunt EVER!

He is getting a baseball hat and a toy from his Aunt RaeRae this week, I've got to make my way back up into the ranks of people he is allowed to be left alone with. 

Look at this adorable fella at his first haircut. He will be returning to this lovely establishment for future haircuts after the disaster of tonight, I am sure!
