ouch report


as you know, we are in a bruisin phase with little declan. last sunday at church was no different. we picked him up from the nursery without incident two weeks ago, he loved playing with all the new toys and kids for the hour and didn't even get sick after being exposed to all the other babies and germs. so we tried our luck the next sunday... only hesitant b/c the first time he was in the church nursery in june he picked up the worst superbug/cold i've ever witnessed in a baby. he couldn't breathe for days, didn't sleep at night, therefore we didn't sleep either. that nasty cold turned into a double ear infection causing many more days of grief blah blah blah ssssoooo went my hesitation with the germy nursery. but we love going to church on sundays, especially b/c our human alarm clock starts crowing at 6:30 am and he doesn't take days off on the weekends.

last sunday we picked him up after the service with an ouch report. yep, we got our first note home at 9 months. mr. busy was climbing onto the rocking horse and just kept going through the other side landing on the hard floor on his eye. he had a little gash and bruise. so sad. i don't hold anything against those sweet volunteers though, he appears so sturdy and active but is overconfident about his abilities. he sometimes just looks across the room and decides to head over there though he can't walk. someone literally has to be there to spot him or catch him pretty much around the clock.

the church workers were so sweet and offered to call during the week to check in on him, it is their standard procedure. i declined, knowing he was really ok.

*sigh* i need to get this boy a helmet.
