"Stiches"

When my little brother "Doodle" was 3 (maybe 4) years old he slipped in Macys Furniture Department and landed in the corner of a coffee table. To make him feel better he got a stuffed teddy bear he affectionately named "Stitches. To this day he has a little scar on his lip.

Well... today Lucas had a similar experience. He slid straight into our cubes and did the silent cry. He sat there with the saddest expression on his face and then about 10 seconds later he started wailing. It was the saddest cry you had ever heard. I quickly scooped him up and we rocked until he was feeling better. I got some ice and when I put it on his eye he naturally hit it off. He took the ice pack from me, then put it on himself. I guess it doesn't feel AS bad if you do it yourself.

He is one tough little guy. I turned on some Kipper while I made lunch and he was a happy camper.

His new black eye:



Nothing a little Choclate Chip Cookie couldn't cure:

Love him!

Ohhh, bumps and bruises are rough. We've had our share over here too. Just makes them tougher, right?
