So Jett had his first big tumble today.
He fell down our deck stairs. He was playing Russian roulette and I was just getting off my seat, half stride there when he started his decent. It seriously seemed like it took him 5min to fall down the stairs, and I was chasing after him but just couldn't catch him, I could hear myself screaming at ever step he hit! He landed on soft grass, but still bouncing down wooden steps has got to HURT! I just yelled at the girls to get inside with me and for once they listen well.
Once I got him in side and assessed the situation, I felt he was fine. It didn't get to the ugly crying, which is good. After some cuddles and a drink from his bottle he was fine. He does have a bit of road rash on the side of his one eye, and not really a black eye, but a bruised/red/swollen one. I wonder what it will look like tomorrow. Yes I know I should have a pic, I will take one tomorrow. 20min after the incident he was roaming around, being himself. So all ended well. Until the next time the boy in him comes out.
Yikes! I'm glad he's ok besides the scratches. Kids bodies are pretty good for handeling that stuff. Hopefully not another tumble for a while.
ReplyDeleteKids do get more owies the more mobile they get too. My kids had permabruise on their foreheads when they first started walking.
