Bumps & bruises

Kasey took a few tumbles yesterday...he must be one tough kid!

I put him down for his afternoon nap yesterday and was on the phone with my manager for our one on one call to discuss all sorts of things - development plans, issues with accounts, general questions, etc. And then I heard a really loud
BOOM!!! come out of Kasey's room. That was followed by a second or two of silence...and then screaming.

Uh oh.

I was like "I'm going to have to call you back!"

I ran into Kasey's room and there he was at his door. He climbed out of his crib and fell on the floor. Oh man! He was so freaked out and had a bit of a fat lip as a result. It took me a good 5 minutes to calm him down. The poor little guy. He looked so scared.

Well I had him calmed down and let him down and he was playing with Dash. And a few minutes later I heard some
BANG Bounce BANG and then screaming. He fell down the stairs!! I thought the gate was locked at the top, but apparently not! (It turns out the gate is not working properly so we are going to have to replace it.) If we had carpeted steps I might not have been as worried, but the hard wood seems a little less forgiving. He must have hit his face again because there was just a teeny tiny little spot of blood near the gumline on one of his top two middle teeth.

Oh man! I felt terrible! First he climbed out of his crib and fell on the floor and then he fell down the steps!

We decided to go ahead and buy him a toddler bed so he can start getting used to that. He likes to play on it and pretend to sleep, but if you leave him in his room with the door closed, he freaks out. So I am going to have to keep a close eye on him in his crib for a while. I do NOT want him to fall again!
