So anyone who knows me and my family knows that our child is a SERIOUS boy. There is nothing calm or quiet about this kid. From the moment he started walking, or should I say running, he has been shortening my life expectancy. When he runs he leads with his head, he uses anything he can get his feet on to climb, and well he knows how to tackle already. So needless to say I spend a lot of my days saying "Corbin slow down" or "Be careful!"
Up until these past two weeks our injuries have been at a minimum, small bumps, bruises, and scrapes. That all changes two weeks ago though. As we were getting ready to leave the house I was in the bathroom doing some last minute things he came blasting into the bathroom with me and of course he big feet got in the way and one trip over the bathmat and PLOW! He crashed head first into the tub. As soon as i spun around he let out that awful cry that no parent wants to hear, as I turned i was greeted with this... Yep you guesses it, we were holding baby UFC matches in our home!!
Well finally the bruising has started to go away and we decided to go out on a play date with our friends. We had just loaded up the car and I left wildman outside with his little friend and my husband while I ran into the house for water. So the moment my feet crossed into the house I heard that terrible scream again. As I came out of the house into the garage I saw him holding his head and I could already see the blood. My first response was to rinse it off to see what we were working with. The more I rinsed the more the blood came. It was deep and I knew we were going to the ER instead of the playdate. What seemed to have happened was he came into the garage after me and again those big feet got in the way and he tripped and fell into the corner of the steps. After the fact and 6 stitches later I can say that 1 I don't ever want to do that again 2 Thank God it wasn't his eye and 3 he is getting a helmet with a full face mask for his birthday!!!
He isn't even 2 yet so I think its safe to say I will be going gray much sooner than I expected.
Who was it that said that boys are easier to raise than girls?!
