Hurricane Jake

Well, it's not been a good week so far for Jake's head. Here's the run down of his week, so far - and it's only Wednesday:

Sunday, while playing on his new fort, he walked straight into the side of the steps. Didn't leave a mark and after a few minutes of crying, we were back to playing.

Sunday, 20 minutes later: while climbing UP the slide, fell from about 3 feet and landed on his head on the grass. More crying. This one earned a trip inside. Ear is swollen and red. Mommy, in a fit of caution, let him stay up late (to make sure there was no damage). He wheedled a little Nemo, ice cream, and an extra book before bed: clearly no permanent damage to the brain.

Monday: Amazingly, no serious mishaps.

Tuesday: At school, while coming in from recess and flirting with the girls (according to sources who were there), ran full into a door. Bruise on the forehead and bruising around the eye. Not quite half a raccoon, but working on it.

I swear, the week before his 2 year pictures I'm going to wrap him in bubble wrap. I don't know how CPS does its job with 2 year olds - they all look like they've been beaten!
