Black and Blue

I vaguely remember commenting to Addie's pediatrician at her 2 year old check up (or sometime in there) how banged up and bruised her little shins and arms and head stayed! her pediatrician's response: she worries far more about the kids with no bruises than the ones with them (within reason of course!) because she knows they are actually outside playing!!!

but when its multiplied by two, it seems at bit more extreme!

there is climbing and running and tripping and falling. there are collisions and intentions and accidents and on-purpose-ohs!

i think i could pad every corner, every piece of furniture, every hard surface, and these girls would still find a way to bruise their sweet little heads and faces and eyes and lips!

audrey kate climbed on the sit-and-spin and fell off only to have her eye land on a wooden toy. mere hours later, she caught her shoe on the soft floor at chick-fil-a and her poor forehead collided with a bench!

last night as i was attempting to fold laundry, the girls were dancing and playing only feet away from me. i hear a thud and realize poor anne perry's head has landed on the edge of the living room chair.

it has not been a good week for our black and blue littles! i'm counting on this week to be much less active!
