While cleaning my bathroom yesterday I left Asher playing on the floor in my bedroom. He was on carpeting with a couple baby appropriate toys {read: nice and soft}. All seemed well until I returned to check on him and found this:
{See the cut beneath his left eye? It looks bigger in person.}
What, the what??
How did that happen?
There are 2 major mysteries here.
#1: How did he manage to cut his face? His finger nails are super short and he was only playing with soft toys.
#2: What kind of baby cuts his face to the point of bleeding and doesn't make a peep? There wasn't any crying or even a quick shout out. That's the main reason I didn't realize anything had happened until later.
In general he seems totally fine. It's just so strange! At any rate, I think this confirms my exclusion from the mother of the year award. I find some comfort from knowing that no matter what happens I'll always be the mother of his year {by default, but who's counting.}
Poor Asher... you're starting to look like Eli, who forever seems to have a nick by his nose or a scratch on his head! :-(
ReplyDeleteRight there with ya, friend!
ReplyDeleteAt least when it happened you weren't hiding in the bathroom shame-eating half a dozen cookies, right? Look on the bright side :)
Aw. Don't worry You're not alone. Ethan seem's to cut himself all the time no matter how short I get his nails!
