Another Boo Boo :(

I'll start by saying that I'm ok!  Mom got a call at work today saying that I had an accident and had a boo boo on my face :(  I was playing hockey at Jump Bunch and tripped over a hopscotch rug and hit my face on the door of the toddlers room.  My teacher said that I was crying (mom could hear me), but that it wasn't cut and that my eye and teeth were ok.  I hit my cheek and forehead and you can definitely see the line of the door. 

Mom called dad and he went over to school to check on me.  It wasn't too bad - purple and swollen, but I was happily playing when dad got there.  Dad stayed for a while and mom called the doctor to see if they wanted me to come in.  It didn't sound like I had a concussion, so they told mom what to watch for and said to keep me up or if I fell asleep to watch me closely and to check on me every few hours tonight. 

Daddy tried to go home to go back to work, but I got pretty upset and just wanted to go home.  It's been hard for my teachers to keep me awake on a normal day and they didn't seem to be able to convince dad that they would be able to keep me up today either (which was clearly more important than just preserving bedtime).  So I stayed at school for lunch, then mom came to pick me up right before nap time.  I was SO good and let mom work when we got home.  She even moved my puzzle board into the living room so she could keep an eye on me while she worked.  Mom and dad took turns watching me so the other could make calls for work.  It worked out well and I stayed up and they both finished their days. 

Mom and I sat down to watch Sleeping Beauty before dinner and I was getting really sleepy, so mom let me take a quick nap on her shoulder on the couch.  I was pretty tired, so mom and dad had a tough time waking me up about 20 minutes later, but once I got up I was fine and mom made dinner for us.  I even got to play a few games with daddy! 

We had a great dinner (Whole Foods' Tikka Masala simmer sauce is *really* tasty).  I devoured my cauliflower and even asked for more (mom constantly says she's so glad I'm such a great eater).  Then I got to pick a treat out of my pumpkin (which is almost empty much to mom's liking).  I even shared my treats with mom and dad - dad says mom got the better treat (I picked a peanut butter candy bar for mom and an orange tootsie roll for dad...), but they were both happy and I loved mine.  I took a nice warm bath, then brushed the sugar bugs off of my teeth, read a book and went to bed.  It didn't take long for me to fall asleep tonight and I think mom's going to check on me A LOT tonight! 

Here's my boo boo :(  Doesn't look too bad, but my cheek was pretty purple and shiny.  I told mom that it still hurt right before bed, but hopefully a good nights sleep will fix it all. 


Here are a few more photos from the past few weeks - it's been busy!  Daddy had a week long sales meeting, so mom and I were on our own.  I had a *really* good week and had my listening ears on the whole time (well, ok, most of the time).  But I sure was glad when daddy got home on Friday!   

Squash soup and veggies - my favorite (and yes, I ate that entire plate of broccoli).


Look how far I can jump!


Rockin' the piggy tails with my favorite breakfast (or breakfarest as I say for some reason)...English Muffin with peanut butter.


I came home from school the other day and told mom "I love my pet!"


Mommy and daddy's friend Jeff came to visit last weekend!  We had so much fun and he even brought me this awesome doggy from Carson and Sienna.  I named him Sirius (Siri) after their dog.  I've slept with Siri every night since and pretty much use him as a cover.  Thank you Jeff, Kathryn, Carson and Sienna!


I've learned all about the seasons and know that in the fall the leaves change colors and fall off of the trees.  I was helping mommy mow the lawn and rake some of the leaves.


My last soccer class for the season was last Saturday.  Daddy took me and let mom hang out at home with NOTHING to do for an hour.  How divine!  I got the coolest medal from Coach Sean!  I don't think I'm going to sign up for the winter session because our weekends are so busy, but I'll probably go back in the spring. 


I've really been enjoying my blocks lately.  I got a few new Matchbox cars the other day, so mom and I built a ramp out of the blocks.  I learned which shapes to put in which order to make the cars roll down.  Mom and I tried it out with several different cars to see how far we could make them go. 


I love taking my kitty for walks!


I'm so quick at my Fox in Socks puzzle now. 


I can't believe that Thanksgiving is next week already!  I'm so excited to be able to spend it with my great-grandma whom I don't think I've seen since I was 9 months old.  She asked me to bring some games with me so she can play, so I think I'll pack Candy Land and Chutes and Ladders. 

Take care!
