One year old Injuries

I take pictures when my kids get hurt, just to remind them of it when they are older. Since Trenton bit through his lip. Ouch, I decided to put his picture up for all to see.It is crazy how this age is so prone to injury.
I remember when Jennedy was little this was the age that she was always getting hurt. Once she bit through her tongue. She still has a scar.
Also, she fell out of her high chair when she was being babysat and smashed her lip, got a bloody nose and bloody lip. The baby sitter called me at the adoption meeting I was at and I cruised home. After a pop sickle she felt better.

She rolled over and burned her hand on a heater. She just got hurt a lot. Here is a picture of her hand burned. She did have to go the hospital for this one and had to have burn cream put on and her dressing changed daily. She was a trooper and charmed all of the emergency room, she did not cry at all after the initial burn.

Jerika at this age dove off the bed and Smashed her head. She got a huge goose egg. I was a new parent so was at the hospital immediately with Joe. They took a cat scan and all was fine but Joe and I sat outside the room and cried for our little injured daughter. Boy things have changed. We no longer run to the hospital anytime there is an injury, we know what needs medical care and what does not. We have certainly grown as parents. Here is the picture of Jerika's bump.

I love it, I love it, I love it! This is so true. This is definitely the accident stage. Tanner is always getting new bumps and bruises and I have for the most part no idea where the come from. I am going to start taking pictures of these things too. You have inspired me thank you!
