First Fall

A couple of days ago, Gabe had his first fall. After a walk in the stroller, Gabe was watching Daddy do a landscaping project. I guess I forget to latch him in his seat, because poor Gabe leaned over to pick up his toy and plop. He landed right in the dirt. He didn't cry, but had the I'm scared look. Poor Daddy was broken hearted. It was mommy's fault. Lesson learned.
Here is our happy boy with his Daddy again that evening.

  1. I love how happy Gabe looks that he got to eat that dirt. All boy!

  2. We've all done something similar. Connor fell out of a carseat on the couch reaching for something. I was sitting right next to him so I didn't buckle him in. My mother-in-law asked me something and I looked up. The next thing I know he fell onto the floor. Kendall was buckled into her carseat, sitting on the shopping cart. Connor decided he didn't want her up front so he kicked the shopping cart as hard as he could. She fell out face first onto the cement floor. I don't even want to think what could have happened if she wasn't buckled into the seat. I still took her to the emergency room. She was fine. She did have some bruising from the buckles. I'm a little nervous about having another. Who knows what would happen to the next one!
