***UPDATE: These pictures don't really do the injury justice. It looks even more impressive today (Friday) now that a bruise has formed behind the scrape on her head and we can see the full extent of the cuts on her nose and just below. Clay would appreciate me noting that if I had remembered the stroller wasn't in the car before we left the house, this would never have happened!
The girl got her first face injury tonight. While playing in the parking lot of a car dealership (we're testing out minivans - I know, we are old), she lost her balance. Instead of simply catching herself with her hands as usual, a slight decline rolled her on to her face. She wailed LOUDLY (aka why we call her a drama queen), but was fine by the time I arrived back from the test drive. Daddy felt horrible that her first bloody face happened on his watch, but better him than me! She was fine until I tried to really clean it when we got home (these pictures were taken prior to that cleaning). It really could have been so much worse.
I figure this isn't our last facial abrasion...she's quite the adventurous one without any true understanding of depth. She's still quite cute though, isn't she?

Oh my gosh!! Yall are adorable(this is Rachel Julian, by the way). My email went fritzy and I had no clue how to get in touch with you. Then I saw yall on EJ's blogsite. How are yall?We are "just down the street" in Waco. It is an interesting place!! (:
How old are your kids?They are so adorable. Mine are 4(in 2 weeks) and 1(2 weeks ago). I read some of the blogs. I can totally relate to how having kids is a shock to the "get it done" mentality. That was my biggest struggle. It still is. I hope to hear from you soon!
Finally my kids aren't the only ones! She is still adorable through the boo-boo's!
