She picked herself up with a smile on her face. It didn't look like she had cuts or bruises and finished her walk down the runway.
This is a more accurate picture of what happened to me today. Just ugly!!!
I was taking out some trash this morning with Rocco in my arms. I walked outside, put the trash in the trash can, turned around and headed back in the house. I really don't know what happend but I think my ankle turned on me (it happens quite frequently to me and actually it is hereditary and I get it from my Mom who has very weak ankles). It happened so fast and I tried to turn in my fall and protect Rocco but I was not so successful. We fell and we fell hard. I scraped up my elbow and knee and poor Rocco's head hit the sidewalk. I fell so hard I ripped open my pants (my favorite pair of pants that I wear 10x a week). Rocco was screaming. I was crying. We were a mess.
My Dad and Jillian came running out of the house. Jillian offered to go get a Band-Aid. Rocco stopped crying pretty quickly and upon careful examination, we could not find a scratch on him. What?? Dad thought he could feel a bump on the back of his head but that's it. THANK GOODNESS!!
I, on the other hand, did not fare so well. Elbow and knee are a bloody mess and pants are ruined. I am meeting the new superintendent of our school district today and now I am a mess! Oh well!! I tried to look nice. Now I just need to find another pair of pants that fit!!
Are mornings always this hard in your house?
Geez!

Oh man! I hope you're ok. I hit Allison in the head with the Wii remote this morning while "playing" squash on the workout game. She started screaming, and then Aidan started crying because she was crying. It seems to just be a bump, like Rocco. Craziness. Kiss his boo boo for me!
Oh goodness...I hate mornings like that. And ruining your favorite pair of pants is the worst! I am just glad you are both okay. I am so scared I am going to fall pregnant because I am so clumsy sometimes and try to do/carry to much!
I am glad to hear that Rocco is okay, but I am bummed about your favorite pair of jeans. It is so hard to find jeans that you love. I "bumped" Payton's head on the doorway yesterday. She screamed bloody murder and I felt awful. I'll try to give you a call tonight to discuss Spring Break.
