Yep, today's been another busy day. Every time Jason goes out of town, we seem to have some type of adventure, or misadventure. Today at nap time was the first time that I have been by myself to put David in his new bed for nap. He was asleep in the car after school when I put him to bed. He kicked and screamed and fussed. Finally, he just gave in and I was patting myself on the back at how easy the transition was going to be. Next, I heard his door opening and closing. I went in there and put him back to bed, kicking and screaming. I promised I would bring him 2 pretzels to keep him in bed and go to sleep. So, I did that and thought I was in the clear. I heard closet doors opening, drawers opening and toys being played with, but I didn't worry. I thought if I could get 30 minutes with him behind closed doors, I would make it through the day. Then I heard, crash...crash...crash....So, I ran into his room. He was on the floor with his legs up in the air and seemed to have the wind knocked out of him. He never cried. His toy organizer buckets were tumped in the floor with toys everywhere and his "work car" up against the toy organizer. He must have been climbing up there with his "car" and fell off and dropped all of the toys. He said he was fine, but wouldn't go back to bed. So, I negotiated with him and he got to lay on the couch. When he was dancing around and not resting, I got the spoon after him and it was then I noticed that his whole right eye from his eyebrow to his cheekbone was red. I asked him if it hurt and he said it did a little. He said he didn't fall on anything and hit his eye, but the toys hit him (I'm sure he was minding his own business when the toys flew out of the closet and knocked him out of his bed). Here is a picture of David right after the incident and his room afterwards.

David's Black Eye
