Follow me to see how this year unfolds one picture at a time...
Sometimes I get a few days behind in my posts but I am always taking the pictures. I just do not always get on the computer daily to post. If I get behind, keep checking back, there is always a picture for each day! :)

Taking a Tumble

One of my biggest fears of our current home is the stairs. They are really steep and ground at the bottom is tile. I have been constantly paranoid that one of the kids (especially Emma) would fall down them and get seriously injured. I've taken a few tumbles but just had some sore body parts afterwards. Riya has missed a few steps before but, again, just a few bumps. Not too sure about Jayden and John. Emma decided that she'd better take her turn today since we are moving out on Wednesday.
John and I were both in our bedroom when we heard the tumble down - it took a few seconds to register what it was but that's all it took and John was down at the bottom holding her. She fell from the top to the bottom and landed on some shoes! Thank goodness they were there to break her fall!! She came out of it with just a rug burn under her left eye (see picture). She had a good cry but calmed down pretty quickly and she didn't appear to be in pain - just shook up. We gave her some tylenol for a possible headache and she seemed fine the rest of the night!
I am so glad we will not have stairs in our new house!!
