Boo Boo

Somehow we have been very lucky with Maddox so far in the boo boo department.  He has not had any major injuries or falls.  Overall he is a very cautious child and has rarely ever even had to have a band-aid.  Last night was an exception.  He was playing in our backyard yesterday and took a major spill... he crash landed into a brick wall. :(  He actually took it pretty well.  I, however, did not...

The picture does not show it very clearly, but he literally looked like he had an egg sitting on his forehead.  We brought him inside, gave him a bowl of Reese's Pieces (don't judge), and immmediately iced it.  I called the doc for safe measure, who actually recommended taking him to the ER.  We decided against it since he was acting totally normal and showed no signs of a concussion or anything.  We wanted to watch him at home for a while and by this morning you could barely tell anything had ever happened.  He was quite a sport, let me tell ya.  But I knew he would not have been if we had to spend 5 hours in the ER.  I am so thankful he was ok, and I am sure this is the first of many incidents like this one. 

Poor baby :(
