A Hard Head

Yesterday we were all getting ready for church. Everyone was scurrying about doing their own thing when Savannah decided she wanted to come downstairs to check on me. What followed was one of those noises a parent never ever wants to hear. We heard a loud crash followed by screaming...Savannah fell down the stairs from about the halfway point! If you have ever seen our staircase, you know that a fall down them is terrifying! She came up with a welt on her head bigger than one I have ever seen and it immediately turned blue! Mike decided we needed to take her to a walk in to get it checked out. She ended up being just fine...turns out she must have a really hard head. All the damage was external thankfully.

Here is here battle wound after we made it home from the ER.


So the doctor said that she was fine to sleep and everything but that she needed to be checked on every 2 hours or so during the night just to be sure everything was alright. We decided to have her sleep downstairs with me so that I could check on her as I was getting up with Owen. Turns out I didn't have to wake her up at all, she had me up every 2 hours talking in her sleep or flailing about!!!
