Boo boos (Yes, Mommy records everything)

Chance's first real boo-boo happened last weekend when we took the twins to push their "cars" in the parking lot by the pool. (See VIDEO below of Chance pushing the stroller instead--it's bigger than his "car," don't cha know.) Running as fast as possible with his "car," Chance suddenly slipped and scraped his knee, making it bloody and icky, which is only partly visible in this picture because it has been cleaned and rubbed with Neosporin. He didn't cry but stopped playing a couple of times to touch his knee and grimace.

Mommy has had some difficulty keeping bandaids on him, so yesterday, she bought "Extra Large Tough-Strips Waterproof with super-stick adhesive to stay on longer" (aka Duct Tape) . . . he still pulled it off. So last night, Mommy put on Neosporin and TWO of the Tough-Strips. Mommy couldn't get the bandaids off today . . . they're really stuck on his skin. Guess we'll leave 'em on till bathtime tonight!

FYI: Gracie's first real boo-boo happened in July at Grandpa's house. Mommy was pulling her in a plastic wagon on the driveway, and when she shifted her weight while Mommy pulled, she toppled backward and scraped up her back . . . you can still see tiny remnants of that one today. :(

Gracie taking a rest from pushing her "car"; she thought it was fun to sit by the curb next to Mommy or Daddy.
