Still needs a Helmet

Gabe got a cool, new, authentic bomber jacket as a late Christmas gift and it's so adorable.....he loves to wear it every day and he even picked out a hat with a plane on it to wear with his mittens and bomber jacket. Good thing too, because he needed a new coat and we've had snow 3 times already this winter! He gets lots of compliments on it when we're out and he is wearing the new jacket. Gavin inherited his old one that he'd outgrown and they are really precious little look-alikes.

I guess you can tell by the bandage on his forehead that once again, he has a head injury. Ugh, it breaks my heart and I guess he really needs to wear a helmet around because it seems like once we get one wound healed up another one accidentally occurs. This one was a run-in with a mean and nasty coffee table corner and it might could have even used a stitch or two, but we didn't go to the hospital. He was such a champ about it, but it sure did bleed alot. Daddy got him Cars band-aids and fixed him all up, but we just felt so bad.

Gavin isn't much better. He acutally suffered a nurse-maids elbow (dislocation) on Christmas Day and we had no idea until the next morning when he wasn't using it at all. I took him to the pediatrician and she easily popped it back in but we have to watch him too for a while to keep it from reoccuring.

Mercy...boys are so rough and tumble!
