Elijah's tumble

Scott, Elijah and I had a picnic lunch outside on our patio yesterday. We got the table and chairs out of the shed and enjoyed the nice weather. We were having a great time until Eli decided to turn around and stand up on his chair. Those little plastic chairs fall over so easily and he went down so fast that I couldn't catch him. He fell face first into the cement patio. You can't tell in this picture, but there is a big long bruise on the left side of his forehead and along with his entire nose scrapped up, he also cut his bottom lip. He is such a little trooper, though. He cried more from the ice pack I was trying to hold on his head than he did the actual fall. Of course, by the time I got him cleaned up, Izzy had eaten our PB&J Sandwiches off the small table outside. It was fun while it lasted.
