Accident Prone

Our boys are like walking-disasters-waiting-to-happen.  Just in the last week...
  • Noah chipped his tooth.  I have NO IDEA how...I was just changing his diaper one night, looked down and he smiled at me and I noticed he had a chunk missing out of his front top tooth!



  • Caleb swallowed the entire contents of a .5 fl.oz bottle of Infant Advil.  It had already been opened, so we weren't entirely sure how much he actually got.  A call to Poison Control told us that even if he had swallowed a full bottle, he would still be fine.  All medications are now stored safely in a cabinet out of reach and we are in search of a locking medicine cabinet.  Apparently "baby proof" bottles are not "Caleb proof".
  • Noah fell down a half-flight of stairs (thankfully the carpeted half).  I thought I shut the baby gate when I woke him up Tuesday morning.  I changed his diaper then put him down to strip the sheets off his bed (since Tuesday is the boy's laundry day).  The next thing I heard was a "thump, thump, thump."  My heart just about stopped beating for a minute or two!
I'm officially feeling like a very irresponsible and negligent mother!  :(
