I am having the worst week with my kids...
Last week my daughter fell (playing with her brother in a doll stroller) we took her into urgent care, turns out she cracked the bone in her wrist. She has to wear a cast for 2 weeks.
2 days later my son is running like wild in the house and slips on the tile and splits his lip open on the window moulding. Took him to urgent care and he had to have several stitches in his lip.
Today we were shopping at Lowes and he is messing around in the cart and jumps out and hits his head on the floor. Big goose egg! Thank goodness we didn't have to take him to urgent care of we would have had CPS called on us.
Some days I wonder how they will survive childhood.:ohno
Oh the kicker is that while at Lowes we were talking to somebody who worked there and my Daughter asks her "can you help me find my mommy"...while I am holding her hand!!! the lady looked at us like we were crazy. My DD made it look like I was stealing her. UUUGGGHHHH!!! I want to scream!

:lol2 Got 3 kids, know just what you are going through!!! When ds was little, the ER in our area would give out t-shirts to the kids. We collected sizes 9 months through 2 years for our son. (He skipped walking and went straight to climbing and running.)

Got four kids, each one stills throws me for a loop at times. The oldest, when he was very young pull the similar stunt, except he was pulling away from me screaming, help me help me. I was so embarrassed.
The youngest one (3) peed in the dogs water bowl in the house. Now how do their minds work to even come up with something like that.

Doesn't it make you wonder how all these adults around us lived to be adults?

My son, (who made it to 37) the year he was 9, was in the ER 3 times, and at the drs.office once a month I swear. I thought I would be arrested for abuse. He out grew this year and so will your kids.
If you were not concerned, I would be concerned. Your are doing a good job and don't let anyone tell you differntly.:thumb:thumb:thumb
