Bumps, Bruises, and Bites

Now that Avery is really on the move, more and more things have been moved to "safe" places, baby gates and outlet plugs are being put into place, everything that can be done to keep him safe from household dangers is being done. Bumps and bruises are going to happen even with all the baby proofing in the world, and this is okay.
Exploring the world and learning to crawl, stand, and walk  all come with the possibility of some bumps and bruises that is just the way is it. Avery found this out when he was investigating a glider rocker and it came back and hit his head, not a real big deal, but there were some tears, but after a little loving he was back to playing.

At daycare bumps and bruises are bound to happen too, but paper work is involved there. When Avery got his room moving paper work  it mentioned that now that he is more active and moving into a room with other more active children it could be likely I might see an accident report. Well I have seen an accident report, day 1 in his new room Avery got bit. It didn’t break the skin but I am sure it hurt since you could still see all the tooth marks hours later.

Avery is as tough little guy and will most likely have a few more bumps and bruises along the way, but I’ll be ready with Band-Aids, hugs and kisses.
