Accident Prone

We have determined that Eli is accident prone. He just wants to do everything his big brother does and he winds up falling down in the process. He constantly has bruises on his head and face. Last week, while at a friends house, he fell and got a huge bump in the middle of his forehead, got scratches on his nose and busted his lip. In the first photo you can kind of see the fading bruise in the middle of his head. This past Friday, he fell and got a huge bruise on the side of his forehead (again, seen in the first photo). Then yesterday, the worst fall of all, his bottom teeth through his bottom lip (I tried to get photos of this, but it is hard with a moving 17mo. old). He was trying to climb up on a barstool in our kitchen and he pulled it down on himself. I was not here, thankfully, so Kevin took him to the hospital. The Dr. decided not to sew it up because that could increase the risk of infection. He simply gave Kevin a prescription for antibiotic and said we should come back if it gets worse. I was terrified about what I would see when I arrived home, but it really doesn't look that bad. It just looks like two small slits on the outside (the size of his tiny teeth). It isn't swollen at all. He doesn't act like it bothers him one bit. He hates the antibiotic, but other than that, he is no worse for wear.
