I know it was a matter of time and I also know it won't be a singular occurrence but I had hoped maybe not his face a mere two days before his 1st Birthday.
I received a call from work this afternoon from Declan's daycare. Kelly was calling to tell me that although Declan was ok, he'd had an accident and would have a goose egg when Tyler arrived to pick him up. It was cold outside today and they were getting ready to go outside so Declan was in his snowsuit and the mitten parts were down so his hands would be warm. Kelly placed Declan down on the ceramic tile floor and she reached for another child's bag when Declan decided he wanted to try and move forward. He leaned forward trying to put his weight on his arms as he's been doing so offer now but this time because of his covered hands they slipped out from under him and Declan landed on the tile floor face first. Poor Kelly, she felt so bad. Little Declan has an indentation in his goose egg that shows where the grout was in the tile. Declan's little nose is also red and was even a tiny bit bloody. My poor little guy.
He seemed to fare well as he was happy with Daddy tonight and he splashed lots in his bath this evening before heading off to bed. I had to work late and got home just after 11pm so I snuck into his room so I could see him. He was sleeping peacefully and it seems like the swelling is down. There will be extra cuddles in the morning since I've not gotten a chance to help make it better with hugs and kisses.
Poor tough guy.
