We hosted our 4th annual easter egg hunt & potluck brunch again this weekend and boy, what an endeavor! It had snowed a few days ago so with the help of Melissa, Evan's mom, we shoveled the snow from the backyard for the egg hunt. And with snowboarder's help, we decided to make little trails all over the yard. When we got done, the yard looked like a maze of snow! We had a huge turnout, about 26 kids, definitely more than the previous years but I think moving forward, I'm going to start scaling down to no more than 15 kids. Otherwise, with the kids getting older, it's just going to be chaos.
Anyway, towards the end of the party, baby j was hanging out in the front yard with snowboarder and as he was making his way back to the front porch, he tripped and hit his head on the concrete steps! OWWWWW....I heard him crying but I didn't think anything of it since he was with snowboarder but when I finally went to see him minutes later, snowboarder had him in his arms and baby j was just balling. I walked up to check on him and there it was, staring me in the face, a golf ball sized bump on baby j's forehead!!!! I didn't freak out or anything or maybe I did and I don't remember, but when baby j reached for me I calmly took him inside, got his favorite pillow and had snowboarder grab some ice. J finally settled down and actually let snowboarder hold the pack of ice on his forehead for a long time. We gave him some Motrin and hoped that it was nothing serious. We thought about going to the hospital but decided to keep an eye on baby j for the next 24 hours and take it from there. Surprisingly, j didn't want to nap and hours later seemed like he was back to his normal self and his golf ball bump shrunk down to the size of a gumball!
