boo-boo's and shoes

Rick and I enjoyed a night away with friends this past weekend, but we were also excited to get home to our little lady. About 12 minutes after we walked in the door, Leah tripped over her own feet and landed forehead first into a wall.
The poor thing, we went into first parent crisis mode - talking about concussions and head injuries while we tried to hold ice onto the swelling bump. Thankfully, we think she is fine and there was no brain damage. :) She has forgiven us for our panicky parenting!


Also, during this past week, Leah has started to wear real shoes. She was originally going to be moving up to the next age classroom at her school where socks and shoes are a full-time requirement, so we figured it was time to start getting her used to them. The first morning we put them on her, she was quite confused and then was even more confused when she tried to walk. It literally looked like she was walking in moon-boots, she picked her feet up so high. Have you ever put booties on a cat? (me neither) That is the same idea... It was hilarious! She isn't thrilled at all about them and she hasn't kept them on for more than an hour at a time at school. We'll get used to them slowly - and we're allowed to because now she isn't moving up at school until about November.
