Can't Catch A Break

Why is the saying "when it rains it pours," so true?  Poor Eliza has had an eventful week. It started last Sunday with an quick trip down the stairs.  The good thing is Chris caught her.  The bad thing is she was at the top and he was on the bottom so she fell all the way down before Chris could get her.  Poor guy said that that was the worse thing he had ever seen. She was fine, just a little scared of course.

 The next day she woke up looking like this.  You know it's a bad eye infection when the Dr. is grossed out.  We got her on eye drops and she has been very cooperative with them.  She holds very still when I put them in. 

 On Wednesday we went to a friends house and she was playing with the wooden child's kitchen.  I looked over in time to see her pull it on top of herself.  As it came down the microwave door opened and got her right in the face.  She had a bloody nose, swollen lip and a good bruise on her cheek and forehead.  Fortunately, my friend is a RN so she sprang into action and checked Eliza all over. 


About 24 hours later the baby sitter was here and I was getting my hair done.  When I came back the baby sitter informed me that as Eliza was coming down the slide her foot caught and she was launched forward landing on her face.  Not only did it take a chunk of skin out on her nose but she landed on the goose egg she still had from the day before. 

Through all this she has still been smiling and very happy.

This is so sad!!! Oh man she reminds me of me as a kid. I was SOOO accident prone. I literally rolled down the stairs on more than one occasion. Don't worry. She's going to grow up to be a tough girl.
