Bad Mommy, Part II

I set Cecilia down on the sidewalk while Caroline and I were eating lunch on a bench at the outlet mall. She was really squirmy and wanting to explore. Well, she fell on her nose as she was crawling. She howled, then nursed and was all better... just this red, skinned nose.

Today, she crawled headfirst off a mattress on the floor and hit her nose against the rug. What had been a minor abrasion yesterday became a bloody sight from a horror film. It didn't even bleed yesterday, but it had gotten a little scabbed, so she interrupted the healing process. You can see how it looks even worse once I post Halloween pictures. It's too late to change her costume to Rudolph or wrap her in gauze and have her be an accident victim... she'll just have to be a gruesome pumpkin.
