Careful!!!

Before you read this post, let's all have a collective "Poor Guy!" for Alex - he REALLY konked his head this afternoon.....

After I got off of work, Alex and I went over to Andy's clinic because I have been having terrible cramping and back pain all day. I wanted to see if Andy could maybe put some heat on it and take care of a little of the pain. Alex has been to Andy's clinic hundreds of times - he knows where everything is....even what he shouldn't be getting in to. Well, Andy's office is one of the places that Alex isn't allowed in, because he resets the computer and that screws with the entire office computer system.
Anyway, Andy has been putting a chair in front of the door handle (because Alex knows how to open the doors there) to keep him out of the office.
Alex was running around, as usual, only cut the corner around the chair a little too close. He went flying forward, smacked his head on the doorframe.
Despite the minutes upon minutes of crying (which seemed like an eternity to me), he strongly refused to let us put any type of ice or anything cold on it. Believe me, we tried as hard as we could - but once he would get settled down, if he saw the ice pack or even an ice cube, the screaming started all over again.
So home we came and gave him some Tylenol, and he seems to be back to "regular" Alex. We took these shots as he was eating supper - because that is one of the few times he is sitting still long enough for us to get a shot! He's in the bathtub now, because he was just gross from childcare today. He must've played hard, he stunk when he got home!!! Guess that means that he had a good day! :)

I'll keep telling him to be careful with that head of his - hopefully he will start to listen one of these days! :) (Yeah, right!)

One more thing - Happy Birthday to Grandpa Bowin!
