Samuel is now at the stage where he is learning about gravity and the effect it has on a person. The effect it has on him is a bitten lip and a bump on the head. Luckily gravity was kind to him, because it could have been much worse. Yesterday he took a header over the couch and on to the floor. I was in the kitchen unloading the dishwasher and heard the thud and the cry. He was very lucky he didn't hit the folding chair to the computer and/or the computer desk. This is now the second fall he has taken. He also fell over the chair in our living room and hit the floor. He was unscathed after that one. One would think that he would learn, but this is adult logic and not toddler logic. Adult logic is "what goes up, must come down". Toddler logic is "what goes up, comes down, but is it true with all things? I must fully investigate this." I know that there will be many more times of falling. But, I am praying that he will come out of them (or down from them) with minor bumps and bruises.
By the way, last week, I blogged about Josh's experience with tuna and swordfish. We now are pretty sure that it was not an allergic reaction, but seafood poisoning. We talked to another couple at church that has had the same experience with tuna. We are very glad that it wasn't an allergy, one major food allergy is enough in our household!

Did Sam bite through his lip? This weekend Micah was pushing a truck on the sidewalk and it hit a bump and he did a face first dive into the pavement. He's got a scrape on his forehead, a cut under his nose that makes it look like a blood booger hanging from his nose, scrapes on his lip and he bit into his lip bad enough to change the color of my shirt from white to red. The swelling didn't go completely away until this morning. So now all that's left is the scrapes. Boys!
On a brighter note, (or not) Micah's discovered the phrase "what's that?" and he won't stop saying it until you tell him what he's pointing at. Oh, and he learned how to say "shoo fly" except it sounds like "foo fye"
Maybe I'm collecting enough funny anecdotes from Micah to write my own blog? :)
