Yikes! I read somewhere to watch baby boys for hairs getting wrapped around their little pee-pees like that. Can you imagine?

Dh was the one to always get Calvin dressed and to daycare when he was a toddler because I had to be at work at 7:15 and he had an extra hour. So one day they called and said Calvin had been limping and when they took his shoe off, his pinky toe was bent all the way backwards inside his sock! Poor baby. It was fine but to dh I was like "Could you not SEE that his freakin toe was bent backwards " But of course, the first time he ever bled it was my fault. He had pulled up to standing using my knee while I was sitting at the table at dh's aunt's, and all of the sudden, he let go, fell over, and hit his chin on the foot of the pedestal table. I felt sooo bad.

JM, that is so scary! I can't believe that can happen, how frightening!
Thank goodness his little toe was okay!

Now I'm remembering all the little hairballs of mine that would stick to all the terry sleepers and feeling anxiety that the same thing could have happened to my babies.

Ugh. I really need a chill pill.

Oh that poor baby! The pictures are soooo terrible to look at, actually made me sick to my stomache. I can't imagine how you must feel!

Glad he's doing a little better.
