B and I were taking Bubbie out for a walk this morning trying to get him worn out for a nap. Bubbie was not too keen on the idea and really didn't want to go. Well, during a minor tantrum, he fell on the sidewalk. Not too big of a deal, until we picked him up and he had split his lip and was bleeding everywhere. Good times. He looked like he'd been in boxing ring. When blood mixes with saliva, it never looks good.
I luckily had some Kleenex with me, got him cleaned up, and went home. All was fine and good. We had snack time with some apple and watched a little Nick Jr. to calm down. Then I noticed it. Bubbie chipped his tooth. Not a big Dumb and Dumber chip, but just a little one in the middle of his front tooth. Just enough for me to see it. Son of a .... I'm not too happy. He doesn't seem to be in any pain so I don't think he injured the root, luckily. But, I feel like I should take him to the dentist just to make sure there aren't any cracks. Yay.

Why you shouldn't let your toddler play with the phone.
I'm home with Bubbie today because of a random fever causing virus. It's a good time all around. I've had to check his temperature a lot with our ear thermometer and just generally let him chill. Well, we were coloring, while Bubbie held the phone, and noticed he was burning up again. I got up from his little table in the kitchen got him some Motrin off the counter. Mind you, I was about 2 steps away from him.
When I came back to give him the Motrin, I noticed that the phone was on and that he'd dialed a bunch of numbers. I didn't really look at them, just hung up the phone. Not 10 seconds later, the phone rings. It was the county sheriff dispatch. Awesome. Bubbie managed to dial 911 in the 30 seconds he had the phone without me hovering over him.
The dispatcher told me that someone had dialed 911 and they needed to check if anyone needed help. I explained that my almost 2 year old had been playing with the phone, but that I didn't think he'd actually dialed 911. Oh no, she assured me. He dialed 911 and then hit a bunch of other numbers. Sweet. She asked me Bubbie's age and my name and then double checked to make sure everything was okay. I was so embarrassed and apologized profusely for the accidental call.
I thought all was well until about 10 minutes later when the doorbell rang. I opened the door to find a county sheriff outside. He said that they had received a call and was checking to make sure everything was alright. I said yes and he asked to come in to check. I told him how Bubbie had somehow dialed 911 and he said that it's pretty amazing that kids can get the numbers just right to call. He was really nice, but again, I was super embarrassed and apologetic. The awesome part of it is that I know there was a squad car either in my driveway or in front of my house. Now I'm just waiting for the neighbors to come by to see what happened.
I just hope we don't get a bill for the visit! Good times.

Um, he's the cutest kid EVER!!
Now, I know that all moms say that about their kids, but I'm hard pressed to not believe that my little guy is the cutest kid ever.
Bubbie's gotten to an age (21 months) where he is just so fun to interact with. He's talking in little sentences, dancing, joking around, telling us what he wants - really all sorts of stuff. He's also sleeping in his big boy bed at night, which is essentially a mattress with a mattress cover and fitted sheet on the floor.
So last night, we're doing our bed time routine and Bubbie started to do the same routine with his little kitty cat that he sleeps with. He was giving it kisses,saying "Sleep tight, sleep with the angels, see you in the morning" (which I say to him every night) in his little way to the kitty and tucking it in with a blanket. It was one of the cutest things I have ever seen him do.

It's just amazing to me how much he's changed in the last year. He's gone from this:
February 2009 - Just started crawling
February 2009 - Just started crawlingTo this:
January 2010 - Still working with B
I can't believe he's going to be 2 in a few months. How has time gone by so fast? No sir, I don't like it.
