Em's first tumble

Oops! Em had her first tumble 3 days ago. She rolled off the bed onto the floor. Ouch!!! I was sitting right next to her and turned my back for a milli second, she lunged forwards and THUD! Actually, I distinctly remember hearing 2 thuds :(

When I heard the thuds, I remember turning quite unsuspectingly, expecting to see something had fallen onto the floor, it never crossed my mind that it would be poor little Em!! She was lying face up and had immediately started wailing. Omg... My heart almost stopped. I held her in my arms and instinctively rubbed the back of her head while I dialed the hubby (who rushed home upon hearing her ear piercing screams). Only when I held her back to look at her a bit later did I see the huuuuge lump on we forehead. My gosh it was hugggeeeee! Poor girl.... She was screaming her lungs out and this being the first time, I didn't know if it was hospital worthy or not. A quick call to the PD determined she should just be monitored for unusual activity, drowsiness or vomiting. Luckily she was back to her smiley self within minutes so that reassured me that she was ok. What a trooper!

Later that afternoon, I placed her on the floor mat since high spaces were now a no-no and look what she does - pulls herself up into a standing position to reach for the remotes instead of playing with her toys. Tsk tsk... This baby is a handful, can't take my eyes off her! I guess baby-proofing begins now!
