Macie's new look


I have decided that Macie needs to wear Carson's batting helmet at all times. Here is a list of the injuries she has sustained in the last 18 hours.
  • 5 Pm Just as t-ball is about to begin, Macie is trying to sit in the bleachers and falls through hitting her head/back on the ground.
  • 6:30 PM Macie tries to crawl onto the bench of a picnic table at the end of season t-ball party. Some how she fall under the table again landing on head on the concrete. She really scared a lot of parents with this one.
  • 7Am While eating breakfast, Macie fall out of her chair. This time she says she just hurt her leg
  • 9AM I am holding a dumb bell trying to show Jeff something when Macie turns around and runs into it with her eye. I am hoping it won't be black in a few hours.
  • 9:20 AM We are seeing Carson off to school when Macie falls on the sidewalk and skins both of her knees. This offically covers both knees with scrapes at different stages.
In addition to her physical injuries she seem to have a little bit of croup. Since she gets the barky cough so often we can treat it. After one dose of Prednisone, her cough already sounds much better.

Basically, I think I need to find a padded room for her to live in. She is constantly getting hurt. The scraped knees are one thing, but I hate that she falls on her head so often. It really is a regular occurance. I would hate to see a cat scan of her head. Fortunately, she always hits the back. And, from the research I have done, the back and front of the head are the safest places to hit it. I am still sure we will end up in the ER at some time with her.

Poor Macie. Maybe gymnastics will help her balance. That's what I keep telling Tom about Megan. :^) We'll see.
