Preston Mishaps-A Video

Well Preston has become that rough and tumble boy! Yesterday at day care he slipped into a chair cutting his lip on the inside. Apparently I was not notified since there was no first aid other than TLC and an ice pop needed. That is actually a nice reprieve. His old day care called if he got a splinter which annoyed me because there is nothing I could do. Here, unless there is biting (either the biter or the bitee) or a facial injury on the outside of the face (not inside the mouth-unless of course a tooth is chipped), there is no call. Seriously I don't need a call regarding a scraped knee. My biggest concern was that his tooth was intact. I was already calculating his dental bills and thinking that I should have extended my dental coverage after leaving WEMED, when it was determined (my me and my dental degree) that his tooth was indeed fine and intact.
Today after Hanna left (which cracked me up because Virginians getting ready for this storm was about as ridiculous as New York City preparing for a dusting of snow), Preston and I spent the afternoon outside. He hit the curb on his ride on toy and went over the handlebars. This kid is so good with knowing how to fall, I think about when Cat thought Owen could be the next Wee Man and I am thinking perhaps Preston is on the same path. Crying lasted all of 20 seconds, followed by two minutes of crazy mommy checking his teeth again (I don't think I will allow hockey as he matures). He spent the next hour after that running, playing with his toys outside completely unfazed.

He also received his lunch at Friendly's reward for sleeping in his bed the whole week! No camping. Although he has rejected his pillow. I would say maybe it is a neck thing, but whenever he sees pillows on the floor he dives right in. Strange child. :-)

Here is a Preston video-please excuse the blatant booger hunting-he has really taken a liking to picking his nose. Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
