Cora the Climber got herself injured for the first time tonight. After learning that James' boat shelf (which hangs above his blue bookshelf) contained a treasure chest, Cora decided she needed to investigate. She climbed the blue bookshelf (which is securely attached to the wall, thank goodness) and reached up to pull on the boat shelf, which came tumbling down, it's contents in tow. Luckily, she seemed fine within 3 minutes (the screaming/crying and bleeding stopped - we think she was more scared than hurt) and it's a very small puncture wound (it was just a lot of blood, as head wounds tend to produce). James' treasure chest, pirate piggy bank, and boat shelf were less fortunate though... And I'm pretty sure Jay and I grew some new gray hairs tonight!

| After a wound cleaning by daddy (while mommy helped hold the ice pack) we were able to see that it's really just a small cut (and not too deep), the bruising wasn't too bad, and there was almost no swelling. It could have been so much worse. Thank goodness it didn't hit her eye (and we're pretty sure it was the treasure chest that hit her head and not the heavier boat shelf). |
