The Fall
Alright, so Kayson finally mastered the walking at 15 months! It's so crazy cause he could walk since like around one but he was always nervous to let go. So he has had 3 months of perfecting it. 2 nights ago he finally let go and is now a professional. He almost runs! Of course for some weird reason I haven't gotten any pictures of him walking but....I have pictures of the traumatic aftermath of his first big fall. He was cruising around in my mom's living room, fell forward and snagged the corner of the side table with the inside of his upper lip. I picked him up and blood was running down his chin out of his mouth. We ran into the bathroom and my mom got a towel, wet it and held it to his lip as much as he would let her. He wouldn't calm down, just cried and cried. So I walked him outside and of course he stopped crying cause he loves being outside. It kept bleeding for quite some time but not bad. He is doing good, his teeth are still in place and it seems to not bother him a whole lot. He did rip the inside muscle that holds the gums and lip together pretty deep, but all in all he is in good spirits. Surprisingly it hasn't stopped him from walking all over the place.

This picture is after we calmed him down and wiped the blood off, but you can see that it's all over the towel and his shirt. The pictures are in very bad lighting so obviously Jesse took them...Just kidding Jesse, our camera is not the greatest. They don't show how bad it really was, his lip swelled and blood in his mouth for 30 minutes. But you get what you get right!
