Boo Boo's

This is the most tragic story. We were all going to meet my mom for dinner at Jason's Deli. I walked ahead of Kevin and Emma to see if my mom was in the restaurant already. I turned around to lock the door of the van just in time to see Kevin tripping on the curb and falling to the ground while holding Emma. He tried so hard to roll her out of his arms so that he wouldn't land on her, but from my perspective it looked more like he threw her face first into the ground. I rushed over to her and scooped her up and she was still in the silent cry, you know what I mean. There was blood all over her mouth. My mom rushed out of the restaurant and I sent her to get a wet towel to wipe the blood off and some ice. Poor Kevin, he tore his pants and his knee was bleeding badly. When he saw Emma with blood on her face he immediately teared up and I could tell he felt horrible! After several minutes I was able to get Emma settled down enough that I could assess the damage. I wiped away the blood and found that she had busted open her lip and scraped her upper lip on the concrete. Luckily all her teeth were secure, that is what I was most worried about. She also had some road burn on ther left shoulder and forearm. It was tragic. She had been in such a fun giggly mood and then it was ruined. Of course it didn't help that I later pinched her finger b/w with highchair and the table. She cried almost the entire time we were in Jason's. So afterwards we took her to Target and bought her a small toy. I know, we shouldn't use bribery for good behavior, but we felt so bad for her.

Here is a picture of her the night it happened.
She also had a scrap on her left shoulder.

Here are some pictures the next day.

Kevin's Knee, ouch!
