So I finally did it. I fell while holding the baby.
It was Sunday, and I was carrying him back to the house after swinging outside. He was protesting and I slipped on the wet deck. If I hadn't been carrying him, I probably would have been fine. But instead of worrying about me, I just had one thought "Please don't hurt my baby!!!" And I ended up on the ground in a weird position with my ankle twisted abnormally.
So Baily is fine. At the time he was scared and cried for Daddy. (Apparently Mommy can't stay upright. I can't really blame the kid for wanting Daddy instead)
On the other hand, I messed up my ankle. I realized just how bad it was monday morning when Baily bumped his head and cried that "Oh God I'm hurt!" scream and I couldn't run to him. I had to crawl with my leg at an angle so that my foot never touched the ground.
I called my mom for help and she immediately drove into town to help take care of Baily. I've been on crutches ever since & mom has been a blessing. *sigh* Hopefully I'll be able to walk on it by the weekend. Lewis & I have plans! And we never have plans!!
