Behind the Boo


Bryson's nickname is Boo Boo for good reason. From the day he started moving, he was bumping into everything. I've never seen a kid fall down the stairs so much. He always had a bump on at least one side of his head. I was worried that something was wrong with him for a while, but the doctor said he was completely normal. hmmm
Anyway, as Boo has grown older he has found new ways to inflict pain on himself. Adam took all three boys camping last weekend and he managed to come home with poison oak all over his face and 2 ticks. The other boys were fine. Adam said Bryson was rolling around everywhere, so it wasn't a huge shocker. Sigh...gotta love the wild ones.

Interesting Bell Family Fact

It seems that every year, everyone in our family has their birthday on the same day of the week. Everyone, but me, of course! Adam's is this Friday; Grant, Friday June 13th; Bryson, Friday Aug 22nd; Josh, Friday Nov 28th; and Nona, Friday Jan 16th. Mine is on a Tuesday...sigh. At least I know to plan for weekend birthday parties.

More injuries


I guess with 4 boys in the house, I should start getting used to bumps, bruises, breaks, and such, but the sight of blood still makes me woozy.

Just this Sunday, Bryson came running to our pew from the foyer. I caught the words, "mommy...Grant...Blood!" and I was out the door. Grant tripped and landed forehead first into a brick corner piece of wall. All is well now, but man, head wounds bleed.
