Aly's owies

So this was a tough week for Alyssa. This last weekend it was super nice and so Doug, Alyssa and I went to the pool. Aly was having a blast running around until she fell on the cement and skinned her knees...poor girl. Then on Tuesday Doug took Aly to the park while I was at a young women's activity and she tripped on the sidewalk and did a face plant with the cement. The sidewalk won again and poor Alyssa had a fat lip that got cut and little scraped chin. So sad! I only saw the aftermath once Doug cleaned her up, but there was plenty of evidence from her injury all over her shirt. Stain stick is a marvelous and wonderful invention.
On a side note, when Alyssa gets hurt and you try to pick her up and comfort her she starts hitting you. I guess she feels she needs to make you hurt as much as she is hurting. Makes it hard to comfort a child when they're hitting you in the face.
