Run CMB Run... No wait, please walk

So a lot has happened since I last blogged. J and I went to a conference and San Diego, meaning we had to leave CMB with his grandparents (it's nice that both sets are in the same city). We determined that it was the first time that at least one of us was not with him overnight. And we were separated for a week. It's okay, it was harder on us than him.

Some other news is that CMB is sick of walking, he's now running (for lack of a better word, he mostly falls forward quickly and his legs sometimes keep up). It made for an interesting trip to an Italian restaurant on Saturday. It was a new restaurant, so the kitchen and the wait staff was a little slow. After the appetizers, we took him out of his high chair because he was getting restless. He then used the restaurant to run laps for the next 20 minutes. When we tried to settle him down, we had a mini-meltdown. This might mark CMBs last trip to a decent restaurant for a while.

Moving faster now means you fall harder. Today, CMB was running in his classroom, tripped, and hit his eye on a table. I had to leave work to check on him. He was okay but he did have a split at the corner of his left eye.

This is my attempt to put some ice on it when it started to swell. I think it's pretty clear that j is the health care provider...
