Bump Bump Bump

On Monday, my little man had a pretty major fall. We have wooden stairs up to our upstairs bedroom that he is obsessed with, and tries to climb every chance he can get. He's not even 8 months old and he's been climbing up these stairs for about a month. We have a door which is closed most of the time, so he can not climb them, but on Monday the door was open. I was taking laundry upstairs and he had just started his ascent, and I thought I'll get him in just a minute. I walked another stair up then turned to watch him fall down, thankfully, three stairs. He started crying immediately, as he had landed right on his cheek. So these pics on not for the week of heart. Here's my 8 month old son with his first black eye. He hit his cheek, but the bruise went right to his eye. It's painful for me to look at them. I'd like an eye patch to ease the mommy pain. Anyone have one? Oh, and I included a pic of the offending stairs. I hate these stairs right now, because I have fallen on them too, about 4 times. No, I'm not a graceful tall woman.
