Klutz

Poor Levi keeps falling this week. He's turning into the biggest klutz. He tripped in our hallway, on Joel's blanket, and even in Sears - at least he didn't get hurt those times. He tripped running into our room and hit his head on the door frame. He tripped and split his lower lip open last night. Then he ran smack into his bedroom door - Joel was napping so the door was unexpectedly shut. Now, that time was actually comical, in an America's Funniest Home Videos sort of way. But the biggest one was when he fell off his kitchen chair and landed head first on the floor. It wasn't pretty.



Maybe he's having a growth spurt and just isn't used to how long his legs are. I think his feet are just running too fast for the rest of his body to keep up. All day long he's zipping around from place to place, like a typical preschooler. Often running in circles. I keep nagging him to slow down. Maybe we should play more outside where the ground is softer than our floors.

Ben says we just need to put his bike helmet on him. I say he'll be lucky to make it to his 3rd birthday next week in one piece. Poor little guy!
