1 Toe

Sunday morning. 7 am. I am asleep. Evan is asleep. Liliana is crying. I get up - and when I say "I get up" - I mean, my body gets out of bed, and my eyes open - but I sleep walk! lol Anyway, I go into Liliana's room and give her a paci, lay her back down and tell her it is too early to be up - go back to bed. And she does...so I go to leave and STUB MY FOOT ON THE DOOR FRAME. It was one of those stubbed-so-bad stubs that no scream came from my mouth. I just dropped to the floor and grabbed my foot.

Once I can let go of my foot to see what is going on - now remember, I am sleeping and now in shock and shocking bad pain - so my sight is not too clear, plus I do not have my glasses on. I look down and see on the top of baby toe a very strange looking blood blister.

I think it is amazing that there is this big ole door frame and one foot - but only one tiny toe got hurt.

I crawl into the bathroom and look again...now my sight is working a little better and I realize I am bleeding. Grand. I cut my toe. The tip of my toe - as if I was trying to take the tip of my toe off. The good news - I think that when I grabbed my foot, I pressed the flap of skin in place. So I meekly call Evan's name...and ask him to come bandage my toe. I was not sure how I was going to bandage the tip of my toe without using numerous band-aids and have it look hideous...and I would have to make sure the toe next to it stayed out of the way so a band-aid could be put on.

So my hubby put a band-aid of me, of which he did a really good job...and brought me the boo boo pack that we use for Liliana...thanks dear. He did actually bring me regular ice though.

So back to bed I went!

My toe is healing nicely! And Liliana slept until 9am that morning!
