Goose Egg

Raleigh cracked his forehead on the couch tonight. He was doing a little dance, and banging his head against the soft cushion of the couch when he missed the soft cushion part and hit the hard board back of the couch.

I tried to get a picture but my camera's battery was dead. He really looks like he has a goose egg on his forehead...ok....maybe just a robin's egg. But it's enough to warrant a few tears from mommy too! I felt so bad for him. The only thing I could do is hold him. For the rest of you moms (and dads) out there, on the scale of ouchiness, to give you an understanding....from the moment of the contact with the back board, I didn't actually hear Raleigh cry for about 6 seconds because he was holding his breath ...he was in such pain.

If there's any remainder of a bump tomorrow, I'll try to get a picture. I'm just hoping that he wakes up in the morning with no sign of that ouch moment.
