So we had our first “incident” with Evie the other day.  She was trying to stand up in the bathtub (no matter how many times I try to tell her…) and her feet slipped out from under her and she came down chin first on the side.  I quickly picked her up to comfort her, but I could tell it was a bad one.  She did the thing where she is so upset that she cries out all of her breath and then there is a long silence due to the fact that she is so upset she can’t breathe in, followed by a huge intake of breath and then the loudest scream she can manage.  You can judge how upset she is / how loud the scream is going to be based on how long the preceding silence was.  This one was so long that I tried reminding her to breathe, fearing that she was so upset she would forget to.  And when she let that one out, boy howdy it was a howler.  Sara didn’t come in because usually at that time of night when Evie is already tired, if Evie sees Sara and then Sara leaves, Evie can’t handle it.  So I was holding Evie and I looked down and saw that the shoulder of my shirt where her head was resting was bright crimson with blood.  I said, “Sara, I need you” in what I thought was a very calm voice but Sara later said that she could tell by my tone there would be blood (and not in the oil discovery, I drink your milkshake kind of way).  She had a lot of blood dripping out of her mouth and she wouldn’t let us see, but I’m guessing that her two teeth on the bottom cut her gums on the top.

Anyway, she recovered quickly and it didn’t require going to the doctor or anything, but it was still interesting.

In other news, I watched The Notebook the other day.  Between that and the cupcake place, I fear I am becoming a stereotype.
(Note that I would have loved to just embed a youtube video, but apparently NBC made sure none where out there.  Enjoy that commercial!)

One last thing, the folks over at Improv Everywhere have spun off a blog to coordinate all of the mayhem ensuing across the globe.  So go over to Urban Prankster to keep abreast of all the best “scenes” and perhaps participate if one comes up near you.
