Black-eyed Willie



Hey everyone, I realize this isn't an entirely pleasant story, but there is a certain amount of humor in it. Basically Will walks all over the place now (about a week ago he decided to full-on commit to walking as his primary mode of transportation), so he is not only more fall-prone, but he also has further to fall. On Saturday he was happily toddling around the bathroom with his toothbrush and decided to throw it in the toilet. Then he was peeking into the toilet bowl to look at his accomplishment, and started reaching for the toothbrush, when he slipped on some toilet paper (which he probably unrolled himself). He fell and caught his eye on the side of the toilet, poor guy. We hugged it out, got him cleaned up and put a boo-boo bunny (ice pack for kids...and Erin) on it but he got a nice little shiner out of the event.


Here he's comforting himself by eating a banana peel.

In the video below you can see the eye a little better. It looks like Erin put some eyeshadow makeup on him.

Hey, Will, is that also "no, no, no" that we are hearing? Another fine milestone! I hope your eye gets better really soon. Can't wait to see you! Grandma Susan
