Flying Trapeze Baby.

I had one of the scariest moments in my young parenting life today. Emily has gotten really good at climbing stairs. The isn’t quite as good at going down, but she only ever wants to go up anyways. Tonight while we were going upstairs to get her ready for bed she climbed up the stairs really fast and I stopped for a second to throw something into the entrance way. She got ahead of me and looked down and giggled. Then she fell backwards. She sat down on the next step and went into a roll and did a back flip and was flying through the air when I caught her. She didn’t even cry. It scared her pretty bad, but she didn’t hurt her self. I guess even at a young age she has super falling skills just like her mom. I never thought that all those years of being a Goalie in soccer, catching things that fly at my head, and my insanely weird reflexes would come in handy. I caught her with her upside down and flying through the air . It was crazy. I burst out laughing. Then I started to cry. Crazy adrenalin rush.

Only 3 days left until Relay for Life. I’m getting excited about it. I got some stuff for banners and Ill put those together hopefully tomorrow. I’ll try and take some good pictures on relay day. I’ve got a few ideas for the luminary walk. I think I might be able to take some really good pictures. I got a couple of good ones before. I think I’ll post one that I photmanip’d two years ago. It’s still my favorite. I have yet to find a babysitter for a big portion of the day. Hope I find one tomorrow.

I have to go chill for a bit. I’m still running off the adrenalin so I need to go relax and drink some Iced rooibos( always a staple in our fridge now).

*Ok and to top it all Emily fell down in her crib and smacked her head and so we had to start our night time routine all over again. I hate going back into her room after we put her to bed. *
