Yesterday morning I slipped on our front porch and fell down the steps:
Pretty, huh?
One minute I'm getting ready for work - in a dress and tights no less - and the next I'm in a crumpled heap at the bottom of the steps with shoes and handbags strewn about and my neighbor (from 3 houses down) yelling in my direction, "Are you okay?!". awesome.
Thank God my shins and left knee broke the fall enough that I didn't land tummy-down or with too much of a jolt. Lincoln's been moving around just fine and everything I've read indicates that the trip was probably little more than a mild roller coaster ride for him. And, Levi's taking good care of me. Last night he rigged up an ice-pack/towel/elastic headband leg-cast contraption that stopped the throbbing enough that I was able to sleep. He's a sweet husband.
This morning, back in action, I won the battle with the porch steps (wootwoot). Here's to hoping that you too defeat any pesky stairs that you come into contact with this slippery season.

Holy bruises, Heather! I'm glad you're OK and that Lincoln's moving around OK and all that, but yowch, those still look like some painful bumps. Take care of yourself, girlfriend. :)
I am so sorry that you took a tumble. I'm ready for you guys to be here so I can love on you a little bit!!
