Jack the dare devil!!!

Well, we had quite the scare yesterday.

We had our great friend Christine, and her 9 month old son Canaan over to play in the afternoon. Jack was goofing around with Canaan, and was on his knees leaning over the side of the recliner. Next thing I knew, Jack fell head first onto the floor, with his neck bending the other way. I had been holding Maggie, and immediately set her down to pick up Jack. He was unable to lift his head and his eyes were rolled back in his head, and he was obviously unconcious! The most terrifying moment of my life! He also had a bulging vein out of his neck - which we later learned is very common with concusions.

I immediately screamed to Christine to call 911. By the time the paramedics arrived Jack was able to hold up his head, but was still a little out of it. They checked him out, and gave us some instructions for watching him the rest of the night. He was fine.

However, being the paranoid Mama I am, I took him to the pediatrician today for a double check. And, he's completely good to go. She even commented on how advanced he is in his motor skills, she also commented on how active he is :)

We are just beyond thankful that our little man is ok. Also, thankful that our wonderful friend Christine was here to help out. Again, it was the scariest situation I have ever witnessed - especially as a Mother.

Do you think we should get him a helmet to wear at all times??? :)
