You'd think that it was the couch jumping that caused Plum's fat lip.
Or the car races we had this morning. Or the two poured out sippies of juice on the kitchen floor.
But you'd be wrong. Those are old hat. She can navigate a juice spill.
So after a good morning workout  running outside, we came in for a photo shoot. Which has nothing to do with the story except for that I wanted a reason to post these.
Then we started the serious business of Bed Falling. A game made up by these two crazy kids.
Bed falling is basically hitting the wall with your hand or a hair brush and then falling backwards, plank style, onto the bed. You know what? I'll just show you. And yes, there is a disembodied Big Bird on the wall. From the days I believed wall stickers were a good idea. I'm smarter now. Oh and please note my amazing skills at keeping the bits off camera. That's two years of practice right there.
Bed falling didn't produce a single injury.

Then we read some books. Chilled out. Sang some songs and got ourselves calmed down in time for lunch. But that's when things got dangerous.

Plum tried to walk out of the room. And it didn't go well.

The lip got fat. She stood up and was pissed. She yelled at me. Perhaps she believed this was my fault. Blood pouring out of her mouth. I dropped my phone and tended to her. So no carnage pics. 

Two popsicles and a Hot Wheels boo boo ice later, she was good to go.

Ready to start being dangerous again. Because it's official now. She a badass.

Bed falling!! Too funny.
Poor Plum. Looks like a heckuva fat lip.
So, are you just gonna invest in more band aids now that she's a badass stunt baby??

Oh it is! It's even more swelly now. But she's taking it in stride. I do believe more bandaids will be needed lol She is fearless and not anywhere near as coordinated as she needs to be for that kind of risk taking lol

Poor baby! At least it was fun for some time!! :))

Of course it was your fault! How could you suggest such wild and reckless activities as walking out of a room to a child so small? You're supposed to keep her doing safe things, like bed falling and couch jumping!

Ohhh, look at that lip!!! So precious and badass at the same time. :)

She totally looks like she could kick my butt! My nephew played bed falling awhile back and cracked his head open on the headboard. My, head injuries bleed a lot!

Wow. That is a beaut. Poor thing must have really tumbled. That falling onto the bed is too cute. Reminds of those Lipton Iced Tea commercials -- but that is really dating myself.

How cute is she?!?!?!? She definitely looks like a badass, would not want to mess with her ;) That last pictures is just priceless!
