Little Bruiser...

So these pics don't REALLY do it justice,

but Little D got his first-ever "Shiner" ...

.

.

Yeah...

He somehow rolled over the pillow barricade

and out of his new Big-Boy-Bed at about 4 am the night before last...

.

.

Thankfully, his roommate, Big Bro T, was a Hero and came running full-speed down the hall

to tell a still-sleeping Mom & Dad that D was "stuck".

And indeed he WAS really quite STUCK!

It took even ME a few long seconds to unwedge him from the little crevice he had rolled into

(which, FYI, we are now packing with pillows at bedtime to prevent a recurrence!).

.

.

Well, as you can see here, THANKFULLY, there seems to be no permanent damage.

(Just the black-eye, which is already looking so much better!)

He woke up happy and smiling as ever

and hasn't hesitated for even a second about getting back into his new bed.

.

...Phew! (Because the crib will soon be re-occupied!)
