July has just been super hot and oppressive, as expected. We haven't gotten out much. Liam and I have been having a lot of fun at home, though, spending our days playing and reading books and having occasional play dates here. On Tuesdays, I've been going to a Bible Study at church, so Liam gets to hang out with his pals there.
As mentioned in an earlier post, Liam didn't do so well at his first summer play day at church. But yesterday, we went back again. I was needed to work, and Liam was a month older than the last time, so I hoped he would do better. And guess what? He did! He ate food, drank water, and even slept some. Go Liam! I did miss spending the day with him, though. One toddler is much easier to handle than ten, which is how many I spent the day with (along with an awesome co-teacher, of course!) I think now I feel good about working the three more play days I've committed to. Maybe his super cute lunch bag (that he totally picked out!) helped.

When we got home from the play day, Liam and I were both worn out, but he was wired as well and playing, but he wasn't very coordinated. Unfortunately, he tripped over his own feet and ended up falling and hitting his head on the wall. A big bump swelled up on the top of his forehead. Poor guy cried for several minutes, but then he was ok. I iced it as much as he would let me (not much), and ended up calling the pediatrician to see if we needed to bring him in since he hit right where his soft spot is or was. By then, Liam was playing and acting normal. He told me what to watch for, but said Liam would be fine. I was certainly rattled by it. I seriously never want him to get hurt! So that was his first bump on the head, and I'm sure it won't be his last. Thankfully, today I can't even feel the bump and there's only a small red mark. I guess he literally is hard-headed.
