Ozzy's first set of Scrapes

Ozzy is quite an athlete and most of the time I'm very proud of it. I rarely see babies with the potential to play soccer at the age of one. He took his first fall last week which resulted to a bunch of scrapes on both his knees and a couple on his shin. He cried a bit.

We washed it and because it left a stinging sensation, I gave him one of his favorite snacks: pandesal. He bit on it like he knew it was good, but the expression on his face gave me the impression that he felt like he was chewing on a cardboard box. His legs were up the chair and he was very still except for the laborious chewing in his mouth and the sadness in his eyes. He looked at me, as if asking for an explanation.

Motherhood and lack of sleep.

My two year old is a big boy now and can entertain himself on his own. However, when he's awake, you have to be as well. Otherwise, there's going to be 16 kilos of baby bouncing on your face.
