Nolan's first black eye

Well, it is official, we have a boy. Nolan got his first black eye this past week while at day care. Quite the shiner! We got a call that he had fallen into a bookcase while he was running, a small cut under the eye and a black eye. Apparently, he popped right back up and was running around like nothing happened. I'm not sure exactly where he gets that from, but I'm glad to see it never really slowed him down much.

Picking him up from day care that night was quite the shock, but he has been a trooper. Both Laura and I have wondered when this was going to happen, as he is quite the adventurous type - climbing, jumping, running, falling... It was only a matter of time. Hopefully, he learns quickly that there are consequences, and starts to show a little restraint, but then again...he is only two and a half. Oh well...
