I took Tanner for a walk trying to get him ready for trek. We were going to walk 4 miles. Kiersten wanted to come, too, so I took my cell phone, thinking that when she got tired, Brittany could come and get her. Well, we got as far as the church (2 blocks) and I was walking a little ahead of Tanner to keep him going. I heard him fall behind me, and I looked around and he was face down on the asphalt. He had been carrying a stick, and he tripped and didn't catch himself with his hands. He face-planted and he was all bloody and screaming. He banged up his face and his knee. We called Brittany to come and get us, iced it, etc. We called the pediatrician down the street when his nose started to swell, but he didn't have a broken nose. He did throw up once, but the doctor said that once was okay, and if he did it again we should take him to the doctor.
This is Tanner the first day; he likes to say he was fine on the one side, it was the other one that was bad. He wanted a mask like Phantom of the Opera.

I still can't believe that happened from taking a walk with his Mom! I hope he milked it for all it's worth. The whole trek thing was so dramatic....
