Adam got his first skinned knee yesterday. Now, if you touch his knee, he looks at you with Bambi eyes and says, "Owie." It was actually great timing, because right after he did that, we took Nicole's band-aids off where she got shots, and the spots were still a little red and sore. He immediately caught on that she had "owies" and tried to be more gentle with her. (We tried all day Friday to convince him that she was sick, to no avail.) Of course, now she goes after him when he's on the floor and they roll on each other, head-butt, play-bite each other, and generally giggle. I often find myself using a phrase familiar from my childhood.. "if y'all don't stop that, she's going to wind up getting hurt..."
