It's not eyeshadow...

Handley is so tough. She will fall down, scratch her knees, bump her head, or walk into a piece of furniture, and just keep on going. It really amazes me. Now that she is walking everywhere (and trying to run) she has lots of bumps and bruises. Sometimes I'll notice one and not even be sure when or how it happened. That being said, when she does cry about something, I know that she is really hurt. Last weekend she was walking around the bathtub (I know...not the best idea in the world, but you try to keep a mobile one year old sitting down during an entire bath) when she slipped and hit her eye on the side. She started crying and I immediately scooped her up. After she calmed down I looked at her eye and it was a big purple bump. Poor thing! As I put her to bed that night the bump had gone down a little, but the next morning when I got a good look it seemed as if she was wearing a nice shade of purple eyeshadow. This week we've gotten to see all sorts of eyeshadow colors on her...from purple, to blue, to green, and now a pretty yellow hue. Notice her right eye:

Aww, I'm sure mommy's kisses are helping it to heal.
