That's How She Rolls

This morning was like many other mornings around the Allen house...me rushing around last minute not knowing what to wear. And I've really been thrown for a loop now that we're having these half cold/half warm days. When it's 40 degrees outside in the early morning hours and I'm freezing, I'm wanting to dress for the Chilly. However once the afternoon low 80 temps hit, I'm wishing I'd dressed for the Warm.

While I was sorting through this confusion of wardrobe choices, Moriah was happily playing on the floor at the foot of our bed with her toys. I'd occasionally ask her opinion but didn't get alot of input. As I ventured from my closet over to my dresser, I decided to put her up on our bed. She was a little whiny and tired, and she eventually just laid down right in the middle of our bed and sucked her thumb. I promised her I'd hurry and when I quickly turned around to dig in my drawer (to find the perfect, most professional t-shirt I could find), I heard a loud thump! I turned around in the blink of an eye and she was laying there on the floor at the side of our bed! She had quickly rolled over towards the side and apparently just kept rolling! Bless her heart, I think it startled her alot more than it hurt her, and of course it startled Mama as well! Thank goodness our bed is low off the ground and we have a carpeted floor and she rolled and fell horizontally, not vertically right onto her head. But still! I held her and told her I was so sorry. I called my friend Jennifer to see if she thought I should call the doctor and she didn't think so unless Mo started acting weird.

Well, lesson learned...She will NOT be placed on our bed anymore (or any other surface off the ground) unless I'm right there! and i think i may start laying my outfits out the night before...

Happy 9 months, Moriah! Mama is so sorry I allowed you to roll off the bed. I'm so glad you're ok and you had a great day today regardless. It seems like the John Deere Vibrating Corn Teether i found and gave to you this afternoon has turned out to be a pretty effective olive branch. Thank you for forgiving me!
