Ouch!
So about 5 years ago I bought these doormats that have been deemed “death mats”. I refused to get rid of them, they were perfect, we even got the rubber lining underneath, it didn’t help. We’ve had (and so have some of our house guests) a few slips and many near misses but tonight Noah took the cake. He walked on top of one and turned the corner and down he went. The poor kid wasn’t even running. Man, did he scream! As with most wounds you can’t really see the extent right away. As soon as the tears stopped it was pretty obvious though. Our son looks like he’s trying to become a unicorn. Maybe I should toss the mats now, that is after I accept my Mother Of The Year Award. Yikes!

OMG dead center! Poor baby! Don’t worry about handing in the Mother of the Year award, the good news here (if you can have good news) is that there was no blood!

OUCH! I am with both commenters, tho. At least there was no blood and he is a darn handsome little unicorn. I hope its feeling a lot better today!

Poor Noah!! That is quite the “egg” he has there. I’m sure it wasn’t easy on mommy either

I deserve the bad mommy’s friend award, then!! First thing I did when I saw poor Noah’s picture was laugh. I’m sorry. It brought me right back to that day when Peyton hit her head on the corner of your sliding glass doors!!! I’m glad there’s no blood, either. Definately either get rid of the mats or add some extra non slippy stuff to them!! xoxo
