Baby's First Fall

We all know babies fall a lot. It's just a part of learning to walk and get around. Unfortunately my poor Bear had his first fall at 16 weeks old (one week shy of 4 months). :'[

This was at 7 AM on April 25th. I put him in his car seat that was sitting on the couch. I took some cute pics (see below) and then went to wake up Anthony. I did not buckle him in because he is not mobile enough to get out by himself yet and I was really scatter brained as it was 7 AM and I was late for work and not to mention really tired. I expected Anthony to buckle him in but I did not tell him to. After making a quick breakfast (as in 2 minutes) we were ready to go.

Anthony did not however look before he picked up the car seat and when he did Bear fell out onto the floor! He cried for about 3 minutes and then was fine. We were going to take him to the doctor and I even took off that morning of work to go but once we called them they told us the doctor was not there today (bogus! really what kind of doctor's office can run like that?!). So since he was acting fine, eating fine, smiling, playing, etc. we decided that he was fine and did not need to be rushed to the ER. We will continue to watch him and make sure he is ok and if he shows any signs of not being ok, off to the hospital we will go!
