Poor Ada!
This morning I noticed some blood on the outside of Ada’s booty, but I couldn’t imagine she’d been bleeding and figured it had more likely come off my horribly cracked Mummy hands.
However later on when I was changing her nappy, I found these scratches/grazes on the outside of her left leg
I’ve got no idea how it happened. She may have managed to do it herself with her fingernails, but I think it’s unlikely. Perhaps Linus did it accidentally with his nails at some point when he was trying to move her around? But there are quite a few marks there, so it seems like more than a single movement could cause. And one particular mark is very wide and couldn’t be from a cat’s claw.
I tried asking Linus, but the problem with that is… how can I put this?… He’s two years old. So clear, factual answers are a bit tricky to obtain. He did say “Linus did it”, but I think he was asking me rather than telling me, and I didn’t think pushing the issue would yield me any more reliable information.
So I don’t think I’ll ever know how it happened *sigh*.
Sympathetic Brother
When Ada cries, Linus often kindly says “Poor Ada!“. Recently, he’s also started saying “Ada need Mummy!“, and even “Ada need Linus!“.
Hiding
Linus can now open our hallway cupboard, and he loves opening and shutting it and playing with all the goodies it holds, like the vacuum cleaner.
The other day I walked past and, out of habit, pushed it shut. 20 seconds later I heard some muffled crying, and I eventually worked out that I’d shut him in! At least the way the cupboard’s set up he can’t shut himself in there, but I’m sure I’m in for many more such accidents when there are multiple mobile kids around.
