Now that Ava is scooting around the house, it makes it hard for us to sometimes keep track of her. Well, we were trying to clean the house, and Ava was getting into all sorts of trouble, so we improvised. What we discovered was a box (preferably plastic, as Ava would eat cardboard!) is a great way to keep Ava under wraps. Throw in a few toys, and bam, baby control! This, of course, was Dad's idea. Well, about five minutes into the box, and Ava decides to try and stand up. When she did, she fell and hit her mouth on the top edge, and cut her mouth. We heard her scream, ran over there, and saw blood all over in her mouth. This freaked us out a little bit, but after calming her down (a daunting task) and rinsing out her mouth and discovering the damage wasn't too bad, we were able to move on with the day. Next time, we'll opt for the cardboard box, even if she eats her way out of it!
