Halloween Party and Anthony's Horrible Accident

We had what started as a great fall weekend. Saturday we went shopping to get new boots, sneakers and stuff and then went to what Anthony calls "Daddy's big Park" for some strange reason he thinks his father built this park...wonder where he got this idea from? The kids played for hours here and I was in awee of their communication skills with other kids - I could really watch them all day. One example is 3 kids where in the tube and one says "we're driving" Paulie and Anthony respond at the same time "No-No my Mommy and Daddy drive" Anthony is constantly telling Paulie "Over here Paudee". Just love em!!
Sunday we went to another Park and was doom day! Anthony fell and hit his face on a wood box. he got a major bruise on his face and gave me a silent cry/scream (any parent knows this one) and shook - I grabbed him as fast as I could (although it felt like hours to get to him) and ran him to my car. I was ready to go the ER but pulled myself together and put an ice pack on him (yes I had one in the car) and cleaned it with water and then put Neosporin on it (yes I had that too) gave him a lollipop, a little Motrin and he was better. I'm still numb and can't breathe, seriously cried myself to sleep. Thank God I had Paul with me because I don't know how I would of handled this alone with Paulie still in the Park. Paul also made me feel a little better by saying thank God he didn't break his nose or need stitches. Its going to take me a while to get over this one - maybe never.
The boys had Victoria & Christopher's Halloween party that I wasn't sure if we should still go to. I gave it some time and Anthony really pulled foward, so we went. He really played fantastic as if nothing ever happened and had a great time. CLICK HERE FOR PICS.
