No More Monkies Jumpin' On The Bed!

Benson and Owen enjoy jumping on their beds.  They will usually end up pulling their matresses off and making a "bridge" with them.  It's quite annoying.  A couple Sundays ago, I was getting ready for church and I could hear them jumping.  I don't remember what Jeff was doing---probably preparing his primary lesson.  I yelled to the boys to stop, but do they listen? No!  I was running behind & I thought "well at least they're not buggin' me while I'm getting ready".  I know, I'm a great mom.  A few minutes later I hear Owen crying pretty bad, and then Benson starts crying his scared/I'm in trouble cry.  I tell Jeff to go see what's wrong. Jeff came quickly down the stairs holding Owen and told me to look at his head.


  When I saw the massive bump, I kicked it into gear and got an icepack.  My mom has a great story about how icepacks saved her from looking awful after a nasty trip she took.  It's a great story.  Anyways, back to Owen.  He didn't like the icepack, but he let us put it on there for a little while.  He stopped crying after a few minutes and seemed fine. 


I checked his eyes to see if he had any signs of a concusion.  Benson kept wanting to get in the pictures like we were all having a fun photoshoot. 

I felt awful.  You can still feel a little of the bump today.  It happened 2 weeks ago.  I wonder if there will be any permanent damage.  A small bump forever?
