Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

Sebastien has been finding his feet in China and this has been a little concerning when he is determined to explore concrete steps on his own. Daddy was playing soccer when Sebastien fell down some steps at Xia Da with this result:More recently in May, we were all set to explore a new park on the weekend - Alex was very excited. We caught the bus - Sebastien now demands his own seat on the bus. We walked through the train station forecourt towards the park when Sebastien tripped and fell headlong into the leading edge of a concrete step at the train station. We caught a taxi home to get some ice on his bump fast. Alex was upset that the trip to the park had been postponed.The only way to get him to sit still to apply the ice was to turn on Thomas the Tank Engine which Alex enjoyed too.The resulting goose-egg was concerning and reminded Mummy of Alex tripping into the edge of the study desk leg the first day of Aunty Chelle's visit in C-U (at almost the same age to the week in late October 2007). Thankfully Sebastien's vomiting 15 hours later was as a result of eating food that didn't agree with him - though at 1.30am we were very close to heading to a hospital.
