Jacob's First Hickey

Last night we had things to do and had to put Jacob down, despite strong objections that he loudly voiced. He flipped himself onto his stomach immediately and cried. After a few minutes, he had calmed himself by sucking on his arm. He totally went to town on it and when we picked him up ten minutes later, it was BRIGHT red. A half hour later, we saw the damage he had done. He had a huge hickey. His wrist was bruised so deeply that it was bright, bright redish purple in the chubby crack. The bruise goes half way up his arm and is still very visable this morning. It makes me smile everytime I see it.
