Sometimes You Need a Helmet

August 6, 2007 by Kathryn

Sometimes you need a helmet… to protect your head… when you fall over repeatedly… because your helmet’s too big.

    What else would you need a helmet for?

    Even though I subscribed to your blog, I still keep checking it every so often, and this time around I beat the subscription.

    I’ve got an almost two year old little guy who needs to wear Daddy’s helmet for the exact same reason.

    How funny! I’m glad other families have this same issue! 🙂
    I’m almost afraid to suggest this, but here goes!
    You know the solution? Get them a helmet that’s actually their size!
    That’s what we did @ our house. It works most of the time,
    except for when they BOTH want to where it @ the same time . . .

    Ok, this gave my husband and I a good laugh this morning!

    Your baby boy is so cute!

    Oooo, it’s Darth Vadar in his early years… I don’t thing you should be worried, though. Unless he takes to breathing a little differently…

    Well that is why I have a helmet. Is there another need for one? hmmm

    I love watching kids in motorcycle helmets. I remember watching a kid fall over backwards one time… oh that was a good laugh 🙂

    Never know when one my need a little extra pading for the head.
    I saw your blog from Sharon “Rocks in my dryer” and “blogher” someday I would like to attend a blogher and also I notice there is a Seattle Mom blog button on the left hand side and maybe Seattle will host a blogher.

    When my boys were this age, I vaguely remember the pediatrician saying something like “if they didn’t have bumps on their heads, I’d worry”. Helmets may have come in handy.

    I got the pickled pig feet award. I didn’t even notice the Seattle Mom thing, then I had trouble finding it eventhough I knew it was on the left hand side. It’s good peppylady pointed it out, otherwise it could have been months before I noticed. Yes sometimes we all need a helmet.

    After three head bumps today, I would seriously like to know if they make helmets big enough to just strap the boy in and roll him from place to place. Anyone, anyone?

    We had this exact scenario in my home this week. I guess it isn’t as odd as I thought!

    This reminds me of comedian Brad Stine and his “Put a Helmet On” DVD. He is an awesome Christian Conservative comedian.
