Everett Scissorhands

Since the day he was born, you couldn't stop Everett from scratching his face up. I would put scratch mittens on his hands and 2 minutes later they would be off, so I gave up. I've got several photos just like this one. It seems no matter how often I trim his nails, he manages to gouge out and carve up his face. Luckily they heal quickly, but until he outgrows this phase I'll just have to look like a bad mom.

It's so sad when babies scratch their faces like that. Matthew already has a few scratches on his face too. Eventually Everett will stop scratching his face - but then he'll have bruises everywhere as he learns to walk, run & climb. It's a never-ending battle. :)

He is so cute even with scratches on his face. Hope all is well. My my opened her restaurant. Maybe we can meet there sometime and have lunch.
