When Babies Attack!

Lauren, Lolli and Violet were sitting on the floor playing today. Lolli and Violet were facing each other but out of reach of each other. Then Lolli decided she would turn around and go get a toy. No sooner had she gotten on her hands and knees facing away from Violet, then Violet reached out, grabbed Lolli's foot, brought it to her mouth and bit it HARD! Lauren had never seen Violet move that fast, EVER.

Lolli started screaming like she'd never screamed before. Lauren swooped her up, checked really fast to make sure Violet's teeth hadn't broken the skin (they didn't, thankfully) and then went to work getting Lolli to calm down. Zach had been working upstairs so he came running down when he heard Lolli screaming and Lauren shouting, "Oh my GOD!" It took a good 5 minutes for Lolli to stop crying. It was so sad.

Now Lauren has a lot of guilt for Lolli getting bitten, but Zach has been reassuring her that kids bite and there was nothing Lauren could have done to prevent it. Hopefully Violet realized that Lolli doesn't taste very good and doesn't do it again :(
