Sidewalk Two; Owen Zero

Monday night, Owen went on a walk with our neighbor to help her walk her dog.  As they turned the corner by our house, he was excited to see me and started running.  I'm not sure what exactly tripped him up (because he rarely falls), but he fell onto the sidewalk hitting his forehead.  Obviously in pain, he jumped up and took a couple more steps toward me, crying, and fell AGAIN!  This time, he scraped his cheek and knee.  I know he felt so horrible because he just kept crying (which is SO unlike him). He told me he was running to come see me, which made me feel worse!! But, he's a trooper! He's let me (and only me) put antibiotic oinment on his owie a couple of times a day.  I'm trying to make sure it doesn't dry and out and itch as I don't want him to scratch it. 
Here are some pictures of the 'damage.' 

About half an hour after it happened and he'd calmed down...

On this one, you can see the first hit on his forehead

This is Tuesday morning (ouch)

This is from this morning (Thursday)

This is for Owen.  He wanted me to take a picture of his outfit that he picked out (notice the orange and blue striped socks (his favorite) and cockeyed hat (which is truly how he wears it)).
