Oh how scary!!!!!! Don't blame yourself though - it could happen to any one of us. It's always amazing to me that they wiggle like that...like they have no idea of the consequences. :blink: I've been carrying them and had them leap from my arms to the bed when they were still quite far away. Thank heavens she is alright, the little wiggleworm!!! (((((((Hugs)))))))))
I dropped Lacie

Whew! Good thing she seems to be sturdy! 
I (sort of) dropped Dora at the VETS office one time! I was trying to hold her and sign my bill (bad idea) and she was partly pinned agianst the wall for support. She ended up sliding down the wall! I sort of put my leg in the way to slow her down on her way down the wall so she didn't have a hard landing. I was just so embarrassed that the vet assistants all saw what an idiot I was! At least you didn't have witnesses.

Oh Lynn - I know that petrified feeling when something like that happens and you just wish you could take it back again. Not only can it happen to all of us, I really think that something like that has happened to all of us. Remember when Tyler leapt out of DH's arms from the sofa and "landed kind of funny" according to DH and was limping and I was in San Diego!!! I didn't blame him but know how wriggly they are, and strong willed and strong. Sometimes Tyler really struggles to go for or away from something and it's that split second. And I only have one fluff. Don't know how you all juggle multiples but this makes us pause and realize it just takes a minute. Happy you also didn't have broken glass to contend with.
I'm so glad Lacie's okay and in addition to the kisses and hugs Tammy mentioned, treats are always a crowd pleaser. And mommy needs a drink though I seem to remember you saying you don't. Lemonade, anyone? :hugging:

Sue - yes I ended up with broken glass on the floor and I was, of course, barefoot. But I just needed to get to Lacie. Didn't matter if I cut my foot -- just that Lacie was OK.
When I was 7, we had a very, very tiny Chihuahua. She jumped from my mother's arms towards my father and ended up hitting her head on the tile floor and died instantly. I was in the family room with them when this happened, so the possibilities are very vivid to me. So I guess it really scares me more than normal when something like this happens.
Now I'm glad that Lacie is 6 lbs and not any smaller.
