Uh Oh!

{ADVISORY - contains graphic pictures!}

Our poor baby Ethan tripped last night and hit his forehead on the middle of a bench seat. He sure has amazing accuracy, because just like his spill in the Dojo last year, he hit it just right so as to cause a large gash. Derek & I were out of town with Evey finalizing the details of our new house, so Grandma had to call Heather and Grandpa and they rushed to help get him to Urgent Care. He only got five stitches, but as he had been through this before he was not happy having to get stitched up again. He was very calm before and after the procedure, but he threw quite a fit when the doctor brought out the needle. It was made all better though when the nurse brought him a sucker and some Spiderman stickers. Buki was very brave, and we are so happy that he is okay. He did well today, and he will be getting the stitches out on Monday.
Since we didn't get back into town until right after the procedure was finished, Heather documented it with the camera on her blackberry.
Calm and ready right before the procedure
Stitches are in...it was pretty traumatic getting them in, but all is well now
All's well that ends well! Buki was all smiles after having his sucker and getting some things that grandpa picked up for him on the way home, like car band-aids, a 'Cars' sticker book, and Transformer fruit snacks.

I still haven't recovered...I think I may need to have my kids in plastic bubbles at all times! :)

If he is lucky he will have a really cool scar to talk about the night he put some dude in the hospital.
