Stitches!


Yesterday I was getting Ethan out of the highchair and he dove at the dog and slipped out of my hands and hit his head on the tile.  The poor boy has 2 big bruises on his forehead.  While I was trying to comfort him Chloe came in gushing blood.  She was outside playing with all the kids and pushing a car around.  She slipped and hit her chin against the cement.  We ended up taking her to the doctor last night and she had to get 3 stitches.  The place we took her was really great with kids, thanks to Emily for the great recommendation.  She got to watch a Barbi princess movie while they were stitching her up and they gave her a doll to take home when it was all over.  This is my first time having to take my kids in for injuries, but I am sure it won't be the last.

I'm glad she's ok. That stuff is always scary. Luckily there where more than enough people around to help out. I'm glad that place worked out. That's great she got a doll and to watch Barbie.

It's never just one thing at a time right? ALL the kids seem to get hurt at once! Ah the joys of motherhood...lol
