Our First Trip to the ER with Grant:(

In the ER room waiting to get stitches with Mommy. He kept busy playing withe remote for the TV. He was so brave!
Still waiting for stitches!! His poor eye kept getting more and more swollen and black and blue.
The morning after-poor eye was almost swollen shut:( and 6 stitches!
On Saturday we went out for dinner in Town Center in SL. After dinner Grant was running around outside, tripped and hit his head on an iron bench. I picked him up right away and held him for a few moments until I looked at his face. I totally did not expect to see blood all over his face:( Of course I didn't have my diaper bag on me (it was with Andrew who was watching a football game inside a restaurant/bar). My friend Courtney ran to get me a towel and ice and I called Andrew in a panic to come. I then hit another car leaving the parking spot (Awesome job Mom! lucky it was little damage and just gave my name and number to the couple). We got in right away at the hospital, but then waited about an hour for them to do the stitches. He was such a trooper--he yelled at the Dr. repeatedly no and then got calm and told him he didn't like it and to stop. I couldn't help but to smile for a second while I was trying not to cry. It is no fun to listen to your baby in pain:( After it was over he was a new man and enjoyed his popsicle. He even told everyone thank you. Hopefully we will not have too many more of these visits to the ER!!
