Stitches

Not even two and he has his first stitches!
Em didn't see Ammon and accidently knocked him over and he hit his head on the coffee table. 2 stitches to his right eyebrow. Yes he cried. Yes he settled down very quickly once he noticed 'Bo On The Go' on TV. Yes I wasn't going to be brave enough to take him to A&E myself, so yes Nate took him. Thank goodness. They had to wrap him in a sheet so they could restrain him enough to do the stitches. Nate said he cried a bit, but I think he was sparing my feelings. If the girls had been there they would have gone ape, they just hate watching a sibling suffer.
But he's tucked up in bed now, with some antibiotics to take 3 times a day and maybe a small concussion.
Oh is this how it is with boys??? A taste of things to come? At least he matches his Daddy - Nate got stitches in exactly the same place but opposite eye. Boys.
