Quick trip to the ER

Today was such an awful day! It started out crappy. Its been raining for days now, and we just want it to be over! Mark came home to have lunch with Cameron and I. After we had all eaten, we were standing in the playroom talking, while Cam played with his toys. He was looking out the window at all the rain, and all of the sudden I saw him trip, fall and hit his head on his wooden play cube. Right on the forehead! Mark ran and picked him up to see a deep cut right in the middle of his forehead. I started crying immediately and couldn't even look at him. It was so sad to hear him screaming, but right when I took him from Mark he stopped. Other then the bleeding, he acted like nothing had happened. We could tell that he needed some stitches, so off to the ER we went. He did great at the hospital. They opted to glue it shut instead of stitches, so hopefully the scar won't be so bad. We were in and out in about an hour and a half, which made the process a little less traumatizing, but oh my goodness, I feel like an awful mother! I understand that things like this can happen, are even expected to happen, but at 13 months? He's still just a baby. I should be able to protect him from these things. Well, he is Marks son. What better way to show it then with matching scars?

Here we are waiting for the Novocain to take action so that the doctor could work on him, pain free!

Here he is after he was put back together. Happy as a clam. Nothing phases this boy!!

Once we got home with his new Handy Manny band aid, we let him lay on his bear and watch some TV before bed. It was a BUSY day!
Day 70
