Braedyn's Boo-Boo

Poor little man decided he would "superman" (aka jump full force in a laid out position) onto the couch.  Well, he mis-judged his flight and landed chin first on the corner of the couch--right on the frame.  Here was the result:

Yep--a nasty cut on his little chin.  So, off we went to the ER in our nasty, sweaty deck staining clothes.  Here is the little guy in the waiting room.  We waited for TWO HOURS!

Luckily there were games for Daddy to play! 

After finally being seen, the nurse left it up to us to decide if we wanted her to stitch it.  Poor Braedyn was hysterical at the word "stitches" so we decided to bypass the three stitches and just live with the scar.  Braedyn promised the nurse he would be careful, keep it covered, and let mommy wash it out and put medicine on it twice a day.

 Now he will match Mommy and Brookelyn with a "tough man" scar on his chin!
