Yesterday we ended our 3 1/2 year stretch of no injuries requiring medical attention. I was in the shower thinking that I should have the phone closer in case daycare called because Jacob has been coughing a lot. So I got out of the shower and Nate was calling to tell me to go get Jacob... but not because he was coughing, because he fell and they said he needed stitches. Talk about mothers' intuition! So I rushed to get ready and was pulling out of the driveway when I realized that I didn't have a car seat! Luckily we still had an extra one so I put it in the car and was off. I took a chance with Urgent Care, hoping we could get in faster... straight into a room, no waiting!
All cleaned up waiting for the numbing liquid to work and for the doc to come stitch him up.
He required 6 stitches after it was all said and done. He was very brave and never screamed. He said ouch as the needle went in but was able to stay distracted with me reading him books.
As we were leaving he said he had fun! This could be trouble!! (I think he liked all the attention.)
