Poor baby





This past Sunday was just like any other. We got home from church shortly after four and we were getting ready for company and dinner. So Hannah asks were her milk it and sees it. Then THUMP! I thought she had just bonked her little head, after all she is two and clumsy. So she comes over to me crying. I immediately came to her rescue only to see blood gushing from her chin! The poor baby busted her chin open! She tries to convince me that she is all better and doesn't want to go to the doctors. My mother in law rushed over since she was a nurse and told me she needed stitches. So off to the ER we go. Yay! They put this ridiculous bandage on her head and I couldn't help but laugh my head off. I was trying not to let her see me laughing so she would not get upset, but I could not control myself and neither could the nurses. It was pretty funny looking and completely unnecessary! So after they kindly escorted me out so they could barbarically pin my baby down and do what they needed to do to contain the screaming, kicking, yelling two year old, they informed me that they used bonding glue instead so she would not have a huge scar. Hannah was so funny telling them off and then she realized that didn't work so she then asked for them to let her go, still didn't work. Then it got sad. She was crying, "Please let me go!" It was so sad but at least she kept her manners. 75 bucks later and some bonding glue we were all done. It was so dramatic and silly. I do feel bad that that happened to her but we had a good time in the ER. We made the best of it anyway. Hannah though I was so cool to take a glove and blow it up for her. She is still holding on to that "chicken balloon" and is walking around so funny. She won't open her mouth all the way to talk because of her band aid. It's hilarious! I love being a mom!

I am so sad for Hannah! We were frieking out last night because of the overwhelming amount of bandages on her head. (Scott sent over the little video at the hospital on Jason's phone.) We thought it was gonna be much more than a split chin but glad that it was only that - if that's any consolation! Glad that you guys are ok and that they were atleast able to seal up her chin with bonding glue instead of stitches!

Yikes poor baby! Well glad to hear you had a good time in the ER at least. ER experiences are never as good for us! That bandage is hilarious, I thought it was alot worse when I first saw it, but as I read down, it gave me quite a giggle! Hope she feels better soon.

That looked so scary at first! I thought I was going to have to fly out and see her. Poor girl though. She still looks so cute even with a huge bandage on her head. You guys are all so cute.
