Peach's Stitches

On Monday evening, after bath time the boys were playing as I chatted with Brandon on the phone. Chloe had used a pacifier in her first weeks and although she gave it up literally months ago, the little keeper cord that held it ( which was a large pink plastic flower ) was still hanging out in the bins where all her little things are stored downstairs. Jacob got it out and was goofing off. All of the sudden he starts to swing the little flower and it just nailed, and I do mean, nailed Ethan right below the lip. Blood was everywhere. I immediately hung up on Brandon ( sorry munchkin, I did call him from the hospital ) and tried to calm Ethan. After getting him all cleaned up I realized that this was a very deep gash. I called Brian, who came home from work and we took Ethan to the hospital. The process of stitching him up wasn't fun but he was very brave.
He got 3 stitches in right below the lip. Jacob was very sweet and of course, Chloe was a trooper thru all the chaos. She always is. We soon took our little tired brood home and tucked them all in. Now hours after bedtime. In the morning, they were all tired and Ethan is very proud of his little blue stitches.

if you look close in the right side of his mouth, there they are...the little blue stitches...amazing how something so little...yes, you know...LOL
