Coffee Table + Head = 1 Staple

Waiting for the Dr.

Still waiting...having a little snack to pass the time!

The staple ~Day it was removed!

The day we left Kansas, Landon climbed on the piano bench to play a few tunes (something he had done ALL week)...in the process he fell back and hit the coffee table. I was aware that heads can bleed, but to see your own child's head bleed like crazy is a little unsettling. We got him in the tub to rinse all the blood off and assess the situation. After investigation we decided to take him to urgent care. They cleaned it up really well and put one staple in his head and one in his stuffed animal so that we could see what it looked like. Landon is one tough boy...he cried right after he hit his head but then he was completely fine and acted as if nothing had happened. The Dr. and nurse were even shocked/surprised that he did not cry or fight the cleaning/stapling process. We took him in one week later and had it removed and all is well!

Aaawww, poor Landon! I can't even imagine having to take Tristan or Parker to the doctor for a staple to be put in their head!!!!

You have to be tough to be a mom of a boy! I think you're both troopers!
