Silas's ER Visit

Silas had his first trip to the ER for stitches yesterday :(  Poor little man fell on the back walk way and bashed his head pretty good.  He did not fall far but just happened to land perfectly on a little rock that was sticking up just enough to put a gash and gigantic knot on his forehead.  Luckily Mayme was here to stay with Noah while we rushed Silas to the hospital to get checked out (thanks Mayme)!  He did not have a concussion and ended up only needing one stitch but those head cuts sure do bleed a lot.  Silas was a rock star at the hospital, and we were very fortunate because we did not have to wait at all.  They took us right back and we were in and out in about two hours (a little different from the 7 hour adventure last year when Noah got his stitches)!
Waiting to see the doctor, he looks so scared and sad :(


Watching golf and waiting for the numbing cream to work its magic!

What a trooper! ER visits that are under 3 hrs are like a miracle, aren't they? So crazy. Glad Silas is doing well today :)

Oh man! Poor baby! I'm glad it was only one stitch though, what a trooper. I had to take Ben to the ER when he fell out of his crib, he broke his wrist. No fun at all. I have a feeling there will be many more trips to the ER in both our futures, boys will be crazy boys.
