Ethan's Owees

PLEASE START AT THE BOTTOM The day after. 13 stitches and minus one of his front teeth. Life gets really interesting trying to find soft foods that don't have milk in them. The fun never ends.
The funky expression is mainly from the medicine they gave him so he couldn't fight while they stitched him up. It didn't end up working for him, and they had to put him out. Not fun for mommy.

We were at the hospital for 6 hours. This is how we passed a lot of our time. The little cast thing on Ethan's arm is covering his IV so he wouldn't mess with it. He was not impressed with that at all.

These are pics from our exciting day a month and a half ago or so. Ethan and Joel were jumping on the bed. Long story short, Joel bounced Ethan off head first and he landed on a wooden desk. Going up, the first pic Ethan has tape over his chin with numbing gel on it, but you can still kind of see one of the gashes. I don't know if you can enlarge the pic or not, but you can kind of see his tooth that is sticking straight out in his mouth.

Bless his little heart, how that must have hurt. It looks absolutely awful! I thought Arthur had a lot of bumps and knocks growing up, but nothing quite this bad. His front tooth got broke in half once, took a while to get that all fixed properly. You never know with children! Hang in there-it should get better.
