Ouchie :(
Friday night before bed, the kids were playing on the stairs when Aidan tripped and hit his head on the wooden part of one of the stairs (I think...Avery is the only other witness and she's pleading the fifth). It wasn't a huge gash, but bled like crazy for a few minutes. I called CareNow first but they recommended I take him to the ER, go figure! Daniel stayed home with Avery, and Aidan and I left for the hospital (by this point he was fine and back to his chatty self). I packed plenty of toys because I was sure it would take forever, but we were only in the waiting room maybe 20 minutes (then another 45 minutes or so with the nurses and doctor). It was a good visit and everyone was great with Aidan. Instead of stitches they used a glue called DermaBond which seems to work great. Now he matches his friend Tate, who got a similar injury a few weeks ago at MDO. It helped because we were able to talk about how the doctor had made Tate's head feel better too. Aidan's Great-Pa (my grandfather) also got a head gash a while back too. I guess this means they never grow out of it? :)
