An Evening in the ER

Just after I started getting dinner ready Sammy fell and bumped his head on the bookshelf. Nothing new, but he hit the sharp corner in just the right spot. After panicking for a moment I called Zan and told him we were headed to the hospital. I could tell it would need stitches. He was such a good boy though. He didn't cry very much and didn't seem to notice the cut on his head.

We were only there about 1 1/2 hours. He didn't like being held down to get the stitches, but other than that he was just fine and doesn't seem to notice. He needed 6 stitches. Of course I had scheduled his 1 year photos next week. I think I'll reschedule them. He is now sleeping peacefully in his crib.

In other news, I brought in Ella's little horse for Sam to rock on. He really likes it. Ella has been doing a lot of coloring/drawing lately too. I think she really enjoys it at school. I took a picture of a picture she made for me. The orange person in the lower left hand corner is Grandpa. Grandma is next to him in pink. Nana is in yellow and I'm next to her in the right corner in blue. Sammy (the little guy) is above me in black. Zan in in blue on the top and Ella is to the left top in orange. She even signed her own name. We were both very impressed. She has drawn pictures for Grandma and Grandpa and Jill too. We'll have to get them delivered soon.

Hopefully we can have a laid back weekend here.
