Stitches

Hayley got stitches.  She is our first child to get stitches, although there may have been other injuries that should have had a stitch or two.  Brock was holding her arms back behind her, while they were standing on the wood floor, and they both slipped.  Brock let go and caught himself, but because he had Hayley's arms behind her back she couldn't catch herself.  She landed chin first on the floor.  I was picking up Ethan from school when it happened and when I got home she showed me and we hurried to the doctor before he went home (he stayed a few minutes late to stitch her up).  Hayley was a champ as she got her three stitches.  The doctor and his nurse were impressed by her calmness.

Hayley took these pictures of herself with my iphone.  She hated the bandaid and was so happy to have it off.  She still has a little red scar, I hope it fades, but a little makeup will hide it as she gets older.
