It was bound to happen. Stitches! It was a Saturday morning everyone had just gotten up and Dave was bringing Laureli down the stairs. His feet slipped out in front of him and he landed flat on his tailbone (bruised it pretty good). Unfortunately, he dropped her and she hit her head on the molding. I scooped her up right away and she calmed a little but as soon as I handed her off to Dave (so I could get out of my pjs and he changed her diaper) she was upset again. Since her bag is always ready, it was easy to get out the door. Grab a quick banana and Laureli and I headed off to the emergency room. Luckily its only 10 minutes away. Once there the nurse put a bandage on it and gave her a mild numbing medicine.
A hour later we left with four stitches, a black eye and a mild concussion. It was a little traumatic for all of us. Thankfully she won't remember any of it. Wish I could say the same for us parents.
