Our First Trip to the ER



Tonight Aiden made his first trip to the Emergency Room!
As he was running across the living room he stumbled and
fell face first into the wooden coffee table! Ouch!!
We have baby proofed every possible "corner" in the house
but didn't think to do the coffee table because it
is oval and has no pointed edges. Poor little guy screamed
and screamed!!!! Daddy got to him first and applied pressure
while I grabbed a wet rag. It immediately started swelling
and turning a vast array of colors so I thought maybe he
had broken his nose. So... off to the ER we trekked!
Thankfully the x-ray indicated nothing was broken! Yeah!
The Doctor said both of Aiden's eyes would probably be
"black" tomorrow. We are thankful it did not need stitches!
It could have been much, much worse and we are thanking God
that he was not seriously injured!
