Owie!

This afternoon Nick was pushing around one of the girls' little princess chairs. He came a change in the floor height. The chair stopped but he didn't. He toppled over the chair and hit is forehead on....something. Not sure exactly what.
The cut was pretty deep so I thought we better go visit the clinic in case it needed to be stitched. By the time we got there and got seen the cut had already started to heal, so the doctor asked me if I wanted him to reopen the cut so he could stitch it, or did I just want butterfly bandages. I opted for the butterfly bandages. He said if Nick was a girl he would probably go the other route just so she wouldn't have a scar on her forehead : )

Here he is in all his glory:




As you can see, the doctor gave him a sucker, so he was happy at the end! On top of the butterfly bandages the doctor placed a waterproof bandaid, and then he wrapped his head because of his huge goose egg. The wrapping was off before he was even finished with his sucker.

Poor little guy! Nicky needs a helmet with a face guard that you strap him into when he gets up in the morning!
In the last picture, he looks like a little prize fighter, with his swollen face. :(
Hopefully there was no issue with a concussion?
Give him hugs and kisses for us!
Love you!

He is just so darn cute...even with his head all wrapped up. It does need a bow though. Hope he heals up quick!
