We got home yesterday evening from our very wonderful 3 days up North. Denny and Hannah rode their bikes to the store to grab some dinner while Ethan and I enjoyed a little cat nap. Denny and Hannah whipped up a delicious dinner; steak, mushrooms, baked potatoes and corn on the cob. Hannah was heading to the table and Ethan was climbing down from the counter to join her and he must have slipped. He hit his head on the corner of the bar stool on the way down. At first I did not know this, I turned around when I heard him crying ran over to pick him up and felt the trail of blood run down my neck. This was SOOOO SCARY. Our Ethan is very accident prone but it typically does not include blood. The dinner sits on the table and we pile in and head straight to the Emergency Room. He only cried for about 5 minutes afterward and kinda looked at us like what's the fuss... We got to the emergency room and he settled in with a bag of chips and a root beer. He is very happy at this point and his head has pretty much stopped bleeding. He ended up getting 4 staples, the wound was pretty deep. We couldn't really assess it since it was bleeding so much. He was unbelievably brave. Cried just a little when they held him down to clean the cut and give him the lidocaine shots. He said ouch, that hurts.
