Tough Boy

We went on a house hunting trip down to VA at the end of July and we took the boys with us so we could drop them off at my parents, so they could watch them. Well we had the boys for one night in a hotel and guess what happens? Preston cuts his face open on the edge of the coffee table!!! He was just learning how to walk, and so he was not steady to say the least. So an urgent care trip was taken by Dad and Preston that night.

Here they are waiting to get seen. I wasn't going to have Preston go to the urgent care, but the cut seemed to be fairly deep. 

Got it all cleaned out and put glue on it!!! Thankfully the doctor there just did glue so we wouldn't have to go back to a doctor to get stitches or staples taken out (remember when we were moving to Congo at the very beginnings of this blog?? Spencer split his head open and had to get 4 staples!!). Our boys seem to be rough I suppose? Or just need to get their "badge" of toughness.

After we got home this is how it was looking. We had kept bandaids over the cut because we didn't want him scratching the glue off, so that is why there are red marks on his face. 

It's tough trying to heal, so napping with Daddy helped. 

Looking really good!!! Today it's just a slight pink line! 

But let me tell you when we moved out of our apartment in NYC and stayed at the hotel that night....guess who bonked into that coffee table??? PRESTON!!! Luckily the skin didn't break, but he had quite the forehead for a while.
