These 3 staples were necessary because of SnugBug's "dizzy game" that ended with his head against the edge of a speaker.
I wish I had the video thing figured out, because listening to him tell the story is pretty cute."I was gettin' dizzy and I fell against the seeker, and I had to go to the hos-pi-tal, and I even, I even, got a pah-si -cal! (Popsicle is a very hard word to say.)
He cried for a little bit (of course) but overall was very calm. The staples go in so quickly that it was over before he really registered that it was hurting. Punkin was more traumatized, I think. It took a little while to convince her that he wasn't going to die, and she stayed up past 10 until we got back from the ER so she could see that he was going to be fine. I'm so grateful that she cares about him!
I've been delinquent posting about this - it was Friday night a week ago. This past Friday, we went and had the staples removed. He's healing up quickly and it looks good! He was my "super-big, brave boy" so I took him to McDonald's for his favorite ice cream sundae.
Even with all of his "repairs" - isn't he the cutest thing?? Oh, I just love that crazy boy.

We've had stitches and staples too. The only downside? Hair won't grow there. Not an issue unless he wants a buzz cut. Then again, he'll have a cool scar to impressthe girls.
He is so cute!! Cool scars impressed me!!
Glad to hear popsicles and ice cream sundaes are the soothing touch. No stitches or staples here....yet....
He's adorable! His retelling of the story was very funny. And it's so cute that your daughter was concerned about him.
oh serioulsy, my skin crawled...you know that creepy sensation that rolls up your spine? can't shake it...that photo gave me the creeps. so glad he took it like a man.
30??? YIKES! My son just got stitches in his finger. He had more nerves than i did, he watched the whole process, I had to look away now and then. I hope this is th LAST for me.
Poor child! Sounds like he did really well with the whole thing. We avoided the stitches, but had lots of broken bones. I hated those days.
oh. my. goodness.
Can't wait to see what kind of scars my little guy will get.
I'm glad he's OK.
that must have been nerve wracking for you!! Glad to hear he's all mended and got to enjoy a sundae for his troubles!! =)
Two kids and 30 stiches or staples? Wow, you are way ahead of us in that department and we have seven! Maybe we should compare broken bones....
Glad he's all healed up. Popsickles and ice cream will make the memory a sweet one!
Hi! Thank your for commenting on my blog-your words mean alot :)
Your little boy is precious!!
I hate that he had to get stitches! I think my son is going to be accident prone as well...my daughter is that's for sure. We have one concussion, one set of stitches, and several ER visits!!
