Happy Birthday...Where's the Emergency Room?


Notice anything strange about this picture?  The headwrap on Daffodil perhaps?  How about the HOSPITAL BAND on my baby? 

The kidlets had another fabulously good time at their birthday party this summer.  However, after they woke up from their nap afterward, in approximately 2.3 minutes, Zee had gotten on one of her new, lovely toys...then immediately rolled over backward and hit the back of her head on the table/bench.  She started screaming of course, so I was holding her when Finch noticed something bizarre on my arm.  "Hey, what's that on your ar..."

Blood.  Lots and lots of fresh blood.  And so the craziness ensued.  After calling our doctor and getting her cleaned up it didn't look as bad as we thought it could, but not as good, either.  So, we embarked on our first ER visit. 

Four hours later we were back--with our first stitch.  And a bunny with a headwrap (just like hers, at an earlier point in the process).  And yes, that's right...not stitches, but STITCH.  One.  But hey, I am certainly not complaining.

Zee of course thought the whole adventure was just that.  Her favorite part?  The purple popsicle at the end.  Worst part? 

When Mama dropped her "delicious, delicious" popsicle on the ground while getting her in the van.
