Our first stitches

and hopefully our last. I'll try to make a long story short - basically I got a call from the water company this morning about our leak and was working on that while trying to keep Joey away from his nebulizer full of medicine. He fell, and I guess bumped the table nearby. Mario took him so I could finish my call, and when I was finally finished, Mario said he might need stitches. After a quick trip to the pediatrician, we learned he needed them. We were the only people in the pediatric side of the ER at 9:30am, and yet it still took forever. The boys were great (poor Joey did have to be strapped down for the 4 stitches under his lip) and we finally made it back home at 12:15. With all of the crazy things this daredevil does, he gets stitches for tripping in the family room? I can't believe it! It was just 2 days ago I saw him smash his tricycle into our minivan (all parties walked away fine). Joey's other favorite thing to do is walk around the house with a blanket over his head... no severe damage from that yet. I'm hoping this is our last experience with stitches, but I'm thinking it probably won't be.

Poor guy! Hope he feels better soon (though those pictures makes it look like he doesn't feel bad at all)
