Joe came from work a little early on Halloween so we'd have time to visit the grandparents and such and it turned out good that he did b/c right after dinner Gibs tripped while holding a melamine little plate. The plate apparently hit his chin just right and took a chunk of skin out of it (the plate didn't break or anything). We debated if we needed to bring him in or not and decided we should since it was on his face and might scar weird. Thankfully he didn't need stitches b/c of where it was located on his face (like when you chew and talk and such, that part of your skin barely stretches). Honestly I'm surprised this was his first Urgent Care visit since the kid has no fear and falls and injures himself all the time! While we were they asked about a large bruise he had on his forehead (asking if he hit it at the same time) that he had gotten a few days prior. I swear he always has some sort of injury on his head!
He was not so excited for this pic as it was shortly after his fall...
He was doing great at the hospital and very excited about the whole thing...until we had to rip off his butterfly bandage we had put on and the the doctor had to reopen the wound to see the size of it. It then took forever (okay, probably only like 15 minutes) for the couple of coats of glue to dry so he did NOT enjoy being held down by 3 people while the doctor glued it. Oh, and with clothes and shoes on he was 29 pounds! Layla this summer was 27:).
That wasn't quite the start to Halloween that we had pictured, but it worked out and the kids actually both really enjoyed the candy, coloring books and stuffed bears they got from the hospital. We then headed to Grampy and Gigi's house to trick-or-treat.
