OUCH!



Addie has always been a SUPER active child. She is fearless, and would climb or jump onto anything. She has been lucky to make it this long without any major mishaps. But, on Tues night she ran right into our kitchen table and got a huge bruise under her eye. Not even 24 hours later she tripped on my foot, and went flying head first into the coffee table! I instantly knew it was bad and said some choice words. Corey didn't realize the severity of Addie's injury and decided to YELL at me for swearing in front of Addie. Needless to say I wasn't very calm, but when he put me in my place I was able to think a little more clearly. :) He was so calm and just started getting gauze and ice and looked at it. (This is why he is a nurse, and I could never be one)! He was all excited because he decided that she would only need the special glue to hold the scar together, and he just happened to have some in his hiking gear. He wanted to be able to just take care of it at home, and save us money. He assured me that he had done it several times in the ER. But, I had my doubts! So...we went to the doctor and let him sanitize it, and glue it back together. Corey was so cute though, cause he threw on some gloves and helped clean it and glue it. The nurse and doctor were both kind of shocked, but they were grateful for the help. The doctor actually paid Corey a compliment and told him he was smart. Ego boosts are always nice! Adelynn did very well and barely cried. She has always been a very strong girl.


Right before we went to the doctor, she kept saying she didn't want to go to the doctor, until I told her she would get a treat!


All sewn up! She didn't want her picture taken and was pushing me away, so she has attitude.


Even more attitude!



Our Honorable "Aunt" Tammy came over tonight and made everything all better!

  2. I'm glad that my visit helped Addie feel all better. :) She's a brave girl. I hope she's feeling okay today. I love the sassy looks on her face in some of these pictures.
