Mother of all ouchies!

Praise the Lord we made it 3.5 years before our first "emergency" with a little one and thankfully it wasn't as aweful as it could have been!!! Whew!!! Ok, so here's the scoop. It was Sunday Funday and for a big boy treat Hudson was invited out to lunch with YaYa, KK and Mrs. Carol. All was going well until.....BAM! Hudson was apparently sitting in his chair which was super close to the table and started pushing against the edge of the table. All of a sudden, the chair went back, chin hit the table, blood started gushing and screaming began. I got a call from Auntie KK, my heart sank, and I ran like a bat out of hell down to The Gruene Door. My poor little guy (and his YaYa) were covered in blood, they had towel and ice to the chin, and there were of course lots of tears....broke my heart. We hurried into YaYa's car and headed to the minor emergency clinic. Needless to say, Hudson was scared but all in all he was a true CHAMP! Thankfully we were able to calm him down and keep him still. Because it was a straight gash of sorts, they were able to use the super cool Dermabond glue (aka "special purple medicine" because Hudson was not too fond of the idea of being glued back together) instead of having to go the "stitches" route.
So after a cool big boy bandaid, some motrin and a fresh change of clothes, our little guy got a special treat for being so brave!
And we're all smiles again:)

Mother of all ouchies...Day 3...healing nicely!
Day 5..."Mom, I've got this"...no fear!
