First Stitches:(

Last night was Kayden's first time for stitches, I am sure it will not be his last... He was bouncing his bum on a bouncy ball in the living room, and the ball slipped out from under him and he flew forward and smacked his head on our glass entertainment center. I didn't even noticed that he was playing on the ball or I am sure I would have stopped him from doing that.

I ran over to get him and blood was everywhere,You could see his bone(I was trying not to panic) I said Adam he needs stitches hurry let's go. Kayden was crying for about 10 min, then he stopped and said "mom, I am sorry for breaking my face." " I need a special band aid, aunt Heather has band aides." I said it's OK Kayden bug it just and accident we are going to the special doctor. We got there and he wasn't crying at all he just kept saying he needed a Cars band aid. Then they took him in a room and explained to us that he might need to be sedated him if he doesn't hold still. That's when I started to panic I was so nervous I just started bawling, I felt so bad. They decided they would just play it out, so they brought in this stretcher with restraints so he couldn't move at all. Of course he was so scared, he was crying and kept saying "Momma, I don't like this sleeping bag anymore." They had to stick him with needles to make it numb when they stitch it. I was crying my eyes out. Poor Kid he did so good after the all the shots.

I would show him pictures to keep him distracted while they stitched his face. He ended up having 14 stitches cause it was so deep they had to do inner and outer. After he was done we took him to get a big Buzz Lightyear for being so brave he was so excited! So he is doing great, I don't think it will be that bad of a scar it was such a clean cut. I am sure this isn't going to be his last experience with stitches but lets hope!!
