Something about me being on bed rest tells my boys that it's a great time to get injured! Here's what happened LAST time I was on bed rest:
Parker was at Aunt Jennie's house and decided to swing from her curtains like Tarzan. The huge rod ripped from the wall and landed on his head. Poor Aunt Jennie had to deal with a hysterical big brother (seeing all the blood), her own 3 kids, and figure out what to do with Parker! Oh the trauma! He ended up with 10 staples in his head.
And here is what happened yesterday:
Beckham was in his chair for dinner and Parker was pushing him toward the table when the chair tipped forward and Beckham's face hit the table first and then the whole chair went down to the floor. ALL 3 boys were crying, and I almost was too! Thankfully this time it was at our house and Darin was home. He took him to the doc and I called the dentist, and we got the same answer from each of them- let it heal on it's own. (We could have stitched it up, but we would have had to go to the ER and pay a wonderful $500 copay... and sedate him... ) So we are hoping and praying it heals well. He kind of looks like he has a bouncy ball in his cheek today, but he's still pretty happy.
Boys, boys, boys. Hopefully this is the only injury this summer!
