5 years & 5 stitches later....

Nick and I celebrated our 5yr anniversary on Sept 9th! We went away(not to far away, down town slc baby)for the weekend ALONE!! It was heavenly.. we went to tucanos for dinner on Friday night, a movie and then slept in till 10 when golfing, shopping and then dinner... During our dinner my sister, who had our girls, called and told me we needed to get there because Brynlee had fallen in the tub and split her chin and needs stitches!! AHHHH.. I was so scared.. I knew she was well taken care off but its the first "big" injury we have had! We not being there when it happend made me sad but at least she was in good hands!! We sped over and took her to the kids care! Her wound was almost bone deep, you could see the fat oozing out and it was pretty long! She did so good! They numbed her up with gel, then gave her like 6 shots of numbing stuff into the wound and started stiching... She cried alittle and because she was so strong there were 4 of us holding her down but once she started stitching she just layed there asking for suckers and stickers!!!
here a few pics of our adventure



Her is her before, getting numb with the gel.. She took her bink out and said "cheese"

This looks horrible but they were cleaning it with Iodine & sterile water!

Sorry I didn't flip this... This doctor was amazing and Bryn told her "thank you, love you bye" when we left!

Getting all stitched up!

5 stiches and a happy girl with suckers and stickers!

Its hard to have to hold your own child down to have stiches, I had to do the same thing with Jaylie. Glad she is ok.
