A First for Carson

Well....we thought that some way Carson would be the one to make it through "toddlerhood" without scars on his face (like his brother)..........we were wrong:(

The boys had their first Sunday school class today. It went well until they came and got me in the sanctuary to say Carson had fallen down. It ended up he fell into a corner of a bookshelf and we got to have the experience of taking another boy into the emergency room to get stitches.

Luckily the doctor 'settled' with the glue stitches (strongly requested by the mom) and Carson left with a bandaid on his head and a bag of goodies (courtesy of Traders Point Christian Church down the road).

As expected, Carson was a real trooper. He walked right into the examination room, laid on the bed and said "doctor fix it". He got to explore the examination room, meet all of the nurses that were hanging out and have some good quality time with mommy and daddy on his own.

We are now hoping to not get contacted by CPS (child protection services)....seeing as though when the doctor said we would need to make sure to put sunblock on the scar everytime he goes outside for 6 months, I said "that won't be a big deal since we are having to do the same for his brother's scar". She kind of got a weird look on her face after that. I already have a record and 2 reports on file with Cooper.

Anyway, below are his 2 pictures to document:
