Sunday Afternoon Adventure

Yesterday, while we were getting ready for Church, Audrey comes running around the corner from the kitchen to the living room and rams her head into the console table. Patrick went over and kissed the "boo boo" all better, end of story...Right? WRONG.

Later on we're sitting in the foyer of the chapel (we were late...don't judge me) and I notice some dry blood in her hair and on her scalp. I grabbed a baby wipe and started cleaning it up and asked Patrick what happened ( I forgotten about her running into the table) and he reminds me that she ran into the table.I figured she must have scratched her head. Nothing big it just needed to be wiped off. (We're Good Parents, we notice blood on our child 30 minutes after the fact.) Anyway...I start cleaning it an realize that it's not small. She had deep hole in her head...no picture unfortunately. Luckily the woman sitting next to us is "in the medical field" not sure what that means...she did have a first aid kit in her car...anyway she looked at it. She didn't think it was a big deal...and I then suggested we grab, Sherilyn, she's moms next door neighbor and a nurse...so this wonderful woman says that's a good idea and walks off to find her. Goes into the chapel and walks down the aisle to get her. How amazing and generous is that? a few minutes later she comes back with Sherilyn in tow. Sherilyn takes a look..cleans it with some of the first aid stuff, puts a band aid on and said that should do it. Then for the rest of the sacrament meeting Audrey started to get temperamental. Most if not everything set her off and we had to take her into the Young Womans room twice. Patrick and I are convinced that the poor things head really hurts so we hope in the car...go home and give her some Tylenol.

A few hours later I take a look at the wound and notice nothing has changed and I was worried about it getting infected from Day Care. So we hop into the car, yet again, and drive to the insta care to have a doctor look at it. He decides it's nothing serious..she doesn't need a stitch, but he could super glue (sterile Dermabond) it if we wanted. We opted and she now has a large glob of super glue on her head that will be there for about a week. (again no pics)

Here are some pictures I snapped of her in the patient room. She was in pretty good spirits...and was really good about answering the doctors questions and sitting still.
