Liam's first stitches

Friday afternoon we received a call from daycare notifying us that Liam had fallen down and probably needed to see the doctor, so we should come over right away. When we got there, we learned that he had fallen down face first, and broke his fall with his sippy cup...causing his bottom teeth to go through his face below his bottom lip. I took him to the urgent care and Chris took Keira home. Liam was a trooper through it all and did great at the doctors office. He ended up with 2 stitches underneath his bottom lip (they said they couldn't do anything for the inside of his mouth, that would heal on its own in a few days). It was a little traumatizing to be in a baby straight jacket (for both me and Liam!) during the procedure....but both the doctor and nurse were very impressed with how he handled the situation, and said he did better than most adults. As soon as we got home, he immediately chased Keira around the house and gobbled up her goldfish. He's a resilient kid and didn't seem to skip a beat!
