A couple of weeks ago, Drake had a fall on a bar stool and smacked his nose right on it. It was sad. It was bleeding tons and he just kept crying and saying "My nose hurts". Only, it's really cute because the way he says it is super cute. It was in the afternoon, around 2 or 3, and I wasn't too worried about it. Rett left and went home teaching at 7, and when he got back, he looked closely, and started to get kind of worried about it. It looked awful at that point. It was swollen so big and so bruised. Since there's not really anything they do for broken noses, we just tried to put ice on it and gave him some ibuprofen. This was what it looked like that first night after it happened. And this picture just doesn't really do it justice.
Here's a week later, when it was just pretty much bruised.
He was a trooper and after the first day, didn't really cry or say it hurt at all. We love the injury pictures. Things like this happen so much around our house that I'm sure I miss most of the pictures, but the ones we get are usually pretty good. Some of our family that is around will get a little uneasy with all the crazy things the boys do. But usually the crazy things are not when the accidents happen. Most of the accidents happen when they are doing the everyday, normal things. I honestly can't believe more accidents don't happen with all the crazy things they do, but that's just the way it seems to be...Knock on wood :)
