Abuse!!!



Noah had a little adventure in store for our whole family. On Monday afternoon he decided to try and play Superman on the swing and took a little spill. He went face first into the ground from about 6 feet. Needless to say, we took a little trip to the ER. After a head CT and a craniofacial CT, they said he was okay and could take the little guy home. I wasn't so sure they were going to let us considering how rough the little guy looked. I thought they might try and find some new parents for him but they seemed to think we could do the job (I'm not always so sure). Anyway, no visits from CPS so I guess we're in the clear.

Poor Noah looks so pathetic. It's not quite caught on the picture. I think he looks worse in real life but I thought I'd post him so he could get some much deserved sympathy. He was looking in the mirror saying, "It's okay Noah." He also isn't talking so clearly cause he's so stuffed up and swollen. When we were at the hospital he kept saying "I wha ing Ek." We finally figured out he was saying "I'm watching Shrek."

He is now back to his naughty self so we figure he's not feeling too bad. Quite the adventure for our little boy.

Poor Noah, I am really waiting for the day that we take Matthew, He was dive bombing and butting his head against the carpet all day. Boys! Glad it was nothing too serious!

Glad you are going to be okay, Noah. You sure look beat up! I hope all of the black and blue goes away fast!

I love the line about finding new parents. Yep. That made me laugh out loud. Good thing kids are resilient. Man, they can get themselves beat up. They don't even need bullys. They're their own worst enemy.
