First Stitches & First Soda

Last week we had a first, but I am sure not a last. Pete was adventurously climbing on the new stroller we got to help us out with twin transportation. We had just stepped around the corner, when he thought he would try to climb to the top of it. And the wheels slipped out and Pete met the tile floor chin first. Thankfully Dr. Brian Robinson, on our team, was near and we drove right to his house for stitches! Below are some pictures of our afternoon.

Who knew that their aluminum rolling island in their kitchen would be the perfect exam and operation table?! :)

He was not thrilled to be wrapped up like a mummy for the procedure, so we distracted him with some Peter Pan on Heath's iPhone...those phones are so handy.

Here is the finished product...one big gash sewn nicely with three stitches.

And here is the finished Pete...one disgruntled, tired little guy. Even the M&M's weren't too much of a comfort, but he ate them up of course!

Here are happier times though. A few days later while at a friend's party, Pete was given his first orange Fanta. As you can well see, he was tickled with his treat. It was hard to even get a picture of his face, as he usually had it down and focused on the straw. The fizz was so much, his little eyes watered the whole time and he kept choking on the bubbles. It was so funny to watch him drink it!!

Another way those phones come in handy! I should probably invest in one. :) So glad Pete is okay! Congratulations on the twins, btw!

Pete was so brave! So was mommy! I've been there and done that, hopefully not too many more times. Love you!
