ER visit

It seems like if you are a mother of a boy, you will go to the ER many times.  This hasn't been any different for me, lets just say that both Kanyon and Tyce have had cat scans before they turned one.  Well today we had an adventure, it's always an adventure in our house.  Tyce was playing with a plastic rod (for a tent) and for some reason wanted to put it in his mouth.  Well he decided to climb over the chair onto the couch.  Well he fell onto the rod and it went right into the roof of his mouth.  He was bleeding like crazy and it was a decent sized gash, so we decided to take him in.  Luckily Terry was able to take him (going to the ER with three kids just didn't seem like a good idea).  They checked him and told us that he couldn't get stitches in that part of his mouth (it was pretty close to his throat) and so it just has to heal itself.  I'm so glad that he didn't have to get stitches, I just worried about them trying to get into his mouth.  He won't even let me look in his mouth to see if he's teething.  They are going to put him on antibiotics for a couple of days to make sure it doesn't get infected.  I'm glad that he's okay, I'm realizing that I need to get more educated with first aid because things always seem to happen when it's just me at home.
