Not for the faint of heart....graphic pictures.....consider yourself warned

This was too cute not to post!  (Gavin and Reagan)

I always thought that McKinley would be the first to break a bone, get stitches, or otherwise injure herself seriously. She is much more daring than the boys are. Fell down the stairs multiple times as a toddler (which is terrible to watch), jumps high, rides hard, runs fast....all the elements for disaster. However, both the boys have beaten her to the punch.
Jamison joined Gavin in the "I've had stitches" club. Sadly, it was not some manly accident he can remember for years. He's young enough he won't even remember!! I bought a 3 pack of marinara sauce from Costco. They are glass jars inclosed in plastic wrap. Somehow they got knocked off the table, hit the chair, and somehow Jamison got cut in the process. No shattered glass. The plastic kept the glass from shattering. I have no idea how he got this cut, but it was nasty!!
Here you go.....(these were taken with a phone)..If you are of a weak constitution, do not continue to view ...

.Located just above his right ankle on the front of his little leg. Even to me, these look bad! Right out of my nursing text books. You could see the subcutaneous layer...which is the layer of fat underneath all the skin. Not something you should see on a two year old. Not two cuts, just two different angles.

Here is the after party shot. One with flash, one without. I couldn't decide which one gave a better view. It looks like a bite mark. Nope, just a marinara mark.

 

He was a trooper at the Dr. office. The dr had a couple more stitches to go and Jamison pipes up, "I all done mom. I all done". He starts to pull his leg away and everything. Poor kid. Me: "Do you want me to carry you or do you want to walk?" Him: "I walk". Literally went jumping out of the office, none the worse for having a massive marinara bite mark. Tough kid! We love you, little man!
