little bugger

oh dear. poor sirus!! little guy, he's not even two and just made his 2nd trip to the er!! last time was in february when he was working on being a beach nurse. this time he went to children's hospital which is like not even a mile from our house. i was supposed to go swimming after werk but it took me an hour 15 to get home which meant that by the time i got to the pool i would have only 1/2 hour there and whatever i blew it off. eric was vacuuming when i got home and we were all getting ready to go for a walk. eric was stll vacuuming and seamus and i were in the bathroom when i heard it... the scuffle of the bike as we referr to the 4 wheeled plastic ride on toy of the kids, then the solid bump, then the cries. i ran right out to see poor little sirus with his hands on his face standing in a pool of blood!! i grabbed him and took him to eric right away. litle guy had bt his lip and was bleeding all over the place. i never saw anything like it. i had eric call the doctor and they said that although it likely was fine, its better to be safe especially since he fell on tile and we didn't actually see what happened. poor little guy's shirt was by this time covered in blood and tears and snot from his runny nose. i was worried about going to children's hospital because i was afraid of seeing sick or hurt little kids but it was quiet there and everyone was so incredibly nice. sirus got a bracelet and then seamus eric and i all got stickers saying we belonged to sirus. sirus was called right back into triage and then right into a room. not even 2 minutes later the doctor came in. sirus sat on my lap and was really cooperative. seamus wanted in on the action even, telling him how she hurt her foot yesterday but when the doctor asked to see it she shyed away. the doctor then tld us that he was a jr doctor and the other doctor would be in. not even 2 minutes later the senior doctor came in. wow, these doctors are so nice! ad they do such a great job! this doctors even put a tongue depresser in sirus's mouth, poked around on his teeth and everything and sirus just sat there. his teeth were ok although one on top was bleeding, and he had a hurt on his chin but he didn't seem to have a concussion and everything else seemed fine. they say that they try to avoid stitching up lips on little kids for several reasons, the main one being that it doesn't really do any good and the kids wind up tearing the stitches out anyway. plus they would have to put him under general anesthetic to do it and i just wouldn't be able to handle that at all! so, the doctor gave both seamus and sirus popsicles and sent us on our way. little guy needs to stop it!!
other news, at the 5k the other weekend, i forgot to mention that i saw my obgyn - the doctor that delivered sirus and that i went to for all the prenatal checkups for both kids. i wanted to say hi but wasn't sure if that was ok or not.
