Second time around...

If Preston keeps all his fingers by the time he is 2, it will be a miracle! This kid and his hands have had more problems than ever! On Sunday evening, while playing in Reese's room, he managed to pinch his thumb in Reese's toybox (again!) Kyle held pressure on it for about 15 min, but when I looked at it, and could see his muscle, I knew we had to get to the ER. We packed the kids up, grabbed the IPad for Reese to stay entertained, and went to the ER. The doctor was already waiting in our room after our initial assesment, and immediatly ordered X-Rays to make sure his thumb wasn't broken (it wasn't) and then he was held down by 3 nurses to get 3 stitches in his finger. Not fun :( Poor guy did really well though, and we went to the doctor today for a check up to make sure its healing well, and it is. He will get his stitches out this weekend. We head back to Ilinois tomorrow for our long Christmas break, so luckily my cousin who is a nurse said she would take the stitches out for him.
Presents are wrapped, suitcases are almost all packed, so we head out tomorrow and won't be home until the 29th. We hope you have a Merry Christmas!!
