For an update on my kitty, she got her staples out a couple days ago and is all healed up :) She's back to her normal self, jumping on the bookshelf, curling up on people, and running around. The only problem is that after I give her her medicine, she throws it up a little later.
On Friday, my son got him portraits taken at Sears. They were his one year and holiday photos :) He wore a little gray suit with a light blue collar t-shirt underneath. Unlike the last time, he was all smiles! He struck a whole mess of poses and I didn't even need to bribe him with goldfish! My dad treated us and paid for the whole lot. These are most likely gonna be my Christmas presents to people this year to my family lol Sad but I'm broke, so what am I gonna do but that and give baked goodies? lol
As for last night, Aidan ended up in the emergency room. Aidan was on his daddy's lap and I was playing with him from behind the couch. I saw him starting to fall, so I reached out and grabbed his arm to catch him. He went from laughing hysterically to screaming and crying so hard he could barely catch his breath. I sat him down on my lap as we tried to figure out what happened. We saw that he didn't want to move his right arm, so we had my nurse mother-in-law to be take a look at it. At first we thought it was his wrist, so as I nursed him to calm him down, we set his wrist down on a wrapped up ice pack. After about 5 minutes, we decided to take him to the ER because he kept crying. It was 9:45pm and once there, we didn't have to wait very long to been seen (only about 15 minutes). They took us to the back where we waited. The doctor examined him on my lap and told us it was his elbow. What had happened was that his elbow got dislocated because his joints were still soft so it made it easy to slip out. It was called nursemaids elbow or something like that. Anyways, they took his hand and then popped his elbow back into place. He cried and screamed and then they gave him some Motrin. Since he wasn't moving his arm right away and appeared to be in a lot of pain still, the doctor ordered to have an x-ray taken just to make sure nothing was broken. We waited for 20 minutes before they called us in foe the x-ray. During those 20 minutes, Aidan made a quick recovery and started to clap, smile, eat goldfish, and run around. After the x-rays were taken, all we had to do was wait around for the results. We waited for 3 hours! Luckily, there was a woman there with 3 kids and we got to talking, so that kept me entertained and her kids kept Aidan entertained lol They were really nice and lived close by actually so we swapped numbers :) After they called us back in, they told us that Aidan was ok and had us sign some forms before we left. By the time we got in the car to go home, it was 2:00am! Exhausted, Aidan went right to sleep in his crib and my man and I went to sleep as soon as our heads hit the pillow. That was a long day.
