big bandaid

this picture is when max hit his head. nothing a "big band aid" (and his dad) can't fix. he has had his share of ouches lately. yesterday he fell and bit through his lip. it was bleeding a lot and i could tell he was going to need stitches. he cried for a minute and then kept saying, "big band aid. big band aid." so we got the ace bandage out and wrapped it around his chin. he got stitches and returned home around one in the morning. this morning after his bath, i noticed the stitches were gone and his gaping hole had returned. i'm not sure if he bit through them or what but it was too late to have it re-stitched. i hope it heals ok. he walks with his swollen bottom lip sticking way out. it looks like he has a bad case of pouting, but it must make it feel better. the good side is he has free access to all the popsicles he wants, which is a rarity at our house.
