All Boy!

Last Friday while at some friend's of ours new home, Jack tripped and fell on his chin. His teeth bit threw and just below his lip was hanging open and bleeding like I've never seen before. We took him to Cook Children's Hospital nearby in Ft. Worth and he had to get 8 stitches on the outside and 3 on the inside - 11 total. It was so sad b/c they had to wrap him up in a straight jacket device to keep him still, 3 people had to hold him down and they had this bright light glaring in his eyes. Once stitched up he did remarkably well. Now, a week later, they are out and there is barely a scar. It sure was traumatic though and nothing we'd like to repeat anytime soon. Yesterday, a week after the stitches incident, I took Joe to the doctor's office for their Saturday clinic and found out Joe has a mild case of RSV. He threw up every bottle yesterday which was completely unrelated to the RSV. Poor guy seems to have a double whammy of viruses. To top it off, Jack woke up at 2am this morning throwing up. One bed sheet, 3 p.j. changes, countless vomiting episodes, and several hours later, we all finally got sleep around 4:30am. Fun times at the Robbins' house this MLK weekend!
