Ellie's first REAL trip to the Emergency Room

Well, Ellie had her first real experience with the emergency room yesterday! It was so sad! We were at our friends' Cory and Andrea's house just enjoying some breakfast and Ellie decided she wanted to sit on mom's lap for a little bit. When Ellie tried to get down she ended up just slipping and falling and wacking her ear on the corner of a metal frame chair! When she stood crying and bleeding it looked like just a scratch, turns out she sliced her ear wide open! So we rushed her to Lourdes Emergency Room in Pasco and our poor baby ended up getting 7 stitches in the top of her left ear. She was such a trooper up until they had to inject her ear with the numbing stuff! The they had to wrap her up like a little burrito to stitch her ear up. Needless to say mom got pretty woozy watching her get stiched up, dad on the other hand was solid as a rock! Way to go dad! We will post pictures as soon as we can! It's pretty ugly!

Of course Ross had no problems! They know him by name there I'm sure! We're so glad Ellie was ok!
