Well what better way to celebrate a birthday weekend with a visit to the hospital! After busting his lip at the party Sunday afternoon,(a chunk was missing), we quickly headed home to Pittsburgh to pay a visit to the ER. It was thought his lip would need stitches. Upon arrival at the new Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, we quickly made our way through triage, registration, etc. We were called back to a room where the intern assessed Ry and it was determined he would need several stitches. With the advice of parents and Andrea (Trav's sister-in-law), we asked for a plastic surgeon to perform the procedure. Despite their hesitation, it was finally agreed upon. They numbed up Ry's lips with a cream and while holding his bug, peanut got 4 stitches. He was perfect, absolutely perfect!!!! We left the hospital around 10pm.
Of course after being home for 10 minutes, 1 stitch came out! Ry had to follow a soft foods diet and a light physical activity regimine. Yea, try telling a 4 year old that!
