This picture isn't the best. Sorry.
He is a real stinker! His new trick is to push the chairs over to where ever he wants and climb on into trouble! He had just pushed a chair over to the kitchen sink and was getting ready to get into the sink. Brandon got him down off the chair. Gavin got upset(temper! temper!) and bonked his head on the cabinet knob! It isn't even sharp but he must have hit just right on the bone. Brandon being quite the expert on stitches from his childhood experiences, decided we'd better take him on in, so I did. He got three stitches. Poor kid! Surprisingly, he was the first child of ours to need stitches. Crazy boy! Honestly, when he is awake, we are pretty much just trying to keep him safe! He is anywhere and everywhere...that he shouldn't be! I made three trips to the pediatric night clinic last week. One for Zach because he had the croup and they gave him an oral steroid to open up his airways. The next night was for Gavin's stitches. Then two days later, I took Gavin in again for the croup. He also received the steroid but through a shot. He just loves that place so much now...not. The poor child had such a look of terror going in after he got stitches. He put his blankie over his head the WHOLE time the doctor examined him. He was so hoping the doc would disappear. Oh, the trauma! But at least they have a cool fish tank with "Nemos" and give out suckers. That's partially worth the trip.
This is hanging outside of our home right now. Brandon said it needed to be up the WHOLE week. I don't even think we do that with the American flag during the week of the 4th and that's my fave holiday. Brandon is wearing blue everyday this week, and Tanner is wearing a BYU shirt to school EVERY day(yes, he has that many!) Freaky you may say? I say,do what ya gotta do boys. Go Cougs.
