The top picture is of Manny having a great time at Barnes and Noble on the stage but then things quickly turned bad when he tripped face first into the lil benches they have there playing peekaboo with Morgan. He started wailing and when I picked him up and turned him around blood was just running out of his little mouth. I tryed to cup my hand under his chin to catch it and called for the other children to follow me. We quickly walked up to the drink area for ice, all the while he is just wailing. A crowd gathered and a lady insisted on calling 911 to check him. I finally got him settled before they got there by nursing him which also stopped the bleeding. The management and workers were very kind and helpful and so were the customers. A manager watched the other children while I went into the ambulace with him so that they could see if he needed stitches or not...luckly he didnt.
I realized that day another hard part about been a mom of many... when you are out with them all alone and something bad happens what do you do? My husband was 45 mins away so if it had been worse and he needed to go in the ambulance I would have had to let him go alone and follow with the other children. There is no way they could let me and 5 children ride with them. That would have been awful. I pray we are never put in that situation. Manny is recovering well and everyone loves the stuffed Brobee doll that ended up coming home with us. Madison is pretending to feed him a lollypop in the 2nd picture and the 3rd is of my lil guy all tuckered out drooling some blood on the way home. Wow, I just couldn't get over how much he bled. That cute lil outfit is probably ruined. Oh well, atleast he's gonna be ok.
