A Check-up, A Treat, and A Hospital Visit 1.31.11

Blood pressure. Check.
Hearing test. Check.


Celebratory brownie and chocolate milk.


All wrapped up to get his CT scan. He looked so tiny on the big hospital bed.


He was so happy to see Mike and his phone...there was a lot of waiting to be done and what better way to spend his time then by playing "Angry Birds". :o)




I had taken the day off today for Logan's 5 year check up. He did great! He passed the hearing and sight test with flying colors. He still lands in the 15th to 25th percentile in height and weight. And no shots!!! It was a great appointment and afterwards, we went to Starbucks for a little celebratory treat. Then it was off to go meet Karen and the boys for lunch. Well, as Logan was getting out of the car (he wanted to get out from my seat), his foot got caught on part of the car and he fell out of the car landing head first on the concrete parking lot. It was so awful to hear and see. He didn't lose consciousness, but got a good ole size bump on the side of his head. So we kept our lunch plans and then he went to Mom and Dad's while I had a dentist appointment. When I got back to their place to pick him up, he was saying how his brain hurt and he was exceptionally clingy (which is unlike Logan). Then on the way home he fell asleep {which could have meant nothing but I was starting to get a little panicky} and then when I woke him up, he threw up {about 1 minute from our house}. After cleaning up and another round of puking, it was off to the emergency room. Logan was such a trooper. He got poked and prodded and a CT scan. Thankfully he got a clean bill of health, but was told to take it very easy for the next couple weeks. It was his first concussion, and hopefully his last. Life is good when your little boy gets a clean bill of health.
