It was a very snowy day today.  The kids did play in the snow this morning, but for the most part we stayed inside, did not go anywhere.  In the late afternoon I got everyone in the car and we went to deliver some bread bears to neighbors for a Christmas treat.  It was shortly after 5pm when we got home, everyone was hungry, so we were starting dinner when Bridget begins to cry frantically from the bedroom, “I’m bleeding.”  Ammon is wiping the blood from her hand and then there is no cut…he says “where is the blood?”  Well, turns out Bridget has a nasty gash on her chin.  Should we try to glue it, butterfly bandage, or does it really need to see the doctor?

Bridget is screaming and throwing a major tantrum that she is not going to the doc, but we think it best.  Thankfully the doctors office has after hours clinic and they do stitches.  She got numbing gel applied for about 20 minutes and then the doc was able to stitch the wound closed, approximately 8 stitches.   Bridget was a brave girl.  I think the pain must have been extreme, because once the numbing took effect she was very calm.

Exciting times right before Christmas and her 5th birthday next week.  She is the first of all the kids to need stitches.

During General conference on Saturday Logan had lots of fun drawing.  He is quite the little artist!
