Ouch!

Poor Dougie started this week off poorly. He was playing with his cars on the coffee table when something possessed him to get on it. He then attempted to get off but somehow slipped and fell onto the tile floor. Not good.

Once the crying stopped, he was just quiet but then he threw up. I had managed to do a quick search for "when to take your child to the doctor for a head injury" and that was top of the list. I call the doctor's office.

The nurse told us that bringing him in there wouldn't help because if he needed an x-ray of his head they weren't equipped to do that. She asked that we bring him directly to the children's hospital. So, off to Fort Worth we went. Several hours and one CT scan later, Dougie is just fine, though we certainly won't be posing for formal pictures anytime soon. :)

Here he is post hospital having a drink
