Brennie got his first stitches! Unfortunately the story isn't really that great, I am sure we all expected much more from my little climbing machine. So here's the story.... we flew into MI this weekend to see Grandma and Grandpa K, just before dinner the afternoon we arrived I found a tick on the back of Brendans right ear. It was big and YUCKY. I used the tweezers to try to get it out, and boy did Brendan not like that that thing was in there deep. I pulled on it and the tick head broke off and stayed in his ear. SO on the phone with the nurse help line who tell me we need to go to the emergency room to have it removed. My mom and dad have recently moved so off we go to find the closest emergency room. Bubbs was a trooper until the actual procedure. By the time they got down to business it was way past his bed time and he was not happy to get a shot of Novocaine and have his ear cut open and probed. It took a good bit to get the tick head out and he ended up with a couple of tiny stitches. You can barley see them in the picture. The funny thing is the glare from his pale skin and white hair made it almost impossible to get a picture. After a good nights sleep, Brendan was no worse for wear and ready to party. My tough little man.
