My First Blog

Well I'm starting off my first blog with the saga that was yesterday morning. I got in the shower to get ready for church, and just a few minutes later Rubin was in the bathroom yelling that he needed my help because there was blood everywhere. I jumped out of the shower and found my son covered in blood - it was coming out his nose and his mouth and running down his chest. He was crying, obviously because it hurt, but I think he was equally upset that it was making a mess. I cleaned him up, calmed him down, got dressed, and then we took him to urgent care to make sure his now-crooked nose wasn't broken. He was great for the nurses and doctor, but not so much for the x-rays. Luckily nothing is broken and my 3 year old doesn't need plastic surgery. It just looks crooked because only one side of his nose is swollen, but everyhing is fine. We still have no clue what happened - Rubin was in the bathroom and just heard a thud. By analyzing the blood spatters and getting Brayden's extremely unhelpful version of the story, we decided that he either fell up the stairs in the kitchen or just ran into the wall. Either one is a very likely possibility considering how clumsy the child is.
