The answer....TRUE!!!
Somebody was swinging a stethoscope around and it sliced Nessa under the right eye. She screamed for 3 min (the whole time I was on the phone with our Pediatrician!) and then she was "fine!" Preston on the other hand was a mess! The spanking and time out were probably the culprits! That and a little remorse! I bundled up both kids and headed to the ER (Tim was in a meeting...lovely!) When we got inside the exam room, I noticed a t.v. above the bed. I told the dr. that she doesn't watch much t.v. so I asked them to pop in a DVD.
It worked like a charm...for a while. They wrapped her in a papoose and she was talking about the movie! "Mommy, Doree (Dora) moooey (movie)!" So sweet...and then came the scream/tears. She was such a trooper. And Preston laid low for the most part. Except when Nessa was screaming, he said "I can't hear the movie!" One innocent little look from me and that compliant stopped dead in it's tracks!
Watching "Dorey" while in my papoose. I know...what a terrible mom taking a pix. But it was her first ER visit! One of many I'm sure! :)
Check out my battle wounds! I'm so brave! (The next day it was quite swollen, and each day following it got more black/blue)
I couldn't get stitches, but I got it glued and taped!
