Drum Roll Please........

WE MATCHED!!!!!

Sunday

As a result of Lucas' head injury on his bike his face has been swelling up. This is Lucas yesterday after church. His forehead and bridge of his nose are swollen. This makes it hard for his eyes to open all this way. In person his profile looks much more flat than normal. Today he is developing two black eyes. Feel lucky he is doing so well though.

Cousin Annee has inspired me to pull out my sewing machine this last week. She sent some darling fabric and said she was waiting for some pictures. I made a skirt and shirt and have not stopped. This is one of the skirts I made Friday. My plan is to make matching ones for the baby.

Is this really the best way to get attention from Mike?

No, this is not another photo from Tuesday. This was taken today.

And this time it is Lucas, who was speeding down the hill on his bike without wearing his helmet. His sister stepped onto the sidewalk in front of him, he swerved to miss her, went flying over his handlebars and hit his head on the driveway.

Fortunately, Mike was on call (as usual) so the hospital paged him and he came to the ER to tend to Lucas' wound. It was not a clean laceration. It was torn into a Y shape and full of gravel so it required a lot of clean up work. Here Mike is irrigating it with a syringe full of water.

After getting stitched up, Lucas had a CAT scan. Lucas called it a COW scout.

Lucas is happy he is now doing better and that he was so brave.
