Our church has a large population of young kids and they all love to run around together after the service on Sundays. Our boys are no exception. This past Sunday Trey was running and playing and somehow stumbled and took a bad fall onto a very hard floor. He hit head-first with is brow bone and was in a LOT of pain. He usually bounces back pretty quick, but this one had him out of commission for a while. Thankfully one of our good friends who is also a pediatrician was around and took a look at him, assuring us that he would be fine with a little time and ice. He also approved an adult tylenol for Trey (the only thing available), and Trey was able to take his first ever whole pill, and on the first try! That helped with the pain and he got back to his normal self. These first two pics are from later that evening, the last one is from today (Tuesday), two days later and you can see how the bruising has settled. I don't really think the ones from Sunday really give justice to the amount of swelling he had, so you'll just have to believe me that it was very swollen until the next day.

Ouch!! Poor Trey! What is it with kids running around and falling at church? Seth got his first bloody nose on Sunday when he was also running around and playing and hit the floor really hard. He didn't do too bad with it and only cried for a few minutes, but there was blood all over Dan's shirt!
what a shiner, best one i've seen in along time. wish Grama could have been there to kiss it. thanks for the pics, ps. only run and jump on carpet then you will only get rug burns. love Grama (thank God for the friend/pediatrician.)
Yikes! Looks painful!
Poor little guy. It looks like it hurt.
