Stitches Boy

Thursday night Patrick and I went to Athena's parent/teacher conference. I asked my Mom & Dad to watch the kids for the hour we'd be gone. They let Carter fall asleep on the couch which meant that at his bedtime, he wasn't tired. We let him stay up with Athena to play. This ended up in a trip to Urgent Care and three stitches in his noggin. Here's two photos:

I like the one with the goofy smile as you can just see his two dead front teeth from when he tried to knock them out when he was two. Too bad I didn't get a photo showing the staple he had in the back of his head, then the trilogy would be complete. Why is it always his head that he injures?

He picked out a Ben10 toy last night (how does he even know who Ben10 is???) at Walgreen's for being such a brave boy. The stitches come out this coming Thursday. Who wants to take bets on whether he'll try to weazle a toy out of that one as well?
