We've had quite an adventure this afternoon. I finished helping Sam with his homework and went to put my feet up. When I left the boys Sam was playing nicely with Seth and Landon was finishing his homework at the kitchen table. I had just sat down on my bed when Seth let out his hurt/angry cry. So I sighed and went to see what the problem was. When I reached the living room I saw that Seth's face was covered in blood from the nose down so I picked him up and raced him to the sink to clean him up and see what the problem was. I assumed that he had fallen down and hit his nose causing it to bleed. After at least two minutes of trying to wash him with cold water the blood was still streaming out of his face so I grabbed a towel hoping that it would help the blood clot. I turned him around and saw that it wasn't just his nose but his lip too. I ran him to the back bedroom to Chris to see if he thought Seth needed to go get stitches He calmed me down and helped me see that it's not as bad as I thought. Although, Seth constantly rubbing his nose and licking his cut lip is not helping the clotting process. He did stop to help me take some pictures.





When I asked Sam what happened he told me that he didn't see it. I think (from the sounds I heard) the boys started running around the room and Seth tripped and his face landed on his metal airplane toy.
Now he's as happy as can be. He's even tried to wrestle with Chris, but we're trying to keep his body calm considering everytime he touches his face it starts to bleed again. Ahhh the joys of being a mother of boys.

Spencer thinks Seth looks exactly like Chris (especially when the shock collars are in place).
Boys are so funny. The other day Chase fell and cut his lip and Chase was crying not because of the blood but because I wasn't letting him play while his lip stops bleeding!
