Tried out the new ER today

This morning Mason was playing around in our bathroom and was reaching for a toy in our shower. He slipped and fell face first onto the track that the shower doors sit on. Blood. Gushing. Everywhere. It was a super deep wound so off to the ER Mommy and Mason went. Part of me was just a little happy that we would get to try out this new mini-ER we have right around the corner, especailly since our visits to the Ma-nasty emergency room have been less than ideal. Picture Thanksgiving a couple years back when my 80 something grandma fell down our stairs and broke her wrist. We waited hours with people regurgitating their turkey all around us. Yum. I've also had a broken toe that was displayed for all to see on the wheelchair they insisted I use with the leg part sticking straight out so people could bump into it. Repeatedly. For hours. I could go on, but suffice it to say, that ER needed some backup and I was ready to take the challenge with one 15 month old. When I got there the parking lot had about 5 cars in it. The waiting room was completely empty. I went straight into a treatment room and all the nurses that had nothing better to do came in to ooh and ahh over my adorable maimed baby. We were in and out in just over an hour, after four little stitches. It was actually a pleasant experience, considering what we have dealt with in the past. Oh and Mason? He was a total trooper, smiling for all the ladies and only screaming when completely necessary. They even gave him a cherry popsicle that made his day. He may just try this little stunt again to get all of that attention a second time. For cosmetic reasons, I certainly hope not.
