A few days after Christmas, Taylor accidentally dropped a 4-pound weight on Drew's toe. It made for an eventful morning. Andrew and the other three kids were getting ready to go skiing. So we got them off, and then Drew and I headed to Instacare. I didn't know what to do for it, and it was barely hanging on. It looked really bad. We ended up waiting for quite a while. Once we got back, the cleaned it and took an x-ray to make sure that it wasn't broken. Then they had to give her some shots in her toe to numb it. That was the worst part. She screamed and fought so hard. They had to call in another nurse to help hold her down. I felt so bad. She was such a trooper. We picked up some lunch on the way home and had a picnic in the family room. She walked funny for a while, but finally realized it wasn't hurting anymore. Her toenail still hasn't grown in all the way, but it's fine. I hope I never have to do that again--it was awful!!
A took a picture of her toe while we were waiting to see the doctor. It was gross.
Her bandage after. So cute!!
