Three down

This morning we took Ev to his pediatrician's office to get his stitches out. They didn't knock him out for this, so it was a little trickier than putting them in! The first doctor came in with a med student to assist, but she couldn't get it. Three of us were holding Evan down on the table while she made her attempts, but he was screaming bloody murder so it made the whole thing almost impossible.

Another doctor came in next and suggested that Mike and I sit side by side, with me holding Evan's body and Mike holding his head still. This worked better, and though Ev screamed, the good doctor was able to cut and pull all three stitches out. Thank you, Dr. Leung.

I hope we don't have to do that again for a very, very long time.
