OUCH...

I must say "STOP RUNNING" at least a thousand times a day.  Well it is all for a reason right, one day they eventually will trip, fall, or this time....stub a toe.  Colton and Nick were going to play a little street hockey in the playroom (still not sure why they don't get that that is an outside sport) and Buddy ran after the tennis ball making Colton run faster...right into the threshold of the playroom and stubbed his toe.  He actually sliced his toenail right in half and pretty much off...oh yes.  I wish I had a video of Nick screaming in horror and Colton crying while he blames Buddy...it was Oscar winning.  We cleaned it up, called the doctor and they said to come in the next morning to have the nail removed.  Oddly enough the toe didn't really bother Colton because the nail wasn't really on and since it has split the bleeding didn't cause his toe to swell.  The most painful part was when they had to numb his toe to remove the nail but I promised him a smoothie when it was all over.  He was a trooper.  We went to 7-11 and he got a coca-cola mixed with sprite icee and I got a double gulp - diet coke (inappropriate size people...Colton said watching me drink this thing all day was the funniest).  His toe looks nasty and I don't know how a toenail will grow back but they say it will.  He feels fine and is back to business as usual.  

Warning:   some graphic toe shots below for those of you into that thing.
