Adventures in the ER

Saturday night we had quite an interesting evening with Brayden. One mistake of ours is that we have usually let Brayden ride his bike without a helmet. We didn't really see to much of a problem in that if he was right in front of the house. Well.......Saturday came and we (Chris and I) now have a completely different view on it. Brayden was riding his bike around the street and was going down our neighbors steep driveway (which he does all the time) and I think lost control. He ran head on into a basketball hoop at the bottom of the drive way.

We ended up taking him in and they did a bunch of tests on his and he is just fine. They said that he would be really bruised up for a while too.....and he didn't even have that. Needless to say, he no longer rides without a helmet.

The pictures dont even do it justice. Chris said it was the worst goose egg he has ever seen. Amazing!

Here he is Monday night and he looks great other than a little scratch on his forehead. Tough boy he is.
