Last night Austin had an accident! I finally realized what happened this morning because he isn't screaming his head off anymore, but we were grilling chicken outside last night and they were all outside playing. Austin said that he started to fall and tried to brace himself on the stupid grill and it was hot, and so it burned his hand! It immediatly blistered up. I got out my handy medical book that Wendy gave me awhile ago, and it said to put the hand in cold water for 30 minutes, then put Bacitracin on it and cover it up. So that is what we did. They he started crying and screaming because he said it felt like it was on fire, so I drove him 45 minutes to our freaking urgent care and the whole time he was in the backseat screaming his head off in pain. It was so terrible to not be able to help your child when they want you to! We got there, and for some reason he zonked out, but they prescribed him with something that I could rub on it that had a cooling effect to help with pain. Anyway, he is doing much better today, but it is going to take a long time to heal they said becuase it is on the palm. I feel so bad for him! He is all bummed because he can't transform his transformers for awhile. Anyway, here is little hand all blistered up....

Hang in there Austin, you'll be back to transforming those transformers in no time!
Oh that was gross. I hope he gets better. For future burns (that hopefully you won't have) HONEY! Yup, that is what mom and Grandma Lewis does and it works. ;>
