King Austin and his Royal Boo Boo

Once upon a time, in a living room not so far away, King Austin was playing in his castle under the table in the living room. All of a sudden, a strong gust of wind blew and he fell over... right into the stone fireplace wall!! We heard two loud thumps, a brief silence, then the worst blood-curdling scream EVER!!!

Over the next twenty four hours, King Austin seemed a little less like himself. He was mean, aggressive and clingy. He had a temp, said his head hurt, didn't want to eat and sitting in Mommy's lap was the only thing that made him happy. We finally decided to head to the local emergency room to make sure his sweet head could retain the crown.

Austin did really good at the hospital. We entertained him with coloring, books, animals and glove balloons. He had a head CT to check his royal brains and everything came back fine. He's still a little cranky and clingy today but I guess when you're the king, you're allowed! The best thing we heard at the royal hospital... He's a boy. This won't be his LAST concussion!!

Okay, this was a cute post--even though it's no fun that he got a concussion!!! I'm glad he's doing okay now.
