Emma Update...

Sorry about the cryptic Twitter/IM away message I left earlier today.  I haven't had a chance to update those I was in contact today, so I'll do it for everyone here.

Yes, we did spend almost three hours in the ER with Emma today.  She was partaking in her patented couch diving, where she takes all the pillows and cushions from the living room couch and then dives on to them.  Somehow this time, she missed the soft landing zones.

Emma landed square on her face.  Because we weren't in the living room to witness it, she came upstairs with a bloody nose and got the story second hand from her and Anna.  Emma didn't look too bad, but she was babbling incoherently and was holding both sides of her head.  With the chance of her having a broken nose or even a concussion, the emergency room was our only option.

When she relaized were we were, she was ready to go home and nothing was wrong with her.  Of course, this was the most crowded that we've seen St. Charles' emergency room.  So, after a few hours waiting, Emma was free of any marks, except for some scratches on the end of her nose.  The doctor said that it looks like she only got the cartilage at the end of her nose and that otherwise, she looked fine.  I think that he may have been more worried about the scratches on her arm from a spill yesterday.

So... we're back home and just finished a nice, late, sushi dinner, after a very filling Campus Heros lunch this afternoon.  All is well.
