Ouchy Ouchy

Triston stuck his hand in between the broiler drawer of the oven and the door of the oven while the oven was on. It was so sad. This is right after, before we went to the hospital.

Back side of hand. The blisters looked about 10 times worse than this a couple days later.
We put cold water on a highchair tray with ice. We thought he was doing ok, but then he would take his hand out of the water and hold it up to me or Jack and just cry and then put it back in the water. He kept doing this and it was like he was saying "Do Something!" That's when we decided to take him to ER.
Home from the hospital and all bandaged up.

He felt so much better with some pain medicine and burn cream on his hand.
Triston wouldn't stop biting the gauze so we have to keep a sock over it.
This is the blister the next day.

Side view. You can see how tall they are.
On Wednesday Triston got the gauze off his hand while in his crib and bit the blister and popped it. So now we have to take extra care of it.

This little boy is such a trooper. He doesn't let this slow him down one bit. He is still walking all and crawling all over the palce and playing like before. It doesn't seem to hurt him, he just gets annoyed with the sock.
We have an appointment to see another doctor, a surgeon to make sure everything is healing properly.
