Q: Ava's First Trip to the Er

Today Jesse and I brought Ava to take antique pictures behind the local hospital. It's a photographer that travels to different cities to take these pictures. Ava was dressed in an old green antique dress with pearls and a big white hat with roses. She was soooo precious! He propped her up on a little velvet chair and gave her a tea cup. She looked fine on the chair. He made sure she was safely propped up. Well when he turned around to go to the camera, she leaned over to look at the tea set on the floor and fell face first onto the cement floor. I ran to her and picked her up. she was screaming and crying her eyes out. We took her straight to the ER and by then she was sleeping. She was so worn out from crying so hard. They checked her and said she'd be fine but just to watch her until tomorrow and make sure she eats and plays like normal. I was so heartbroken. I cried and cried. Jesse had to calm me down b/c I was crying more than her. I'm taking tomorrow off of work b/c I can't leave her so soon. I feel like I need to be near her. It really shook us up.

Oh, we have been. We went to her cousin's birthday party after and now we're home. I can just cry thinking about her. She's playing with Jesse now. I couldn't see leaving her tomorrow. I just want to hold her. Her face was puffy afterwards, but it's back to normal. She's been playing and laughing.
I got my sitting fee back. He wanted us to go back to take pictures, but I didn't want to.

Oh, yesterday we went to David's Bridal b/c I'm serving in a wedding and there was a boy in line in front of us that looked just like Finn. I had to look at the mom twice to make sure it wasn't you. lol

He felt terrible. My friend was there with her son and she said that he started taking pictures after we left of some other little girls and he had to go to the bathroom b/c he started crying.
I just couldn't see going back there.
I'm going to buy her a little dress and a tea set and take our own pics at home. She was sooooo precious. Everyone was gathered around b/c she was so cute. I have to have some pics like that.

I will, she's been cranky today. She may be hurting a little or a headache.

Dude, that's some scary sh't!! I would have had an anurism!!

Seriously. I would have sued. Accident or not.

He should have taken better precautions for a small, or any baby.

I mean, imagine if she would have cracked her cheek bone? Or something more serious than that?!?

He should at least pay the hospital bill.

He's paying the bill. They wanted me to go back to take pics. If he would have told me free pics I would have gone back, but heck no if not.
