Ouch!!

James has been spending a lot of time on travel for work lately which leaves Max and I home to party by ourselves. The first day of James extensive traveling saga Max got stung by a bee except I didn't know what happen.... Here is the story.
Max was on the floor by the kitchen table being surper good. I didn't here a peep out of him while I was making us dinner. Then out of no where I hear him scream and I could tell this was a bad scream. I ran to him, did a breif look around to see what happen but I saw nothing. So I was confused as to what had just happen. He wasn't crawling around. I didn't hear him hit anything. He was just sitting there... Anyway, he was squrming in my arms like he was in a lot of pain but I had no idea where this pain was coming from and where it was hurting him. I did a search of his body to see if I could see it but had no such luck. So we walked around and I tried to distract him with water, didn't work. Food, didn't work. Outside, that didn't work as well. So I knew he was in some majore pain but I still dind't know where. So after that much I took him in the living room and we sat down. I noticed that he was touching one of his hands so I took a better look and saw his right arm was turning red and his fingures were slightly blue. that was when I started to get worried. I had all those worse possible situations run though my head. So I finally decided to take him to instacare because I wanted to be better safe then sorry. He cried the whole way there which I was glad the know he was still alive. By the time we got there his arm and hand where back to normal but his thumb was swollen. At this time I knew he was going to be ok but decided to take him anyways just to be safe... The Dr. said he looked ok (but his thumb of course) and just keep an eye on it to make sure its not an infection. When we got home we ate dinner and just relaxed. It didn't take me long to notice the dead bee on my floor right by the table leg, which is why I could not see it. Which is why Max's thumb was swollen becasuse he tried to grab it. So we ate dinner in peace knowing that everything was going to be ok, and Max went to bed and boy did he deserve a good nights rest.
So I survived my first health scare with Max and withough James. I hope he is here for the next one. I want to take a long break from those and I know I have many more to look forward to. That doesn't sound to fun. I hope this being a parent thing gets easier :)

 

This the bad bee the brought terror in my house.

 

Max's swollen thumb. I couldnt get a good picture of it because Max kept moving. He was to worried about his rice cake.
