Jayden's hangnail infection

So I guess Jayden got an infection from a hangnail, and it was quite the experience.  This is the before picture, and it doesn't even do it justice.  Poor guy, it was so swollen and while he didn't complain about it, he wouldn't let me anywhere near it.












So we went to the dr, and they drained it and gave us some antibiotic and ointment to clear the wound and infection.  It was pretty traumatic.  Uncle Paul was there helping me, and I think he was almost as freaked out as Jayden was.  Here is the after picture, a few days after we saw the dr., and after it had healed a little bit.  I sure have tough kids, but it was something I'd rather not experience  again!
