Wipeout

Ben was out riding bikes with his friends last night.  I'm not completely sure what happened, but I think some not paying attention was involved.  Ben hit the curb and had his first major fall off his bike.  Thank goodness he was wearing his helmet.  Based on the bump he has on his head, I'm confident we would have been in the ER last night if he didn't have a helmet on.  

Last night just before bed:

Its not just red, thats all swollen and gross!

This morning:

The bump isn't as red today, but its still huge.

The helmet:  

The visor wont stay in place anymore and you can see a chunk of his helmet is missing in the middle.  Fortunately, hes already talking about getting a new helmet so he can ride bikes again today.
