Bumps

So Johnny has had these fun little...ok not so little, bumps on his head. When I first met him 5 years ago they weren't this big, but over time they have grown. I finally forced him to at least get them checked out. The doctor said they were cysts and could get them removed if he wanted but not really to worry about them. Johnny of course being the guy that he is didn't want to worry about them until they started to bother him. (plus he was afraid that he would have 10 more bald spots!) This last year they have started to bother him, so he decided to get them all removed in one day. Here is a picture of the bigger ones.
Here is an after shot of him with his funny hat. He said it didn't hurt to get them off but sleeping was another thing. He is doing much better now and is happy that his head is bump free.
I thought the top view was the best.

He will get the stitches out in 2 weeks and hopefully the scars aren't too bad. He broke the Dr. office's record of the most done in one day. The last record was 6. Anyone who knows Johnny, knows that he is a "go big or go home" person, so I guess this just proves it a little more.

Jared has a couple of those cysts on his arms. Maybe I could convince him to get his removed too.

Good job on the Thanksgiving turkey! It looks yummy.

Oh, and I love your family picture too.

Yeah after church Spencer said "did you see Johnny?" I was like "no, why?" He said he had tons of stitches all over his head, then he told me what happened...he told me fell off a rock during a climb! Yeah funny huh! I was freaking out! He was laughing so hard...I should have known! I am anxious to see what the scars look like. He doesn't have much hair to hide it!

What is it with guys and bumps? My brother had some cysts just like that removed from his forehead in high school. Did Johnny get to see them after they cut them out? My brother had one with a little star shaped bone in it. Weird? I love the picture of him rocking the cool hat!
