Brooklyn was wrestling with her daddy and she tripped over his legs right onto her elbow...OUCH!
So we took her to the ER to get it checked, and sure enough it was broken. She was the saddest little girl. They put it in a splint overnight and we got it in the cast the next day. The orthopedist said she broke both the ulna AND the radius. The ulna was in place but the radius was at a 30 degree angle. If she was older they would need to surgically set it, but thanks to her being young and still growing, they said that space will fill in with new bone. Wow! WE are hoping they can take it off just before Christmas.
Oh yeah, this was after tanner Put an epi pen through his finger- then smashed the same finger (had to get x-rays on that too) and got a black eye! WHAT KIND OF PARENTS ARE WE??? A big Thankyou to our own parents who had even more kids and managed to keep us all alive as well as happy and healthy :) (spill the beans...how did you do it?)

You guys have such an exciting life. it is hard keeping the kids from hurting themselves. I think you are doing a great job. The snow looks like it was so much fun.
So sad! It sounds like things have been interesting and exciting at your house. I don't think you can keep Boys from getting owies, it's part of being Boys or so I keep getting told. Hope things get better.
