Maddy's First Broken Bone

On Friday, February 12th, Madelynn decided it might be a good idea to climb on top of one of her toys in the back yard. She quickly learned that wasn't the case when she slipped and fell onto her elbow on the cement and broke her arm. I, of course, won the "Worst-Mother-of-the-Year" award when I figured she was fine and proceeded to leave town for the weekend. We later had to end our trip early to return home to go to the Pediatric Urgent Care to find out she had a slight fracture to her bone (bad x-rays were taken because when we went to the Ortho Doctor the next week, they got better x-rays that showed it was cracked thru the entire bone!)

So now she has a beautiful green cast and gets lots of sympathy everywhere we go!! (If you didn't know, green is her FAVORITE color)


Here she is being quite the little poser with her cast, she insisted on posing with the vacuum!!
