A Broken Wrist

Laura fell off our slide (she was standing at the top and Josh moved it) a few weeks ago and broke her wrist. It's really all my fault. I was telling a friend of mine earlier in the day how I was surprised we had never had any broken bones (if you don't count Laura's broken toe and the time I'm pretty sure Lia broke her nose), even after some pretty good crashes on bikes and scooters. Well... later that day we got our first broken bone requiring a cast. Nate took her to the doctor and to the store after to pick out a treat. Because she was with dad, she got to pick out a toy too which she promptly put a cast on using old sock when she got home. She wanted to take the splint off the first day because she was SWEATING SO BAD! But thankfully she's been great about it since.

Laura, what a bummer! I'm just glad that it is your left wrist so that you can still do you school work. It's always fun to get a different color cast. Hopefully it will be off by Halloween! Lots of Love. Aunt Lulu

What a cute dada Nate is to take her to get a treat and a toy! And I love that Megan crawled into Josh's bed. By the way, I love your new family picture!
