The excitement never ends...

What a couple of days we've had! We started off with another trip to the hospital. Brady was running laps around the house Sunday morning and fell. He barely cried and didn't act like anything was really hurting him so we just went on with business as normal. Then we noticed that he was walking funny but he's 2 and he does that sometimes being silly. So we paid more attention and checked him over and realized that his little right foot was starting to swell and at that point he started to refuse to walk at all. We headed to the new children's hospital which might not have been our best idea yet. The hospital is super close to us but it has only been open 5 days so they've only approved 1 doctor to be in the ER at a time. So we spent about 6 or 7 hours with Brady waiting to see a doctor. I have to say that poor little Brady did so well considering the pain he was in and the fact that we sat and waited forever. Getting his splint on in the hospital

Brady fractured his first metatarsal and they put a splint on it that night. Reid, my mom and I took him to a pediatric orthopedic surgeon today and they put a blue cast on him and gave him a little boot to wear to try to walk around. We go back in on the 10th to hopefully get it off. He's taking it all like a champ though. This little boy loves playing outside and loves getting wet - both of which are off limits for now. Hopefully we'll be able to keep him preoccupied until he's able to get the cast off.

The girls and I also had an appointment today. We got an A++ from the doctors. Reese was 4lbs 11oz and Madison was 4lbs 13oz which actually pushed up their due date to 7/13 so we're still on schedule for the c-section on 6/23. They also were in there practicing their breathing which was another great sign. The doctors were very happy. They said that I need to take it easy and still try to keep them in there until the 23rd but it looks like my goal of no bed rest is going to happen.

Painting....we'll be spending a lot of time doing this in the next few weeks


We hope that you all had a great Memorial Day weekend and have a wonderful week!
