PAISLEE OH PAISLEE

Last Wednesday night Jordan was playing with the kids on the trampoline, like he does most evening, when Paislee landed wrong and started to scream. I was standing right there and as I watched her fall I truly thought she hurt her neck. She immediately grabbed her leg and was screaming. Me, not getting the mother of the year award yet again, gave her some Ibuprofen and put her to bed. The next morning when she woke up she was still in a lot of pain so we headed to Quick Care. Three hours later, it ended up being broken. She has a clean break right under her knee. Quick care put a hard splint on and set up an appointment to see an Ortho doctor on Monday. She was pretty excited because she wanted a pink cast. Luckily there was an option to pay a little bit extra and get a water proof cast. Therefore she does have to wear a cast for the next 4 weeks, but we can still go swimming!!!

I'm sorry that I have been so far behind in blogging but.... I would like to say that we are all doing fine with the cast and life has gone back to normal, but that would be a lie. She is constantly wanting something and screaming as load as she can to let you now you are not coming fast enough. She has become even more bossy if that is even possible. If she is not yelling at someone she is asleep, which is not a good thing because she then does not sleep at night. Not to mention I swear she has to go to the bathroom every 15 minutes. Today she has learned that scooting on her but is a good thing, so I am hoping she will be a happier person soon. The doctor wants her walking on it as soon as she will, so I made her walk to the bathroom once today. That was quite a traumatic experience for her, but she made it! I love her dearly, but am so grateful that tonight is dinner out with the girls!!!
