1st Broken Bone...

...and hopefully the last!
Poor big sister broke her wrist!  Not only did she brake a bone she broke it while mama was at the hospital having Josie! She came to visit me at the hospital with my mom and I knew right away something was definitely wrong with her arm!  She's pretty tough when it comes to injuries and I could tell she was in pain!  
From what I've gathered I believe she was on a small stool and fell off.  She might have been reaching for a balloon and/or dancing....she's told me both stories so I guess we'll never know! :) 

Despite being in pain, Kenzie was VERY excited to meet little sis at the hospital!  She asked to hold her right away...too cute!  But poor girl was in a lot of pain and kept on crying and holding her arm!   Not exactly the visit I had envisioned!  Jeff & my mom ended up taking her downstairs to the ER!  
The ER doctor sent her home with a splint and an appointment with an orthopedist.  Turns out she broke a bone in her wrist in 2 places, but should be completely healed in about 4 weeks or so!  We go back on Monday for xrays to make sure it's healing and then it should only be 2 weeks more with the cast!

What a crazy story...esp when u guys took Kenzie "downstairs" to the ER...at least they save you a trip to the hospital?!?!
