WHAT? A broken arm

Well the King kids had their first broken bone. We actually are impressed we made it this long. On Friday night my wonderful friend came over and wanted to take the twins for an hour to give me a break(she is the best friend ever). Well about 20 minutes later she called me and said Audrey had fallen off the swing on her arm and that she is crying. She said she thinks it is dislocated and she tried to put it back in(she has done to her own kids before), but it wouldn't go in. So Bret took her to the ER and they tried to put it back in and also took some x-ray's. They said that it wasn't broken and that we needed to take her to an orthopedic surgeon ASAP. Well it was Friday night and so we waited until Monday and I was lucky enough to have gotten into one.

The doctor took a look at her and wanted to have more x-rays done right away. So we went and got more x-rays and brought them back(that is them in the back ground) and sure enough he told us that her arm was broken. In this picture the doctor had just taken off her splint from the ER and she didn't cry or anything. So of course I take advantage of a great photo op.

This is the doctor putting her in a temporary splint cause he couldn't put her in a hard cast with all the swelling. We are going to go back on Monday to find out if her wants to put her in a hard cast(he said she could have a pink one and she was so exited) or just another splint. I will let you know. But she is a trooper-even though she has a broken arm she has remained the same Audrey(I am still trying to decide if that is a good thing). It hasn't slowed her down at all and I think she likes all the attention from it. Oh yeah I am going to be posting some pictures of Corbin with another King kids first. One injury at a time.

Here comes the bride...

Ok so technically I shouldn't be in white, but I thought this picture was so funny. My mother-in-law called the other day and asked if she could use my wedding dress for a Y.W. activity. So I got it out of the box that I had it preserved in and decided to be daring and try it on. Well let's just say that it is a little tighter than it use to be and I couldn't lift my arms up-so dancing would have been out of the question. So hear you have it- I still fit into my wedding dress 5 kids later, but it was a reality check when I had to suck in to get it to zip up. lol! I was totally sucking in while Bret took the picture. He was laughing so hard. WOW I look really old.
