Broken Leg

Yesterday, Adelyn was walking along the cupboards in the kitchen when she fell (walking on the floor, not on the counter- we had to clear that up so we dont get in trouble with the child protective services) . She tried to lean on an open cupboard, which gave way, and Adelyn twisted her leg during the fall. Needless to say, she now has a fractured right leg. We spent the day trying to get a hold of doctors (who apparently take fridays off) and figure out what exactly was wrong. Addie is now a proud owner of a half-cast (one we can take off for bath- yea!). She should heal in 3-4 weeks, much faster than an adult. She has been a trouper through the whole thing, hardly crying and even forgetting that her leg is broken (she kept trying to stand up- ouch!). Scott gave Addie her first sucker. It was like turning on a faucet... she was drooling so much! Yum!

Oh my goodness, she broke her leg?! Yikes! Not a fun thing at all. She's so brave though. And isn't it amazing that they heal so fast? That happened to my nephew too. Good luck, I hope she is feeling okay!

What kind of parents are you? Letting your child walk around on the floor all by herself..you should be ashamed!! :):) That is too bad about Addie's leg hopefully all will go well with the healing and the best part is...she's so little she won't even remember it!
