Savannah and Jacob got one too.

This is the only pic I have of Jacob before. We didn't plan on him getting one. This is him after "winning" (we never win races so winning 4 times and still losing is winning) the Pinewood Derby.
Savannah kept asking for one but I kept telling her that she said she wanted to grow it out. And she would be sorry if she cut it but she kept saying "not uh" So I gave in and let her. She picked an A-line cut.

Here are the afters. I don't think the pics do them justice but here they are anyway.

Sum up

Ok I am gonna try to recap on the last month since I keep forgetting to blog. I fixed my computer about a week after Jeremiah spilled water on it. I did it myself, and it works great. I back up my stuff about every other day since I had to lose some data when my computer fried.

After I was sick Chase and Jeremiah were sick at the same time as me and Jeremiah was so sad I don't think he has been sick before he was hot and didn't know how to handle it so he just cried and cried. Chase just laid on the couch and was fine the next day like the others. But Jeremiah was sick for a couple days and I was sick for a week and then had a cough after that for at least two more weeks. Gillian got sick two more times throwing up both times and had a fever too. In fact her stomach hurt today and Jason stayed home with her from church. Everyone else went today. Yeah!!! We have missed a lot of church this last month or so since we all passed around being sick.

I have really gotten into scouts. (after being sick I was determined) I finished all my training. Bought the whole uniform and even bought most of the boys uniforms. (their still missing neckerchiefs but have everything else) I have read most of the books and ordered one more and got Jacob on a great start to getting his Bear. I am trying to help Chase catch up. (I wasn't at good of a scout mom before now) He is now a tenderfoot. And working hard to finish some Astrology stuff. Both boys went on a camp thing. Chase went camping and helped make food and went hiking and everything. Jacob went on a day camp which is just a hiking and other things day. He passed off like 3 or 4 things going and I let him take my NEW camera and he got pics too. (he didn't even break or lose it)

oh and on a small note I got my nails done again (been doing them since Christmas) and I had them done in green. ya know for my B-day...

Is it possible to type while laying down?

I guess we will see.

First Savannah was sick. All she had was a fever so I kinda didn't believe her. All I saw was a little girl that had a fever and "couldn't possibly" feel that bad. She laid on the couch for a day and kept "claiming" that she was sick.

Gillian was next but she was throwing up. And saying her tummy hurt. Crying. Throwing up, crying, over and over. All day. Then around 2 she threw up again and all of a sudden she was sleeping. Must be nice to just go to sleep whenever you want. Then around 4 she woke up and had a "I'm gonna throw up everywhere" look. And I thought to myself, Great now I am gonna have to clean up throw up. But she held it until she got to the toilet. And she did throw up a lot. Then after that she was smiling and happy and looked like Gilli again. She was fine after that.

Then Jacob woke up the next morning and I found him on the bathroom floor moaning. He said his tummy hurt and he felt like he was gonna throw up. So I said just stay in here until you do and then maybe you will feel better. Gilli just kept throwing up until she felt better, just keep throwing up Jacob until you feel better. So he stayed home and was laying on the couch all day, sick. But at bed time he came up to me and said, Mom you didn't feed me all day. I am hungry are you gonna feed me? So I told him when you are sick I will not feed you unless you actually tell me you are hungry especially when you have been throwing up. Eat something and go to bed. So he ate and went to bed, and was fine the next day.

But the weird thing is Jason came home from work that same day saying he felt sick and went to bed, sleeping all day but still made me take him to school. (if you miss days it counts off your grade) Then he came home and didn't go to work. Sleeping all the next day too. Then yesterday I woke up and he was still sick. And I felt really tired for some reason. And achy. So I got the 3 kids off to school. And fed the 2 little ones, and put a movie on. Told then mommy didn't feel very good so she was just gonna lay down for an hour or so and then we could play. I woke up and heard the kids talking so I went down stairs and saw the 3 big kids were home. So I looked at the clock and it was almost 4pm. I had slept all day and didn't even realize it. I felt awful but I didn't know I was that bad. I asked the kids where Daddy was and no one knew so I called him and he was at the Urgent care cuz he wasn't getting better after 3 days. They told him he had an upper respiratory infection. So after he came home he went back to bed and slept waking up later telling me that "I" need to go get his prescription for him since he was too sick to "get back up". So even though I felt like crap and knew I was sicker or at least the same. I got bundled up (two shirts, sweat pants and a jacket) and went to the car to drive "all the way" to Fry's. Two whole miles seemed like forever. So as I got in the car that had been sitting in the sun all day. I realized I felt so much better sitting in there with all the windows up and three layers of clothes on. So I sat in there for a "couple" minutes. (I don't actually know how long it was and I think I fell asleep for a while. Seriously it felt SO good!) Then I drove to Fry's (I think I went 30 the whole time? I don't actually remember) Then walking to the pharmacy was so hard I think I looked like a grandma that has a bad back and legs and everything else. I finally got to the counter and asked for his meds. There was no one there and it still seemed like forever. But I got them and walked...very slowly... back to the car. All the while thinking, Why in the world do they keep Fry's SO DANG COLD??? Then getting back in the car. I realized how good it felt again and sat there for while, again. Honestly it felt SO GOOD! I somehow got home. I don't really remember driving. Threw his meds at him and went back to bed. I took my temp and it was only 102... you know not too bad...ya right. So then Jason comes downstairs and he's dressed for school! yes I said dressed for school! I had to go get his meds but he could go to school! I was so mad that I ...started falling asleep...I guess I was more sick than I cared to be mad. Oh well. Then he asks me to read the instructions cuz he can't. So what do I do? I sit up and read the whole front and back instructions. Typed in like 6 font. And cant find any dosage instructions. So I tell him either call or just take one and be done. I don't care anymore. So he says just give me one, so I pull the pills out and there on the back is how to take them...very frustrated now. Anyway. He left for school and I fell asleep on the couch. (Its better then in my bed upstairs, right?) The kids woke me up at hmm I don't even know what time it was but it was dark out. That cant be good. They all claimed they were hungry. Well let me think when was the last time I fed you? hmm I haven't ate anything all day so....yesterday? I really don't remember right now. So I asked Chase to just make ramen for everyone. He looked at me like I asked him to cure cancer or do brain surgery! So I tried to walk him through it as best I could from the couch and being halfway asleep. I don't remember how it turned out I think I was sleeping again?? Then Chase woke me up to tell me it was bedtime so I told the kids to go to bed. And turn off all the lights on there way. Hoping that after all this time they could do that by themselves. Nope. They were fighting and yelling and so I tried to yell over them to get them to stop and made my head hurt so bad, that I started crying and all my kids just looked at me like What Did We Do??? Then I saw them all go to bed. (NTS: cry if you want your kids to do something) Then I woke up "later" hungry so I tried to walk to the kitchen, do you know how hard this is when you haven't walked for half the day? Made the chicken noodle soup I bought the day before for Jason. ha ha And had to SIT UP while eating it, can you believe I had to sit up after walking all the way to the kitchen?!? UG! Then after I ate I felt a little better and realized that I stunk really bad! Maybe it was the three layers of clothes and comforter I was bundled in all day??? So I walked upstairs....slowly....and took my clothes off....slowly....and started to take a shower then Jeremiah came in and said, "Me ower?" so being the nice...stupid mommy, I say yes. So he takes his diaper off and starts to come in and then says, "no ower, mommy" and ran off. Then Gilli came in crying and said she wants to shower with me and you think I would have learned the first time, but I didn't. So I say yes again. And she cried the whole time either about how the water felt or the soap in her eyes, it wasn't she just cried that it was. Then I made her get out and she just cried that her towel wasn't keeping her warm. Oh my I think I have had all I can handle of the crying! Then Jason walks in and asks Gilli if she wants help. (if Jason is home then its midnight, oops) so he help the kids get back into bed while I finished showering. And we all went to bed. I thought that since I felt a little better last night that I would feel better this morning but I feel worse again. I have blown my nose a gazillion times and and I have coughed so many times that my lower abdomen hurts before I even start to cough again. And even while being in the fetal position.

So if you want to come over and clean my house and take care of my kids and have a chance of getting sick, then come over, please.

PS this only took me 2 hours to type and I stopped a couple times cuz I was too tired to type. It is actually 10:45 now.

Family Update

Chase Jacob and Savannah are doing well in school. Chase is in 6th grade. Jacob is in 3rd grade and Savannah is in 2nd.

Chase has to walk to school while Jacob and Savannah ride the bus. This school doesn't let 5th or 6th ride the bus. Chase thinks he is going to make a magic______??? its a new thing every week once it was a wand then it was a car then a house. I never know what he thinks he is gonna creates when he grows up. lol

Savannah has a hard time wanting to go to school in the mornings but after I make her go she is fine and comes home excited. Other than that she is doing great. Most of the time. She likes to start fights with Chase and egg him on to hit her so he gets in trouble and if I tell her to go to time out because I know that she started it she likes to say I don't love her. lol She's such a drama queen.

Jacob is having a hard time with soccer this year he moved up a level and the field is twice as big and there are more rules and He isn't on a team with any of his friends so he is starting completely over. He gets really tired and has a hard time keeping up with the ball. I like it and I don't. I like that he has to work harder to get what he wants so he learns that not everything comes easy. But I don't like that he has to learns it all at once.

Gillian is doing very well with her letters and numbers. She can count to 20. I asked her to count higher but she told me know. lol She likes to tell me what she "cant" do. And even knows what all the letters look like. She can even "read" words. That she has seen before. I think she is guessing but you know what I mean. She is so loud and energetic. She is also jealous, possessive, and persistent. She has such bad mood swings I cant handle it most of the time. I get so frustrated that I have to either walk away or let Jason handle it. She will play with Jeremiah all day and then all of a sudden she is in a fight to death battle over one toy that she just has to have. She can pretend all day that she is a puppy or a ..... and I mean all day I try to go to the store and she tells me (she happens to be a talking dog) she cant go to the store because dogs aren't aloud or because dogs cant wear shoes. or whatever her reason is. lol So I convince her to dress and put shoes on to go to the store and when we get there she barks at all the shoppers while I shop.

Jeremiah says "I love you too" and "Thank you" He also says "Me" if I ask who spilled or who made a mess. He likes to take a nap at 10am and if he can't he likes to scream/cry until he finally does. He screamed all the way to Jacob's soccer game. (40 min drive) Basically the whole soccer game (1 hour) And most of the way home until he fell asleep. Then I had to stop at the store and he woke up and cried the rest of the way home and then at home until about an hour later he finally fell asleep. He can go for hours. But he is the cutest baby I know. He likes to climb on things like the couch and then jump off to the floor and say "uh!" like it took a lot of work. He likes to say please to get stuff likes treats but when you say no he cries and pulls on you until he falls down and keeps crying. He says ya and no to everything. He likes to say "stop" if you do something he doesn't like and then when I say "you stop" He says it back only it sounds like "OOO stp."

Jason is liking the new drive to work since its only 5 min. I am liking the new house since I can section things off better to clean. Upstairs and downstairs and kitchen and laundry are easier now. Since they are farther away from each other so I am less likely to move from room to room on accident (My mind likes to wander when I clean and if I pick up a kids toy and put it away I used to start cleaning their room) We are all getting used to the new neighborhood and the noises and sounds that go with it. The neighbor in front of us has a yard sale/fry bread sale every weekend. The neighbor next to her washes their dogs every night and it smells like wet dog when you go outside, well only if it doesn't cover up the manure smell. There are at least 5 dairy farms just south of us. Well anyway that is life for us right now.

Happy Birthday Savannah!

My little drama queen! Poses in every picture. Has to push for whatever she wants and yell and scream until she either gets it or figures out she lost.

Happy 6th Birthday! I love you!

2008 in review

This year has been better than the last. (but then again last year really sucked so it wasn't hard to top)
Jacob turned 6 and started 1st grade this year. His teacher says he is doing great at everything and excels in most subjects especially reading. Jacob played soccer this year for the very first time. He excels at this too...if only he wouldn't hog the ball and block his own players, but for his first time playing ever I think he did great.

Chase turned 9 and has been doing scouting for a while. He really gets into it. He still loves to draw and does so every chance he gets. On every paper he can find. He acts goofy every chance he gets to just the other day I saw him doing a weird dance for Jeremiah and when I asked what he was doing he just said "dancing".

Gillian turned 2 and is still in nursery she loves it and yes they did start teaching a lesson and reading books and other stuff. she can pretty much repeat everything you say and tells me things like " I go get my baby you stay here. I be right back." I love it so much. She however does get Savannah's attitude sometimes, and tells me "no I don't want to, I hate you." She hasn't been potty trained but I am working on this slowly I just get so frustrated when I sit with her for 15 minutes and NOTHING! Then I get her off the potty and she pees, but we will keep working slowly She cant stay in diapers forever, right.

Jeremiah was born in September and is growing fast. He can already roll over from front to back. Hold himself up in the Bumbo seat. And do the superman on his tummy. He is cooing like crazy, and whacking everything with his arms. He still nurses every two hours but sometimes gets a 4 hour nap in at 7pm.

Savannah turned 5 and started kindergarten, and loves it. Her teacher says she does great in class and everyone likes her. She sounds out every letter in a word to try to figure it out. I love it. She is still so small that the school clothes that they sell didn't fit her so she had all dresses for school. She did get her first thing of lice from school, and it took two weeks to get rid of it all. She does get her moms attitude sometimes and wont do anything for me but I guess I have to expect that from a 5 year old

Jason still has the same great job. Even through the cut backs. We were lucky. I has even managed to keep getting 40 hours a week even with the economy being slow. Jason turned 36 this year, and I pick on him for being so old all the time. :) Jason works hard to keep us with all the things that a growing family needs. We may not get everything that we want but who does?

I have been doing fine this year. I again forgot about my goals I set last year but this isn't something new. I did learn some new crafting things. I learned some new cooking skills too. I also read some books too so I did accomplish some things I wanted to do. Just not the real important stuff. (Of course if I go off of Helena's comment I pretty much don't need goals for this year since I can cross them off with her thinking :) thank Helena) Also I do have to say that since I started blogging more I feel good about keeping up with all this family stuff that should be journaled(sp). I turned 27 and didn't really notice since its not really a big deal. I always thought birthdays would be a big deal but the last 2 years haven't really mattered. I did accomplish one big goal that I didn't tell anyone which was getting my recommend current again so I do feel great about that. I guess I need to be a lot less worrisome this year I think my problem is I want to have everything done and perfect Right Now and if it isn't I get frustrated and stress, but anyway this is what I sum up our year as.

Makes me cry

I wasn't going to post this because it makes me cry every time I see it or think about it. But Saturday I planned on cleaning Savannah's room (I left the whole morning open for this) So Savannah was taking things to the garbage and recycle and give away buckets all morning then I hear Gilli crying so I get up from the floor (because that's the only way to clean her room) I see Chase holding hair and he has his "amazed" look on his face I ask what happened and Savannah says (rather meanly) SHE PULLED MY HAIR! So I assume that Gilli pulled her hair out ....but then why is SHE the one crying so I ask what happened next she says (more mean than before) SO I PULLED HER HAIR! SO I look at Gilli and she literally has a bald spot in the back of her head! I BIG BALD spot I might add. Savannah was so mad that Gilli tugged on her hair that she pulled so hard that she ripped out a huge spot of hair. And every time I brush or see the spot I cry all over again....I was going to take a picture but I really don't want to remember this that well.

1st Day of School!

I was actually nervous today I have never been nervous before. Chase is in 4th grade and I have never been nervous for him just excited. He even went to preschool. but for some reason I was so nervous for Savannah. I kept thinking I would get a call that she was crying and couldn't handle being gone for so long. But she did fine all day and everything went well for her first day. Chase said his first day was boring, and he forgot his lunch in his class during lunch time. Jacob said he had fun. Savannah did say she missed me but she still had fun. Here are my pics of 1st day at school.

And here is Gilli playing all by herself. She did just fine too. of course Daddy was here all day so we will see if she does well tomorrow too.

Savannah's first REAL haircut



I have trimmed bangs and just the ends of here hair before but never really cut off length but I was looking at it and it was really ratty looking so I trimmed a lot off this time. So she doesnt know how much I really took off I just told her I had to trim the back since she crys when I mention cutting her hair. but here it is.

Girls

Gilli is on my bed right now telling her bear "stop" She hugs it and then pulls it away and says "stop" over and over. It is so cute.

If you don't watch it Savannah will give you a "beat you up sandwich". Yup thats what she calls a knuckle sandwich. Cuttie Patootie.

Lots of stuff

So I went through Savannah's room the other day and we cleaned it, and then went through toys and stuff to get rid of. So then I went through her shoes and put the big ones away ans the small ones either to Gilli or get rid of. and then I noticed she was missing a bunch so I told her to look for them. So as she's looking I notice all the shoes that are missing another are all right shoes. She is missing all her left shoes?!? Don't really understand but whatever.

Then Savannah likes to say cute things she used to say
"My tummy's hungry, come on come on, why won't you feed me, pthpthpthpth :P" Just yesterday she said
"My tummy is eating me."
So Jason asked her what do you mean? And she plainly said "Its eating me."

Jacob like to say things with "ing" on the end. Like Chase is going boyscouting, or lets go scootering. Its very cute.

I feel bad but Chase doesnt do cute things he just does things like hit his brother and sisters. Choke Jacob. yell at me. brake things. throw things. Scream. Lie. Not do his homework.

......
Then, I hate getting on the freeway in the morning because it is always backed up and people don't like to wait in line so they try to speed up and cut you off. So I never let them but people in front of me do and it annoys me. But occasionally they don't let them in and the "cutter" just drives in the straight only lane and turns anyway cutting off someone by taking the lane. But today the guy in front of me cut the "cutter" off which was so funny to see because he made the "cutter" so upset and swerve into the dirt. Maybe next time he will wait in line. lol

UUGG!

Ok so I didn't even want to go to Chase's concert by the time that Thursday came. But I did just because I am the mom that goes to all the concerts and things I am supposed to. So Jason doesn't feel good and says I can leave Gilli with him thats nice since she would just want to run around anyway. So I just take Jacob and Savannah and we get there early. Great! I like to be early so I can get a good seat. NOT! They planned a concert right before Chase's So even though we got there early to find a good seat, we all had to wait outside in the cold until the concert is done. UUGG! Then after its done we have to shove our way in and try to beat everyone at the same time for a seat. Then after we find a seat. Jacob and Savannah tell me they need a drink in the back of the room by the door, we just came in. UUGG! So I tell them I can see them go quickly and come back. 10 min later they come back and Savannah is crying that she didn't get a big drink because Jacob didn't help her. UUGG! So I tell them to just wait. So everyone sits down and the concert starts and all of a sudden everyone comes to the front to take pics and they just stand there. So no one else can see. UUGG! So now I have to be rude and tell them to sit down. I try to get some pics in and they don't come out right since I am far back. So I tell Jacob and Savannah stay here and I will be right back. I go up front and SIT DOWN and take a couple pics. I come back and Jacob and Savannah are being horrible! And for the rest of the time they were horrible! UUGG! Climbing on things, talking loud, laying on the floor, whining! I was so embarrassed, and still they would not be good. So its finally over and we go to get Chase and the music teacher says, oh no wait some more while I call the teachers names and then come get your student. So I wait and wait and guess who she calls last! Mrs. Wold! UUGG! Yup we were last again! I hate concerts and I hate trying to take my kids I think next time I will just go by myself and then I only need one seat and not 3 to 5.

My busy weekend!

Alright so I should have posted this a while ago but I've been kinda busy...
lets see since Saturday (after being sick for 4 days) I had Jacob's birthday party, had game night with the Davis', Church early morning, games on Sunday too. No school on Monday so that was busy (park with Moe), (thats when I French braided Savannah's hair for the first time) Then after that I was just plain tired and didn't really do a whole lot, but anyway Jacob's birthday party...
I didn't really plan the best again but I did eventually get invitations out (only a week late) then I actually got back RSVP's thats nice So then I actually think about the food and cake and time. Which I normally forget. So then I normally have to have the party late and then I am tired and dont really want to do it. and also I forget about food and end up trying to pick it up right before the party making myself late to my own party. But this time I had a good time, had the cake done early (made one so I wouldn't have to pick it up for said reason) Knew what I wanted for food and had Jason's help to pick it up early. Then at the party I watched all the kids while Jason was in charge of food. So when the kids got there I took them to the park while Jason cooked hot dogs and then we came to eat. Then back to the park while Jason cleaned and got cake ready. Then we cleaned up and did presents and then parents came it was fun and still short and sweet. I enjoyed it very much. Hardly any stress. Thats the best part.

So then I went to clean up and this is what I see. Gilli sitting the tote and I say what are you doing? And she just smiles at me. ha ha what a goof ball! I t was so funny to me that the big messy room didn't even bother me.

Where's Rudolph?


This is my favorite pic so far. Jacob always gives me a funny face and Savannah never looks at me but at least I got them to hold still long enough to take a pic!

Um, anybody see what I see?

Ok so I haven't even told Jason this yet, but after I got back from taking the boys to school this morning I drove up to the house and saw that the door was still cracked open. Like I leave it for the kids when I tell them to hurry up and shut the door when they come out. Well I realized Savannah was the last one out the door this morning. So she apparently didn't remember to shut the door. But the catch is that no one even noticed or even went into our house so, I guess our neighborhood isn't so bad. because I don't think I would find my house the same in a bad neighborhood. But again I don't try to leave our door open on a regular basis.

Savannah part two


Ok so I have been dreading today. Since I'm really not looking
forward to taking Savannah to have her arm broken to be fixed.
But this morning I make sure I call the doctor at 8 to get an
appointment today. (so I can be done with the whole thing
and just start to forget) Well the Orthopedic doctors don't
open until 8:30 so I wait another 30 minutes, call back. She tells me they should be able to get her in no problem 'How old is she?' "Three I say" 'oh well we don't do pediatrics you have to call a pediatric orthopedic to see her.'
So I call the number she gives me and they don't open until 9. So I wait 30 more minutes. In the mean time I figure I'd look online for another one but to my dismay It is more difficult to find one from my insurance web site than I think. Then Carisa calls to help out and gives me a number for a ped. ortho. at Phx. Children's Hosp. So I call them and she says 'I don't know if we can get you in let me check and call you back.' "great, ok, call me back." 25 minutes later she still hasn't called so I call her back. She says 'Oh ya we cant get you in but I called Dr White and they can get you in so they will call you any minute.' "Ok ya right!" But they did
call like 2 minutes later. But she sounds bewildered. Asking tons of questions. 'How did you find the other doctor?' "Online the Ins. web site." That's weird she says, he just got his license and shouldn't be practicing until the end of the year.' "Um what!" She moves on and I forget about it. So she finds out she can get us in around One so I bathe Savannah, braid her hair dress her nice so she feels special. Remember its not going to be fun for her.
The girls come over to watch the rest of the kids while I take her. I forget I need to go to the store for lunch stuff so right around noon I remember and rush to the store and pick up things for the girls to make while I'm gone.
Finally we get going. We get there early like I want Jason shows up for support. I am thrilled! I am now thinking if it becomes too much I can leave the room and I am not abandoning her. So we get paper work done. They call us first. I am thrilled again since I normally wait forever. We get back there and the nurse takes off her splint, says the doctor will be in shortly. Amazing he was there in just a few minutes. He says 'all we need to do is cast it and leave it for 3 weeks.'
"Uh what? I thought you had to re-brake it?!"
'No why would you think that?'
"The Urgent care made it sound like I was a bad mom for not taking her in right away and that it got worse because of it."
'No' he says look here this is where she broke it'
I look and he shows me a line that he now tells me is just a bad fracture that would actually heal on its own but if she were to hit it again it would probably actually brake. So just cast it and let it heal.
So the nurse comes back in puts a white mesh, sock like thing on and puts gloves on, wets the cast, (which is made of fiber-glass) wraps it on, lets it dry, and were done. Just need to come back in three weeks and remove it.
.
.
.
.
Do you know how frustrating it is to find out I dreaded over this all weekend and made myself feel like a bad mom for days when nothing was really wrong and she was just fine...Anyway all is well now and she like that it is pink. But she keeps telling me her arm should be fine now and I should take it off. lol

Savannah...

Ok well last Saturday (Sept. 29th) Savannah fell off the Igloo thing (jungle gym) across the street and landed on her arm. She could move it and play with it so I thought everything was fine. But every time she hit it she would scream and cry that it really hurt but she didn't want to go to the doctor. So I put it off thinking it was fine. but I was getting frustrated that she kept hurting it so I decided today we would just go to Urgent care and pay a co-pay and for x-rays even if it wasn't broken and feel stupid and just at least know its fine. Well 3 hours later they come in and say, "Its broken"
Uh what how can that be??? So I have to take her to an orthopedic doctor on Monday and have them re brake it and set it since we waited a week to have her seen.... Ya that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I cant believe I screwed up so bad. I feel so bad. The only thing that makes me feel a little better is that Savannah doesn't seem to care. After we put a splint
on and wrapped it with 2 ace bandages and put a little carrier on it we came home and while I wasn't looking she ripped it all off because, and I quote, "Its in the way, Mom! I don't like it." So she doesn't want the sling on and she doesn't seem to notice its even broken. But come Monday she will notice and have to keep a cast on from the arm pit to the fingers.
I really feel bad, I feel so extremely bad. I actually hate myself right now for not trusting my instincts and just taking her to the ER last Saturday when she did it. UUGGG!
