Broken

So for those who haven't heard the terrible story yet Madi broke her arm about a week ago. While I was at work and poor Bill was on kid duty Madi decided it would be a great idea to ride this caterpillar rocking toy down the stair. As you can tell it didn't work out very well for her. Once I got home all of Sunday I watched to see if it looked broken. She didn't act like it was hurting her too much. She was using her left hand a lot more then her right but she could move all her fingers and still used the right hand. There wasn't any swelling or bruising happening. So I thought maybe she sprained it or just hurt it a little bit. The next day there was some swelling and bruising so I took her in and sure enough it was fractured. She is definitely a brave one though cause she hasn't cried at all about it. So she will have to wear this cast for 3 weeks. Lucky for her the cast is water proof so she can still enjoy summer.

Puppy Love / Happy 4th of July!!!

Well this week had been a crazy exciting one. I have been looking on ksl everyday for awhile now for the perfect kitten for my girls and finally ended up finding my dream dog. So much for the kitty right. lol So for a early birthday present from Bill and my family I ended getting Khloe, my pomeranian puppy. She is 10 weeks old and super playful. She doesn't bark at all. So all those who say lap dogs are super yappy I honestly think it depends on the dog. Potty training has been crazy. So if anyone knows any good tricks please let me know. Madi and Kaylin are super excited to have a puppy to play with. :)
4th of July ended up being great. Good food that everyone brought. I ended up being in charge of the dessert. I made strawberry-banana pie. It turned out delicious even though I had a few trials along the way with it. lol Basically I was an airhead and started putting all the layers into the pie and realized I hadn't even cooked the pie crust yet. UUGGHH So I had to remake the layers and put them into the cooked crust again. lol But it was a hit so thanks Heidi for the recipe. :) We had fun playing games, that Becca and I dominated at, and of course fireworks at the end. My 4th was excellent I hope all of you had a great holiday too.
