First Visit to the ER
As the title of the last post implied, Emma had a "big girl bed", but late last night it was changed back to a crib. As a parent, yesterday evening was one of the worst! We were all outside playing on our new swingset, when Emma Kate fell off of the ladder. We were not sure just how bad it was, she seemed fine until she would put pressure on something with her wrist. We decided we needed to take her to the hospital :( I called GaGa & PaPa and they were lifesavers!! We dropped Ben off with PaPa, Uncle Colin & Nana and Gaga drove us to the hospital.~Thanks guys for everything you did for us!!
We got to the hospital around 6pm and we were looked at pretty quickly for the ER. Miss Emma had to get her first X-Rays (3 of them), she was such a champ! Then we got to play the waiting game...The film finally came back showing that she had a broken wrist :( So the nurse wrapped it up and put her left arm in a sling (which is a little big I might add). We got to leave probably by 11 or so. And we have to go visit the Orthopedic Surgeon tomorrow. Here's a pic of Emma Kate in her sling:

Oh Emma, I am so sorry! Oh Katie - I am even more sorry for you. You will remember this and she probably won't :)
Emma Kate, you crazy girl! Don't you know you are supposed to climb UP the ladder not fall DOWN it! Poor Emma & poor Katie! Hope it heals soon
I finally figured how to set up an account so I could respond. I know that this experience was not fun, but I was proud of you Katie and Chris for making Emma feel so secure that she was happy the whole time! (And especially proud of you, Kitten, for not crying.)
Love, Mom
