Sunday night, Our little Swayzee broke her arm while playing with her little cousins. We were all having dinner at my sisters house and the kids were having a blast. They were playing together so cute. As they all ran downstairs, I commented on how well they were all getting along. (very rare!) Then I heard it! The worst sound I have ever heard out of my Swayz. She was crying like I had never heard before. The oldest person to witness what happened was my 5 year old nephew Porter. He said, "Grady and Swayzee fell off our stage!"
I felt even worse after the fact because I didn't think there was anything serious wrong. I kept telling her to stop crying:(!! Little did I know... an hour after, her left arm was triple its' regular size! I called my mother in law to get a second opinion because Weston was to a meeting, and she said she would take her to the E.R. right away! So we did. And sure enough, it was broke. Her radius bone was definately broke. MAN... you should have seen the fight we had to get her x-rays. Weston and I both had to hold her down. She's little, but strong! She was hitting the doctor and yelling, "Leave me alone, No, no no!" Until the demerol shot, then she calmed down enough for the doc to get the wrap on.
The doctor warned us about today he said the day after is always the worst but honestly, she has been so good today. Totally acting like our little Swayzee. So this morning I got her verson of what happen to what she calls her, "bwoken awm,"

Conversation-- MOM: Sweetheart, what happened to your arm?" SWAYZEE: "My push Grady ( her three year old cousin who is much much bigger than her) and he pushed me. My fall off table mom." MOM: Did Grady fall too?" SWAYZEE: "Yep, but he ok. I said sorry to my friend."

That's scary, I think I would freak! Hope you are doing good! Trish
Oh how cute! I love that she said "sorry to her friend." How precious. I am glad to hear that she is doing ok. Hope all is well with you guys.
Poor Swayzee!! That sling looks huge on her tiny little arm. In the pic that is laying down she looks like a Mini-Lindsey!! Come visit us soon! We're moving into our new house at the end of this month so you'll have to come up to SLC and see it!
