Good Times

We had such a blast with everyone! The bummer was that OUR kid was the terror this time & not my nephews! I had way to many pictures so that's why I made the slide show. Don't worry family I will send all the pictures to you through Kodak. We love & miss everyone and can't wait till next time!

Nursemaid's Elbow

Don't know what that is!? Yeah me either until 2 nights ago. We were walking out of Carl's Jr. and Dan was holding Carter's hand when he fell to the ground because he didn't want to go in his car seat! So Dan pulled him up by his left wrist and pulled the elbow out of the socket. Carter started crying really bad so we knew something was really wrong, not just a boo boo. We then went to Target and he just sat in the cart and didn't move the arm. We didn't know if we should go to the ER or not so we went home. We tried to put his pajamas on and change his diaper and he screamed bloody murder! So then we went to the ER and luckily didn't have to wait for hours to be seen. The doctor checked him out and said he had nursemaid's elbow and it can happen from swinging a kid by his arms, or pulling his arm. It doesn't happen to children after they are 5 and is most common in 1-3 year olds. So Carter sat on my lap and the doctor put the elbow back in the socket and he cried so hard! :( Then everything was all good and we had our little terror back. Sorry if this was boring but I wanted to type it out since this is kind of a journal. Someone reading this probably learned something new!
