The Injury

Thursday night Noelle fell on her arm. She had 3 x-rays on Friday morning, but they couldn't tell if she had fractured her elbow or not because of the swelling. For the time being, she is wearing a splint and a sling as a precaution. We will meet with an orthopedist sometime in the next week to determine what to do. She might need a full cast, or she could just have to continue to wear the splint and sling for a little while longer. If she is doing well and they don't see a fracture on follow-up x-rays, she might not have to wear anything and be able to resume normal activities. She is doing very well and isn't complaining of pain much at all. Please pray that she heals quickly. We'll keep you posted.




Noelle didn't want me to take her picture, but I did it anyway. That's why she's crying. Notice the difference in her sling though. This is one of many examples of what an incredible mother Sarah is. She sewed on the fabric of Noelle's choice to make her sling cool. What a great idea!


Not only did Sarah make Noelle's sling cool, she made a cool sling for Baby Madeline.

yep. Sarah is the best. You don't have to try and convince me. I'm looking forward to lunch on Wednesday!
