We had an unfortunate event a few days before Christmas and this deserves its own post. After a fun day of no school, play dates, treat-making, and movie watching, Christine fell off her bed and broke her arm! She was trying to balance on her bed while reaching for her PJs in the top drawer of her dresser. She lost her balance and we think her arm got stuck in the drawer when she fell. We had just sent the girls up to get ready for the bath/shower and heard a loud thump followed by terrible cries from Christine. We ran up there and found her on the floor. It was pretty obviously broken with a little droop in it (pictures below). Adriana was her secret santa that week and did a lot to make her as comfortable as possible by helping get her a stuffed animal to hold, little pillow for her arm, and some other things to help her be happy.

| On our way to the ER |

| She got a new puppy from the hospital |
She broke both bones in her right arm just above the wrist.

| Splint on her right arm, IV in her left and still a smile on her face. |

| Just waking up and seeing her awesome purple cast! |
We were sleeping under the Christmas tree that night so with the craziness there are no cool night pictures of the girls sleeping. Her sisters had a bed all ready for her when we got home from the hospital (about 12:30am). This is a morning after shot.
