Uh Oh...busted leg Meg

The picture says it all. Poor little thing broke her leg while trying to reach the light switch from her crib (she likes to turn it on and off). She usually is quite adept at defying gravity, but not this particular Sunday...almost two weeks until Christmas, great timing!


She broke her leg on the 13th, and earned the honor of having the first broken bone in our family. (I know some will be thinking, "surely Isaac has already broken a bone before". I know it is hard to believe but he hasn't yet. ) I guess it is common procedure to splint the broken bone for awhile before you actually put a cast on. The above picture is her with her temporary splint. on the 18th she got a real cast. Thanks to our wonderful doctor for making her look like our little Christmas Elf!

She has gotten very good at getting around with her cast and just recently started acutally walking with it. Before that crawling was her preferred method of travel and she has a well worn cast to prove it.
