ER visit tonight

We were just getting supper ready when Lana started screaming. Turns out Kaya decided to drag her along the floor and popped Lana's elbow out of place. Nursemaid's elbow. She's had it happen once before.

After receiving instructions over the phont I attempted to pop it in place myself, but she was in so much pain, I couldn't stand it, and I was scared I was going to do more damage.

So we made a make-shift sling out of tights and put her arm up and took her to ER.

Once the Dr came through he only took a minute or so to pop it back and she seems much better now. Now we just need to pay for it. Ugh. We'll finally have our deductable paid off in time for the new policy to kick in. Annoying. I'm glad she feels better though.

Kaya feels very guilty. She's pampering Lana to try to make up for it.

Oops, Christmas

'Cause we've been ill, I forgot to post anything about Christmas.


We had a great day. Thanks to the friends and Grandparents who sent presents! All very nice. The kids were spoiled as usual.




Uncle Doug spent the night here Christmas Eve, which was fun. He stayed for the meal and our friends Eric and Stacy came too, with their kiddos. And they brought yummy food including the turkey, which was great to n ot have to make! I made a bunch of stuff too, much of which is still in containers in the fridge.

Then Doug stayed later too and we played a buffy board game together. Loads of fun.



Happy New Ears!


Kaya came to me this morning throwing her arms around my neck and exclaiming "Happy New Ears!!" I couldn't help but laugh.

We unfortunately had to cancel our New Year's Eve plans and stay home puking and running to the bathroom instead. We unfortunately have this bad tummy bug, which is just never going away. So we're spending today changing spewed on bed sheets and cleaning up messes. Not much fun. I just hope this gets out of our systems soon. It's never ending.
