You have to love the ER

Last night was an exciting evening for us. It started about 8:00, Rylie and Raegan were playing after bath time and Rylie ended up either twisting her ankle and then hitting it on the floor somehow. Anyway, she started limping after it happened and told us that it hurt and she couldn't walk on it. Kevin and I watch her for about an hour and decided to go ahead and take her to the ER. We arrived there at 9:30, at 12:30 Kevin came home to try to get some sleep so he could go to work today. Finally, at 1:45 they took X-rays and we finally go put in a room about 2:45. The doctor came in and gave me the good news that nothing was broken but she had bruised/sprained it pretty bad. So, we got home about 4:30 this morning. She can't even walk on it today so I have made her a very comfy place on the couch and we are going to just rest and watch movies today. Hopefully she will be feeling better soon! It is hard to keep a 3 yr old down.

Update

Well, we were right. Raegan has an ear infection in her right ear. Dr put her on antibotics so hopefully she should start feeling better in a few days. She is such a trooper when she is sick so unlike her sister! As many of you know we have struggled with Raegans weight and always kind of worried about how small she is. Well, today I had the doctor put her weight into the growth chart and while she is still only in the 10-20% on her weight for her age he said she is growing so that relieved us alot. He said she is just going to be a little petite thing and that is fine I am just use to Rylie who was always in the 80-90% on her growth chart. But, she weighed in at 20lbs 4 oz. (My newphew who turned 1 on 2/5/09 weighs 20lbs 5oz) . He is just a big boy!!! Okay, I know that I am new at this blogging stuff but do you get an award for 2 posts in one day! Just checking.haha

Winter weather and Illness

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing good after the Ice Storm. We were very excited to get our electricity back after 5 days. After the power came back on Kevin took Rylie out to tell the workers how much we appreciated them. She told them "thank you for the power, daddy, can we turn off the refrigerator now(aka generator)?" So, I guess we were all ready she thought the generator was loud! haha
Well, Raegan is now sick. I think it is a sinus infection but I believe she might have an ear infection now. So, we are headed to the doctor this afternoon. I will try to blog more regularly I know I am not doing very good!
Have a great week

Christmas

I hope everyone had a great Christmas. We had a wonderful time with family and friends. We spent Christmas Eve with Kevin's grandma and uncle and than took the girls to look at Christmas lights. They really enjoyed that! Then after opening gifts on Christmas morning we headed to Kansas to spend the day with my family. Rylie really enjoyed the whole SANTA thing this year and Raegan just enjoyed all the boxes!!! Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
