Poor baby





So far this year has not been a great one for our family. I am not one to put all of our personal problems/situations out there for people to see or read but I felt I must post about this one. Yesterday poor little Dawson fell and broke his wrist. He cried a lot longer than a normal fall but I never thought it would be broken. It wasn't until three hours later when he woke up form his nap screaming and still saying it hurt that I thought hmmm..... what if. I felt like such a horrible mom because I waited so long to take him but honestly had no idea it was broken. We went to the Dr. and then to the hospital to get an x-ray. After that he was feeling much better because the Motrin kicked in. We headed back to the Doctors office to give them the x-ray copy. He got a sucker and a sticker and they put the wrapped arm in a sling until Wednesday when I can get the cast put on. His arm was quite swollen so they want it to rest a few days until the permanent one goes on. The total Dr time was 2 ling hours and little Dawson was so good and brave. I am so grateful that it is not worse and we are lucky that he is the first kid to have to get a cast.

Easter cookies









I made some yummy Easter egg cookies and then made three different colors to glaze them. Abigale always wants to help me so I decided to teach her to pipe the icing on the cookies. She did very well and had so much fun creating her own little cookies. She did three. She made one with a smiley face, one with an A and one that is all purple. She can't wait to be able to do this with her kids!
