No pictures today just a note. Emily is doing a little better each day. The rest of us are exhausted. She had lots of nice visitors on Thursday and a good check up at the doctors. The cast doesn't seem to cause her discomfort it just won't let her sit up at all. We have to prop her on pillows or hold her in our lap. I held her for most of the day yesterday as she was just so tired of being in bed. My arms are really sore today. She was able to go in the potty tonight, I know that sounds silly but we were all potty trained before this and now we have to have a diaper on. So we all clapped and said hooray! Looking forward to the weekend visitors and having Grandma come to help. Hope everyone out there is doing well.

Little Miss Emily has a Broken Leg

Emily was such a brave girl at the hospital today. We were there for about 10 hours. They diagnosed her with a femur hairline fracture. She gets to wear this beautiful contraption for 4-6 weeks. How did we manage to get through 10 years with boys and Emily is the one that ends up with a broken leg. Keep her in your prayers... she is going to be going crazy not being able to move around.

Time for Soccer Finals
Davin gets to hang out with his buddies. There are four kids his age that are younger siblings of Carter's team mates. It has been fun for them to have the time during practices and games to hang out and play.
Emily gets to Monkey around.

Carter has really improved his skills this year. His coach was so great. He taught the boys so much with quiet patience. He never yelled and was very positive in his instructions. They boys won a lot during the season, they haven't had quite the same luck during the finals but we are all crossing our fingers for the last game.

Emily and Tanner have discovered the fun of dress up. What a pair!
We had a nice visit with Grandma and Grandpa shortly after Christmas. We had our favorite dinner of tri tip steak. The boys can't get enough of it. We love seeing Grandma and Grandpa and getting in our hugs and kisses.
Emily looks so cute in a new outfit and purse from Grandma and Grandpa. It is so fun how girly she is.
