Been a crazy month!

wow... it's been a little nuts over here, hence the lack of blog posts! On top of our normal, toddler + baby madness a week after we got back from our trip to NY Megan fell off a swing and ended up with a broken leg :( It's a buckle fracture on her lower tibia and she was so brave at the ER and the Pediatric Orthopedic. She's started to walk on a it a little bit too.


The day she got her cast, enjoying her new bean bag chair and extra tv time!

The following week was Easter and it was a rough day...


Megan was just getting frustrated about her cast and not being able to walk, Mommy and Daddy we're exhausted and Ryan cut his first tooth (although he looks so happy in the pic below doesn't he???)


But that afternoon we went to Gramby and Granddaddy's and the change of venue, an inside egg hunt and some chocolate pie saved the day :-)


On Monday my Mom came in to help out with the kids and I went back to work. It was GREAT having her here and we had a wonderful week!

Towards the end of the week we noticed that Megan wasn't as active or trying to walk as much and then Friday night she was running a fever at 101, so I gave her some motrin before bed. She woke up Saturday with still a low grade fever and still not that active. After her nap she was burning up, I took her temp and it was 104.8! Yikes! I gave her some more motrin before heading over to the Urgent Care place but minutes later she threw up all over me! Russ took her to Urgent care and Ryan and I followed a bit later. Long story short, they think it's a bacterial infection so Megan's on an antibiotic. She's a TON better, her fever broke Sat night / early Sunday morning, although it got back up to 100.8 late yesterday. No fever so far today, but she still doesn't have any appetite. We have a follow-up with the pedi tomorrow morning.

Oh and Ryan cut his second tooth, and he's scooting all over the place! He can get to anything within a couple feet of him on the floor and all he wants are Megan's toys! (or whatever anyone is eating!).

So hopefully things will start to calm down here! And I'll get some back-logged blog posts out (like the one about our trip to NY that I was working on when Russ called and said Megan had fallen off the swings at the park...).

But in spite of everything Ryan still able to relax :-)
