6 weeks behind us...

... and another "owie" to distract us.



After three long and painful days, we chose to get a second opinion from an Orthopedist at The Children's Hospital only to find out that Eden had in fact broken her leg.



Now is one time that I struggle with sharing all of our "family news" to the blog world because you get to learn about some of my not-so-proud moments. Like how on earth did this child who should be overly protected break her leg?? Well, the truth is... I still don't know. One moment she was lying on the couch and the next on the floor. In my defence, we have learned that this is a somewhat common occurrence with toddlers. She actually has something called a "toddler fracture"


Thankfully, the cast doesn't seem to be slowing her down too much. I am just going to put a helmet on this kid. Watch out world... Eden Raine has a new heart and renewed energy!

Toddler's fractures are very common, and she'll heal up just fine. I've seen tons of these kinds of injuries, and there are no ways to prevent freak accidents. It's normal to feel guilty and wonder if you're really a good parent, but the fact that you even ask the question shows you are. These things happen, often, and to no fault of the parents. She looks great in purple, by the way.
