Friday the 13th started out like most Fridays. Woke up made breakfast, cleaned the house, showered while the boys wrestled on my bed. Started getting ready, boys still wrestling and then screaming! "G, sorry G, sorry !!! Mom it was an accident!"
When I saw gray's arm I immediately knew he broke it. Plus the fact that he cried longer than a couple of minutes made me think it was broken too. So we hurried and got everyone ready, dropped Mac and Annie off at a friend's house and headed to the pediatrician where the doctor took one look at his arm and called an orthopedic doctor. To make a long story short, the x-rays showed that in fact his arm was broken.

While the nurse was looking at Gray's x-ray I overheard her say "wow, and he didn't even make a sound!" Gray really was amazing. Cried while we were home but the minute we left the house, no tears, no complaining. Even when I had to adjust his arm for the x-ray he didn't wince or say a thing. |

In this picture you can tell the difference between the good arm and the broken arm. |

"Mom I look like superman!"
G is loving his cast and is still being a champ. I was
worried about his pain and being able to sleep with his cast on but
everything went great. He slept great and acts like nothing has changed.
In Gray's short life he has been through a lot; multiple ER visits, stitches/glue, eye surgery, front teeth getting knocked out, and now a broken arm. But out of all my kids Gray can handle pain and crazy situations the best. He's always calm and never complains which makes everything easier on me and I love him for that. | |

He is so brave! Such a good-looking cast too, let's see more pictures when he's had it a couple of weeks...
So sorry, G and my Ben have a lot in common!
Oh, no, poor G! Love the cast though and glad it wasn't worse. He's such a trooper.
I think he takes after his dad!
Hugs and kisses to all,
Poor Gray!!! Broken arms are rough- but he is one tough kid!!
So sorry Gray!!
Josh has a cast on his left foot/leg as of Thursday. I HATE broken bones. Our THIRD this YEAR. We have totally bad luck with breaks. Treys starts football next week. Might have two in casts in a few weeks. (Josh went to Seven Peaks on Monday. Some idiot woman with a child on her lap stops in the middle of the slide and Josh crashes straight into her while lying on his back. Ligament tears the bone off. No Regional Baseball Tournament in So Cal for him next week. :( Life is hard) Oh, and I was at girls camp Tuesday- Friday. Love our lifesaver moms!!
MISS YOU!!!
Little casts are so stinkin' cute though!! Tough guy!
