Red Cast

Here she is everyone, poor little Ella...NOT!! she is doing just as good as she was before the broken foot. It took her all of 1/2 hour to figure out that she can walk on the cast and now there is no stopping her. The really bad thing is that I know that she will not learn from this. she will be jumping off the bunk bed again and I would not be surprised if she has many broken bones in her life. Put it this way, she was climbing over the couch yesterday, dancing and spinning on the casted leg, and I stopped her many times from going up the stairs. Nothing stops her. Anyways... we go back to the dr in 2 weeks and she will probably be out of the cast by then. The good Lord must be looking out for us because I was dreading 4-6 weeks in it which was the original outcome. Hope all is doing well.

broken foot

Well, it's been 5 years and 6 days of no major injuries, but that was broken yesterday morning when Ella jumped off of the ladder to the bunk beds, which thankfully was only about 3 feet off the ground.

Yesterday morning started off as a great day, both girls slept completely through the night, Ella for Once did not come out of her room when we put her to bed, she just stuck her arm under the door a little, but went to sleep great, and no one woke up to go to the bathroom. For once Ella woke up before Kylie and came down to our room in a fabulous mood, no tired wining or anything. Then the 8 o'clock hour came around....

the good moods were over, and kylie started to get a nasty attitude. she was sent to her room for a time out and I was in the kitchen doing the whole breakfast thing. Ella followed kYlie into the room and went to the top bunk. Usually there is a board in front of the ladder, but I forgot to put it up. Next thing Ella says "Help me mama" which she always says. I say hold on I am coming, and then she jumps. Those of you who know Ella well, know she jumps off and on everything. she cried a little, but no big deal until it was time to take Kylie to school and she stepped on it and screamed.

Well after a 4 hour stay in the emergency room and a tramatic xray session, we found out that she broke the bone on the top of her foot right above her big toe. Right now she is in a temperary cast, and I have to make an appointment with an orthapedic dr. to get a permenant cast put on tomorrow or friday.

Ella is not in pain until she forgets about it and gets off the couch and bumps the top of her foot, then she becomes very frustrated and crabby. I actually can't wait until they put on a full cast because at least then the top of her foot will be protected. It is going to be a long 4-6 weeks for everyone int he frixen household.

Hope all is well with everyone else, I will update you all soon.

She is singing, not eating the microphone although I think she thinks it tastes good since
she keeps licking it, how gross!!!!

Here is the wardrobe change!!

Today we made some microphones for the girls to sing into. They love to sing to High School Musical and Hannah Montana the most, but they usually use the tv switchers as mics so I decided it was time to make them. Well they were a hit. It is hours of fun for free.

Nana also bought them some new capri sets and dresses so you will notice the wardrobe change halfway through the pictures. The last picture is very funny, Kylie loves when anyone will scratch or rub her. She always suckers my mom into doing it. Well obviously our dogs love it to because if you look closely mom is rubbing Duke and Kylie while Kylie is rubbing Maize and moms back, it was very funny to watch

Well, Kylie is 5 can you believe it??? I sure can't. we had a little celebration for her birthday on Wed. she only got to open 1 present because she has gotten all the others before. Mom got her an American Girl Doll, we took her to build a bear and she got to pick whatever she wanted, My sister is taking her to High School Musical on Ice this Saturday. SHe also got a HSM purse and some gift cards from Aunt Tina and Gma Gpa and Uncle Jake. Oh, she got a cup with her name on it with some Kylie stickers from Aunt Jill. On her actual bday day she got a ceramic tea set which she loves, and so does Ella. they have tea and cookies on a daily basis. I am actually very impressed with the strength of the set, it has been banged around ALOT and nothing has gotten broken yet.

Well, the bitter cold is gone, now we have about a foot of snow. I don't mind that, except when I have to push the stroller through it. We had fun playing in the snow, Kylie, Maize, Duke, and myself. I would take noah out, but the boy HATES to get winter clothes on. I told Erin her best bet is to move to florida so the poor boy isn't tortured every year! Ha Ha. Anyways, hope everyone is doing well and will talk to you soon. Enjoy the pics.

Sorry there are no new pictures, I just thought I would write a little update on how we have been. Well since it has been so cold, it started off in negative degrees today, we have been inside a lot besides walking Kylie to and from school. We have been doing a lot of puzzles artwork, and just plain running throug the house.

Nothing is really new with us, Ella is doing great being potty trained, hasn't had an accident in like 3 weeks, not even at night. She is now in a big girl bed, the bottom bunk, which is a challenge. once she is asleep she is fine for the night, but it is getting to sleep that she has a problem with so if anyone has any suggestions we are open for them. We are trying what the supper nanny recommends, but it is not working too well. Lets see....Karl's basketball team is doing pretty good, 7 and 3 in the conference they have won a couple of big games as of late we will see what happens with that. I am HUGE and counting down the days until this baby comes, still have 3 months. we are trying to get the baby room ready, it is a slow and steady process. Oh and Kylie has now lost 2 teeth and is already getting her big teeth in, it is crazy because she is not even 5 yet.

Other then that all is pretty quiet here. hope everyone is doing well. I hope to get the camera out soon to post some more.
Love to all
Renee
