O No-la!

Nola fell yesterday in her new shoes while playing with her cousins and actually ended up breaking her leg! We think she twisted her ankle and fell off her shoe. I know I can't believe it either. She fractured her tibia and bent her fibula. She is such an angel and handled the whole thing beautifully.

At home with the temporary soft cast.

I'm glad she thinks raisins are candy, because when she actually got a real candy sucker, she forgot all about the cast.

Hippo gets a cast too!

Little bro looks on.

Ever since the tube surgery in her ears earlier this month, Nola has been the biggest blessing to my days and quite the riot, I might add. She counts to 10! She talks non stop and speaks in 5 word sentences like "daddy, where did Lula go?" A new game she likes to play sounds a bit like marco polo with my name. She will yell "Mommma" until I answer "Noooolllaaa" even if I am right in front of her.


After she got the hard cast on today, we took her to the concert in the park. She was high on children's motrin, so a bit out of it. She will have the cast on for 4 weeks and not be able to walk. She really did well at a park even though she could not get up and run around! Say a prayer for us during the days with this new challenge.

Rockwell loves sleeping in the sling.

Nola loves to dance, but since she can't stand up, she decided to hand dance. video
Gus and Lula get crazy with us!
