We learned our lesson

Never go down the giant spiral tube slide with a two year old on your lap.

Cause that's what Ron did with Samantha on Monday.

And that's how Samantha fractured her leg.

We didn't know it was fractured until today.

Poor baby.

We decided against taking her to the ER on Monday night because she didn't seem to be in much pain, except when she tried to walk.

On Tuesday, we called the doctor and they said to monitor it until Wednesday and treat any pain with ibuprofen. Again, not much pain unless she tried to walk. She got two doses of ibuprofen.

On Wednesday, we went to the doctor and she ordered an x-ray.

We left the doctor's office and headed to Children's Hospital.

Got an x-ray.

Got a call from the doctor.

"It's fractured. Head over to the Orthopedic Department. They're expecting you."

Got to Orthopedics.

"We need to get authorization from your insurance in 15 minutes or we can't see you today."

What?! Call the insurance company.

Got the authorization.

Samantha chose purple for her full-leg cast.

She will be in it for 4 weeks.

No gymnastics. And i just signed her up for dance class. Ooops.

Like I said, lesson learned.
