Brace Yourself...

Well, we had a little scare Wednesday night, right after Danny got home. Macie was playing with her friend Stormie, and tried to jump on her back while they were roughhousing on the couch in the living room. She accidently slipped off and fell 1 1/2 feet to the ground. Not a big deal, right? Wrong. She started screaming (which isn't totally unusual for Macie), so Danny went to pick her up and give her a hug. While he was holding her she stopped breathing and passed out -- so I knew something was wrong. It was pretty scary, actually. Danny and I both wanted to be the one to hold her and make things right. Well...we took off her sleeping beauty dress (we always have some sort of costume on), and sure enough, her left collarbone was broken. So we headed to the ER and spent many hours getting triaged, having X-rays, and getting this nifty sling and wrap. Fun times for all (not quite.). At least Macie slept well last night and is dealing with it pretty well. She hates the sling (the novelty wore off about 3 minutes after this picture was taken), but it looks like she'll have to deal with it until our doctor says no more. Who would've thought that a slip off the couch could end in a broken bone?

Thanks to Brad and Cass for watching Reid and Davis in a pinch, and to Katie and Tyler for the brownies and movies while we were at the hospital. You guys rock!
