Round two

Keyton had his apt. with the orthopedic surgyon today and they put him in a full hard cast for 3 weeks. Yes he had a fat pad on the elbow in the x-rays which is a sign of a fracture. So yes he fractured yet another bone in his little body! I was suprised but happy we are fixing the problem and that we are on the road to recovery. He will have more x-rays done on the 28th to see if he needs another cast or if he will be fine with out it. Hoping for the best... And yes that means that he will have it on for Easter and Easter pics....LOL !! The memories that will make. He picked light blue to match the shirt he was wearing at the doc. and wants me to draw a snake around his wrist! He can wait for people to sign it and to show it off. Now bath time will be hard and he will be mad about not getting to play in the bath for the next few weeks. All in all he is ok just still hurting and now not able to do much at all. They said the pain will get better now that he is in the hard cast and that will be so nice maybe he will sleep better now. The nurse was so impressed at how good he was getting it put on and how intently he was watching the proses was really cute. I have one tough little guy!

Here We go again....

Well this year has not been our year with injuries and it is only 4 months into it. At this rate we will not make it to 2012 lol. and we can seem to shake them...here is what the last few months have been like in the Condra house hold....

1. Dec. 22, 2010 was the first major injury. Yes I know last year but this is where it started... Keyton went mouth first into my parents end table which ended with an x-ray to the mouth, two good cuts to the gums and every ligament in the upper teeth shaken and hurt. Took and good 6 weeks to heal up and stop hurting


2. Feb. 14, 2011..again Keyton went face first into the brick of my parents fireplace which ended with an x-ray, fractured cheek bone, dislocated nose, and black swollen eye! Took about 3 weeks for the bruising to heal and another 3 for the bone to stop hurting! That was a hard time with pain and having a happy boy. He did good though despite it all.


3. Feb. 22, 2011...Paisley was at school and fell off the swings face first. Picked her up covered in blood and one scratched up face. She bit the bottom lip almost through it, cut the top gums and had a dislocated nose. Her teacher did call the next am to see how she was doing which I thought was so sweet. She was fine in about 3 weeks from it all


4. March 23, 2011...Daddy was playing soccer and fell beating up his leg pretty good. He was fine just sore for a good 2 weeks or so.


5. March 8, 2011...Brezlyn was not walking right all day so we took off her shoe to see her next to the last toe was standing strait up!! OMG that one looked bad. Took her in thankfully no x-ray needed it was just dislocated and she was fine the next am!


6. March 16, 2011...the kid thought it would be funny to pull Brezlyn around in a laundry basket all was well til Mommy was cooking and they tried to put her in a basket on my bed. She fell off and hit her head on the dresser. She was fine other than a good bump and needed so good TLC


7. March 27, 2011 Yes Keyton's b-day did not end well for him he fell into a nail that was sticking out of a wall and cut his head up pretty good. He was fine made sure he did not need a shot and Nonnie came over to check on him and all was good.


8. March 28, 2011 The big one!!! The kids where playing bored games with Daddy on the floor and Keyton was acting silly rolling around with the dice. Next thing we know he is screaming his head off and holding his arm. Thinking it was his arm out of place yet again I try to pop it back in NO LUCK there. He started Yelling FIX IT MOMMY FIX IT. Well he was not acting the same with it as normal and it was not fixing so off to the ER. 7 x-rays and 3 tries by the doc to pop it back in we were sent home with a sling at 3 am and told if he still could not use it the next day bring him back...Well after waking up ever 30 mins that am and him screaming most the day... we went back and 3 x-rays later they put him in a temp. Cast, Which took two nurses and me holding him down to do. I think this was the worst mommy moment so far as he screams I HATE U MOMMY U ARE MEAN, STOP STOP U ARE HURTING ME !!! Over and over and the whole way home. Was told they could not see anything on the x-rays but think he fractured his cartilage in the elbow and wrist. If not better in 5 days take him to an orthopedic surgeon.

Well we are almost to the 5 day mark and he is not better. He screams when we take the cast off and at the end of the day he is just miserable! Even with Strong pain meds he is still hurting and today we had to take a bath with out the cast because big sis put dirt down the cast. Thanks Paisley! He was not happy and it really hurt him to sit there with out it. At Nonnies tonight he fell on it and was so upset it broke my heart. Praying we find out something soon so that he can sleep better and be back to normal soon. I will calling everyone in Amarillo to see if they will take a 3 yr and see what is going on. He is not happy about this at all and now has a stronger dislike for Doctors. I dont blame him and I am ready to not get the bad ended of his hurt. I want to fix it I just cant and he does not understand that one bit. I will keep everyone updated on this as we find out what comes next or what is going on. Pray for this little arm....Who knew bored games could be dangerous LOL Only my kid could pull that off. Then to ending things up!.....

• Two days ago I fell on my back in the hall and i am bruised up too...anyone who knows my history knows this was not a good thing as in if I fall the wrong way I will never walk again...I am sore but will be fine in a few days or so. Thank God for that one. My sweet 4 yr made me a pallet on the floor, took my shoes off for me, and then layed by me til daddy got home. Melted my heart!


• Not to mention the everyday bumps, scrapes and bruises in there that happen in this house almost every day LOL

Our poor house need some healing and some thing to give! We are now Praying that nothing else like this comes our way so that we can have fun and healthy kids! WoW when it rains it really pours LOL I only laugh because there is nothing else I can do I feel so bad for them and wish so hard that I could take their pain from them! I have never felt so helpless and it is true being a mommy is not for the weak at heart! God give me strength oh and sleep! Since the big arm thing i have not slept the best because he has not. I ask for prayers for him and our family to be safer! Thank u all

Some good things have happened too...Brezlyn started walking a week after her birthday!!! She is so fast and now is into everything. She thinks she is one of the big kids and it is too funny!!! Now she walked to Paisley and Not mommy :( but it was wonderful to see the love in those two girls. She has also learned so much she sings with the kids in the back of the car, does everything they do when they dance. She tries so hard. She is finally into being read to and Loves Brown Bear Brown Bear and From Head to toe! She will sit all the time now for books which I love. She will bring u a book and say "read please" and back up into ur lap! LOVE IT. She is all about Babies and walks around most the day saying Babe Babe. She is sweet and loves to laugh all day long. I thank God for her sweet and ornery nature everyday!

Keyton is really getting so smart everyday and so independent which is a mile stone for him. He is all boy and going 90 to nothing til time for bed. He is really sweet and always telling everyone that he loves them. Just the other day I told Paisley to tell me Thank You she did and then Keyton said..."Now Mommy say your welcome" LOL he is learning fast! He loves to sing and has a really good voice already! I love to hear him. His Birthday was wonderful and full of snakes down to the cake! He had a great time. He has made a few friends here that are boys and around his age and it is wonderful to see. He makes me laugh and I wish I had his energy. He is a little ball of fire and sweetness. I love him so much!

Paisley is learning so much from school and getting to go on really neat field trips like to a new station and to see the helicopter at the hospital! She has a really good friend who she loves so much. She has even done some play dates with her with out mommy. I was scared but she has loved it so much. She is so excited to learn and so good at it to. She is a really good artist and I love to see her art. She could sit all day and color and draw and would be very happy. She is a lot of help around the house and I could not make it with out her some days. She always makes me smile and knows just when I need a laugh. She has really come around to cuddling and we have a date night to watch a show we both enjoy. She is growing up so fast but I am loving watching her grow and can see that she is going to be such a wonderful little lady some day!
