Purple Cast

This afternoon the helpful doctors and nurses at Primary Children's Orthopedic center took more x-rays, removed the splint, and put on this lovely cast. Miranda was a very good girl, except for the part where she scream-cried the entire time they were putting on her cast. I think it was because they were holding her down and holding her arm in a way that made it hurt. The technical term for the break is a supracondylar humerus fracture. It's the part of the arm/elbow toward the upper arm. She'll have this cast on for 3 weeks before they x-ray her again. We want everyone to know that she picked purple (probably the least dirt-showing color of all) all on her own (which we are very happy about!). Now she'll just have 3 weeks of sponge baths and staying out of sandboxes. *Note the Dora sticker for good behavior.

REAL Soccer Game

Samuel is the ultimate fan, or Fernando is....or Xiao Yu is. This was Samuel's first soccer game which was excellent except that Beckham did not show. They asked Fernando to play in his place, but he didn't want to make Salt Lake REAL lose. We looked like the United Nations with all the races in our group.
