A Bad Week

My week started Sunday with a dislocated kneecap (very painful) and ambulance ride for me (a first for our family), continued on Tuesday evening with a broken forearm for Elle, followed by surgery today for Elle to actually fully break her forearm (it only cracked and bent on Tuesday and, left to heal with the bend would have resulted in a forever crooked arm). Not a good week. Elle and I have gotten some good couch time together which has been nice though we are both pretty bored! I am feeling better and got out and about today which was very nice but it'll be a 6-12 week recovery for both of us! Oh, and, yes, both injuries were incurred playing indoor soccer :(

But she was actually pretty nervous and scared

Ready for surgery

We really hope Elle recovers quickly as she was so excited for the spring soccer season which started this past weekend and goes until early May. We really hope she gets a chance to play in some mid-April games. Fingers-crossed!
