Cheerleading camp

Abigail's dance teacher did a week-long cheerleading camp this week and these are some pictures from the show they had at the end of it. They all did pretty well considering they had only met four times before this show.

Today Abigail had a more permanent cast put on her arm. The doctor let us take pictures of the x-rays. The top image was taken at the ER right after she broke it. The round thing off to the right is the condyle that should be attached to the humerus bone above it. The lower two images are the pins that are in her bone the shorter part of the "V" is outside the skin. She should be having those removed in two weeks.

The biggest get well basket ever!

The team at WestPark Dental got together and filled two boxes full of all kinds of toys and activities a five year-old girl loves. Abigail was beside herself and I'm worried she might start finding ways to break other bones after getting this kind of treatment.

The broken arm

Abigail had a good friend from school come over to cheer her up. They played dress-up and it was nice to see a smile on Abigail's face again. Thank you Julissa! Of course, Logan had to get in on the act.

This photo was taken right before Jeffrey and I headed back home after our very relaxing weekend in Potsdam. I think I gained about five pounds that weekend from all of Alice's wonderful meals.

More snow pictures

Snow Day!

We actually got some real snow in Dallas. The kids got the day off from school, so Abigail and her buddy got busy with the snowman building. I'll get a picture of that when it's finished. At last check the mean boys had knocked the original snowman down :(

This was taken last summer at a friend's wedding reception.

Abigail's preschool dance show

Nanna brought it to my attention that I only had a picture of Logan at Abigail's dance recital so here are the important pictures from that. Oops!

He was trying to call Child Protective Services to complain that he was being photographed in antler's with a giant bow against his will.

Logan, why are you so happy when your hair is so nappy?

I just came across this picture of Logan (taken July 2008) eating corn at Cappy's house. He must have run it through his hair a few times before he started eating it.

Snow in Texas!

We actually got some snow on Christmas Eve which is almost unheard of. Some of it even stuck so the kids got to play in the snow on Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas, Aaargh!

Caroling at NorthPark Mall

Abigail and her preschool classmates sang Christmas Carols for the shoppers at the Mall. It was an adventure jsut to find a parking spot at the mall on a Saturday two weeks before Christmas.

Logan's 2nd birthday

We finally had a celebration in honor of Logan turning two. The kids painted some crocodiles which was messy but fun and then we had burgers and cupcakes. (Also messy, but fun)
