About a month ago we took the kids out to Rita's for some Italian Ice
They loved it. Unfortunately we came home and we were all running around and Bella fell.
The poor thing injured the growth plate in her heel. The good news was that there would be no long term repercussions the bad news was that it is extremely painful. Didn't stop her from being a princess though
She only had to have it on for 10 days. Here she is in the waiting room - she just loved the huge fish tank
She cried when they took the cast off.... not because she was scared but because it was "so pretty". This girl just loves pink.
It took about another week or so for her to be able to put full weight on it and now she is doing really really well.
The weekend after she got it off I had signed up for a 5k that benefited the Special Olympics. I had to carry Bella around the majority of the time she had her cast on and I pinched a nerve in my back. I couldn't run so the family came with me and we did the mile walk. The kids were really excited and wanted to do the kids run
It was awesome. Jason ran with them because we knew Bella would not be able to do the whole thing. She did not get that far into in when she yelled for help. Jack ran back and said, "Come on Bella, we can do this together". He grabbed her hand and tried to help her. My heart about exploded - I was so proud!
Jason ended up carrying her on his shoulders so they could finish
They both got medals when they were done

Jack is so proud that he can both dance and sing with his eyes closed. He was very very proud of his new "trick"
Unfortunately they inherited my dance skills
