Visit to the Doctors

It looks like Mackenzie is the first of our kids to have to get a cast put on. This last weekend while she was going down the slide with another girl in our park her foot got caught and twisted on her. She started to cry so we took her home and iced it. We kept an eye on her over the weekend but come Monday she still would not walk on it and complained that it hurt. We took her into the Doctors on Monday morning and they took X-rays but couldn't tell. They wanted a specialist to look at them and said they would call us on Wednesday. So on Wednesday we got the call that she had a Toddler Fracture or what's also known as a Spiral Fracture. So this afternoon we took her and she got fitted for her first cast. She did amazing and was really happy to have a new bright pink sock put on her foot. Give it a couple of days and I bet she won't be as happy. She has to have it on for three weeks. On top of this we are potty training her and she is doing really good. We just hope not being able to walk won't hinder her progress with staying dry.

Mackenzie's Birthday

Mackenzie just turned 2 years old and got to celebrate it for two days. We had a little princess party on Saturday for all of her little girlfriends in the neighborhood. They all had so much fun. Nicole had little necklaces and rings and other jewelry for them to wear. On Sunday we had more of a laid back birthday party for her with the family. Grandma and Grandpa Roberts got to see her open her present from them on the webcam and she opened her presents from us too. She had so much fun being a little princess and of course daddy loves his little princess and calls her that all the time. I doubt she will have much of a complex.

Make-Up

So Mackenzie had her first experience with make-up. When mom had her back turned she went into our bathroom and found moms large selection of beauty tools. The next thing we know Mackenzie is sitting on the floor with mascara all over her face. At least she got most of it near her eye. She has a good idea of where it is suppose to go. Hopefully we can keep her from actually wanting to wear makeup for awhile.
