3 of the 4

You all know that I have 4 boys. Boys are crazy. The 4th boy in a row is even crazier. Dallin is my daredevil. He thinks he can do EVERYTHING that his brothers do. He started climbing BEFORE he could walk. He would crawl over to the table and climb up the chair onto the table top. He is just one HUGH ball of energy.

Today it all caught up with him. We were at the store and Rowyn was in the seat of the cart strapped in. Dallin usually walks with me, but he is constantly climbing in and out of the cart. He does it ALL of the time. I have not been able to stop it and he is really quick. He can be out of the cart, I will turn my back for just a few seconds and he will be in the cart by the time I turn around. Today he was sitting in the cart eating fruit snacks. He wanted to share with his friend that was with us. Of course, my back was turned and the next thing I know he is crying on the ground. I think he got his foot caught on the way out and basically tripped himself while climbing out. I just knew when I saw him on the ground that he had broken it. In fact, I thought about staying home today because I just knew something was going to go wrong. Luckily it is not a bad break. Just a little buckle fracture.
Waiting for the x-ray. Once he had gotten some Ibuprofen and some ice, he was feeling better and ready to go home. So was Rowyn.

They didn't really cast it. They put it in a splint and wrapped it so it can still swell a little. We have to go and see our doctor next week. He is out of town.

It is one big a## cast. It goes from his elbow past his fingers. He is my 3rd boy to break his arm. Now I am just waiting for Lincoln to do it. He is pretty timid so I think it might be awhile. I am surprised it took Dallin this long. I don't know what to do with the boy. He was out climbing the tree and fence this evening. He can't play with WII or the computer. I am glad that it is getting warm so we can be outside but how do you stop a boy from being a boy?
