florida~post #2

Well, we all arrived to florida with dreams of this vacation to be as wonderful as ever. And it actually was....for most of us. This picture will give you a hint of what went on the very first night we were there.




yes, this is an x-ray of dylan's cute little body...and his broken collarbone. He fell off the bed in the middle of the night and started screaming! Mark tried to calm him down but every 10 minutes or so he would start crying. So I went in there and slept right next to him and would love on him and play with his hair until he calmed down. This lasted ALL night LONG! He would fall asleep off and on and I was just laying there wishing and hoping there was some way I could get some sleep! Dylan would throw his legs up on my stomach and would twitch throughout the night. I maybe got an hour of sleep. Poor thing...he was miserable the next day. We had no idea what was hurting him until we kept asking a million times, "where's your owie?" and he then consistantly would point to his shoulder. We then noticed that he wouldn't use his left arm at all. and every time he would fall or you would pick him up he would cry. throughout the week he adapted to just using his right arm...what a trooper! So, that concluded our first day in florida! Now for some of my favorites of all the kids!!!
