This Little Piggy!!!

***WARNING GRAPHIC PICTURE**** We spent the night in the ER with our daughter Hadley, she was playing outside with her brothers and while Logan was hammering a tree she started to climb the tree and he got her middle toe on the left foot. She came in and was crying but when I washed it off I could tell she need to go the hospital. Her little piggy was split and hanging there. After 6 hours and a visit with the plastic surgeon her little piggy is back on. It has a 50/50 chance of surviving. If the blood vessels reattach it may survive if not the will have to shave down the bone and then she will have a short toe. They put her in a boot and told me to try and keep her off of it and keep it elevated. Good Luck to us!!!

Out of the Cast and Into Ponseti!!!!

Emmett has graduated from the cast to the shoes. He is on his first day of the special shoes that he will wear all the time for 3 months and then wear at night until he is 3 years old. I was not real good at making Logan wear the shoes but Emmett's shoes are a little different and seem to be better shoes. I will be stronger and make sure that he wears them he has done so well through his treatment, he is a great baby and really snuggly, I know he will do good with the new shoes too!! The shoes are called Ponseti's and are kinda cute.
