So, there isn't even a very exciting story to tell, but this is how it happened. We were walking in to church, early since James had an appointment to get a new calling. Ellie was holding my hand and walking when she tripped and fell down on the carpet. No big deal, because since she is still mastering the walking thing she trips a lot. Except this time it was a big deal because she starting crying hard, like she was hurt.
All day Sunday she wasn't using her right leg. She was acting a bit better Monday, but I called the doctor just to check things out. After the doctor check up (which Brielle hated) we were sent to get xrays (which she also screamed through) and discovered that Ellie had a buckle fracture. We went to get the cast put on, they didn't have any exciting colors small enough for her leg, so she just got plain old white. And that, is the story of Brielle's first sports injury.
I told Ellie she was getting a sock put on. She loves socks, so she was okay with that. So far it hasn't bothered her much yet. We go get it checked again in 2 weeks, and she should get it off in 4-6 weeks.
