Mollie breaks her arm!

Mollie was playing at the CDS school and fell off a different type of slide. It does not have sides and meant for older children. She broke her arm and was very brave. She went to Children's hospital. It is a wonderful place. They had stickers and all types of child related things to make a bad situation fun. Mollie is holding a blue Swiss cheese to put over the cast.
















We went to visit Eve and family in NJ. Adley is doing so good. She is getting stronger. She now rolls from both sides with no problems. She can sleep on the stomach. She is a wiggle worm and loves to stand. Jack and I feel that she remembered us. She came to us right away. Eve says that she is starting to have a fear of strangers. She knows her family and is bonded. She has gained weight and has FAT thighs. It is nice to see Maya and Holden being helpful siblings. Maya got her up in the morning and changed her diaper. Then the two siblings fought over what outfit she should wear for the day. Who would have ever thought that Holden would care if Adley wore a skirt or blue jean shorts!






















Abe ( 4th grade) and Nathan (1st grade) started school this week. Nathan had homework the first day and was not happy. I remember when he was younger and pretended to have homework while Abe did his.






We went to NJ on and then planned to go to Lauren Beitman's wedding on Saturday. There is a hurricane coming and Jack and I decided to not go into the storm and drove home to Pittsburgh. All of the east coast is bracing for the storm. Eve is sleeping with her in laws and dave is staying at the house to watch the basement for flooding. They are living in a basement apartment now, as their house is being rebuild with a great addition. Ellen in MD is also getting ready for the storm. HHI just had heavy rains and no damage. A lot of driving in 36 hours. On Monday we will know if we made the correct decision to miss the wedding or not.
