First go at crutches...

Poor baby girl...waiting to see doctor
In May, Emily fell off the bars at school and sprained her ankle. Poor baby! She really tried to be a trooper and say that it didn't hurt that bad, but when she tried to walk, she couldn't put any weight on it. So...it was off to urgent care! After x-rays proved it wasn't broken, the doctor sent us home with crutches.

The crutches were difficult for the wee one to maneuver, so we ended up keeping her home for three school days plus the weekend. So after five days at home, she was able to put weight on it and walk with a shoe on.

Thank goodness it was only a sprain. I am not sure how we would've done this whole crutch thing if it was broken! :-)
