Our sweet Reilly has been a busy boy lately!
At the end of the first nine weeks he said goodbye to Mrs. Zehr's Kindergarten Class...
...and hello to Mrs. Baner's First Grade Class. The transition is going very well and he has made lots of new friends.
Every day he still comes home and says Math is his favorite subject!
Keep up the good work Reilly!
And now for the not so happy recent event...a broken arm.
Friday, November 14th at 10:45pm he fell down the basement stairs. He was in a lot of pain and we were pretty sure his arm had to be broken. Kent was going to take him to the ER while I stayed home with Sarina...but I didn't want my little boy going to the Hospital with out me...(a Mom thing). So I called my Wonderful Parents (waking them up) and asked if we could drop Sarina off. They were glad to help us out and let her spend the night...by the time we got there to drop her off Reilly had gotten comfortable and fell asleep. It was a long quiet ride to the hospital...a lot different than the first time we took our sweet boy the ER. Lights were flashing (don't think the sirens were going) but we were cruising there in the ambulance! A few weeks after his first birthday he had a febrile seizure! A very scary experience for all of us!
This picture was taken at 3:00am in the Emergency Room. If he kept his arm still enough he would doze off to sleep.
The Doctor said that he had a buckle fracture and the nurse would put it in a splint for the night....we were to be out of the ER in 10-15 minutes!
An hour and a half later...the nurse finally took care of us!!!! Right before we went home he began to cry again because he had just realized he had broken his left arm (he's left handed). He was very sad that he wouldn't be able to write. To cheer him up we taught him the meaning of the word ambidextrous. He has not only mastered pronouncing and spelling the word but also can perform it! So talented!!!
This is Monday morning. He wasn't too happy about hauling this huge splint and sling to school.
Thankfully we were able to get an appointment early Tuesday morning to get the cast on.
He picked dark blue! I dropped him off at school after his Dr. appointment and by the time school was over all of his friends
had signed his cast. That definitely cheered him up!
Tuesday was his 1st Grade Thanksgiving Program. He did an awesome job singing and reciting poems.
Here he is with his friend Albuquerque the Turkey.
So now we close with Reilly's current events! He keeps us on our toes...spelling words instead of just saying them
...asking us hard math problems...and singing everywhere he goes!
Love you tons my Boy!
