New Pictures of Aiden

So Aiden has been healing quite well and looking pretty good! He took a bath in the sink last night and I think that it really helped him feel better. He is finally up and moving too!

Trauma Drama Part Dos

Yesterday while at the ER Aiden has said that his hand was cold. We didn't think anything about it so we didn't say anything to the doctors. Fast forward 4 hours and Aiden is saying that his wrist really hurts and it is a little swollen. By the morning, he wasn't using it. It was a little swollen and a little hot, and slightly bruised. We debated taking him in to the doctor again but decided it wouldn't hurt. Lo and behold, hairline fracture of the right wrist. poor guy. Luckily it is a small fracture and he should only have to have the cast on for 2 weeks, maybe a bit longer.

We love Aiden! Thank you for all your prayers and loves!

Our first trip to the ER

Aiden had a quite exciting day today. When he got home from school Christopher was out riding one of the horse. Aiden decided that he wanted to ride and so Christopher got off the horse and put Aiden on it. Christopher then dropped the reins and went to grab something. The horse started walking, Christopher lunged at it and the lunge spoked the horse. She took off at a run wad promptly deposited Aiden on the ground. Unfortunately, He hit face first on the ground and then slid about 4 feet. He was bleeding pretty bad when Christopher brought him in the house. We quickly rushed him to the doctors. On the way he became really sleepy and a little lethargic. At the doctors they decided to send him to the ER. At the ER they did a head CT and a couple of x-rays on his ribs. they were worried that they would miss a skull fracture or brain bled because of the force of the trauma. When all was said and done he was fine. He needed a couple of stitches in his forehead and was sent home with a prescription of Tylenol with codine. We think he will be sore for a couple of days! We are really grateful that he didn't get stepped on or break any bones!


The top cut required two stitches and the bottom three. The bruise is even darker!

The doctors were really worried that there was some broken ribs under this scrape. it is actually bigger in real life!

Happy Halloween!

This year followed the tradition of superheroes! One true superhero and one princess superhero! We went to Boise for Halloween because Aiden has been dying to visit Landon so we finally went!

These are all four of the cousins together...Landon and Aiden both wanted to be Wolverine, and Cole just wanted to be a monster so they made him Frankenstein. It looked really cool until it started to rub of on EVERYTHING.

Aiden and Landon meet two Supermans that were brothers. They we like "We are Supermans" and Aiden and Landon were like "We are Wolverines." Then they started playing together.

The post candy let down after the trick or treating

The stash!
