Today I was out shopping with both kids (school holidays) and was browsing the baby toy section when Anna (who had repeatedly asked to sit down) lay down in the middle of the shops.
I asked her to get up, and Seth went over to give her a hand. Unfortunately with Anna, helping her up by the hand is a 'no no' because she has weak wrists.
So Seth pulled, and Anna started screaming. Myer supplied first aid including a cardboard splint, bandaging and a sling.
Next we went to the doctors (instead of to do the groceries that we needed for dinner) and waited a very long time (around 1.5hrs) to see a doctor.
The doctor sent us to the radiologist for an x-ray to check for a fracture and we waited there some more.
The entire event started at 1pm and we got home at 4.45pm. It was long, boring and very distressing for me, especially as the doctor just about made her scream with pain and I couldn't be the one to hold her for the x-ray (because of the pregnancy).
So now I have nothing to cook for dinner, my groceries aren't done and we are going to have to buy something like chips (from the fish and chip shop) and some fresh bread as we have eaten out a little bit too much lately (nausea discourages me from being in the kitchen) and can't afford much else.
On the bright side, I picked up some really cute baby toys cheaply today! :)
Atlantisea's baby!
