Nose

Aleksandra was at the JCC climbing the steps and slipped perfectly and hit the bridge of her nose. She held her breathe for so long after hitting her nose I knew it was bad. Then came a ton of blood and then her nose started swelling like crazy! I called Mike and then we decided to rush her to the ER. I didn't want to take any chances especially with it being so close to her brain. The doctors didn't want to giver her a xray because they said the radiation levels are too high for a kid this little. So they just looked in her nose. Checked her ears, eyes, and balance. They said no concussion, but her nose is broken and only time will tell how it will heal and what it will look like down the road. So now we play the waiting game. 

Thanks to everyone who called with concerns we love you guys so much!  
Our first time to the hospital for Aleksandra since giving birth to her.
Daddy felt bad, and took her to go get ice cream the moment she got home. She has him wrapped around her finger! She is always so happy in dads arms.
You can see how swollen her nose is. Man my heart hurts when I look at her! I hate when kids get hurt.
Poor nose, but she is so happy to have her ice cream cone!

Amazing friends, brought over these Tombstone brownies to brighten our day, and tummies. They sure know how to make us feel better!


And this book is official her new favorite book. We read 3 times straight the first night. And the second night I lost count. Thanks Wassons.

  1. Oh man that nose! I'm sorry! I'm sure it was worse for you than it was for her. I'd walk through fire before seeing Harper hurt.

    Harper has that book in English and she also has a matching mouse doll. She loves the mouse. It's from Kohl's. I think Alex needs one.
