Our First Crisis!

Crawling has not been a problem!



I love my Daddy!

First picture after we got home on Thursday

Well, we had our first crisis in the Hastings Family last week. Thomas fell off the changing table (going after his stuffed puppy that fell off) and broke his left arm....ugh....we didn't realize he had broken it until our peditrician referred us to Diagnostic Imaging to get it xrayed....and yes, he has a buckle fracture on his left arm right before his wrist. Since it was this kind of break we couldn't tell immediately because he could still move his arm and wrist...when he couldn't hold a hot wheel in his left hand and couldn't crawl on it, we knew something was wrong and off to the doctor's office we go....three doctors later, they were casting it at Campbell Clinic. He is adjusting just fine, doesn't even act like he has a cast on. Trying to get him not to wipe his mouth on it at mealtime has been a challenge but other than that we are good.

Chicago and more!

Thomas eating a lemon...now he doesn't even taste it, he just puts it close to his lips and starts making his face and shivering...he is such a clown!


Navy Pier ---weird to see Lake Michigan frozen!

Us at the John Hancock Observatory


Best cupcake place ever!!! (Brooke this pic is for you!)


Left snow in Memphis and got to more snow in Chicago...us at Millenium Park!


Robert and I at the Memphis Airport waiting for our flight to Chicago...we had to leave our house at 5:30am since the snow/ice storm had come through the day before.


Happy Birthday Kristen--we had a great time at Grisanti's celebrating your birthday!

I have been trying to do a new post and Blogger is not acting right this morning so our pictures below and the captions are not right....I'll try and redo later. It has been about a month sinced I have blogged. Robert and I had a great time in Chicago...my conference was great and Robert enjoyed exploring every day while I was in my sessions....we met up everyday for lunch and dinner! Thomas loved staying with Nana and PawPaw...I think he grew an inch and gained a pound while we were gone...HA! We have been back a little over a week and are back in our routine. Thomas has another ear infection in both ears and we are going to see an ENT specialist this week....looks like tubes may be in our near future...I'll keep everyone posted. See the pics below...I have more to add and will try and fix the others too. Oh, we went to Emma's dance recital that was in WM weekend before last...Thomas loved watching all the girls dance...he kept bouncing up and down on may lap dancing and pointing saying "GIRL"...he loves girls!!!
