First of all, Makai turned one! We had a great party Saturday with many friends… 32 adults and 26 kids in total. Not bad, eh!?! I made a whack load of cookies for everyone and Darnell planned some relay games. Everyone had a lot of fun…. except perhaps for the birthday boy, which leads to the fractured arm part. But first, some pictures of the party….
Friday morning I realized that Makai couldn’t put any weight on his arm. I’m not sure how he injured it, but if he tried to use it, his arm would buckle and he would wail. The doctors didn’t find the fracture Friday so for his birthday party on Saturday, he was attempting to crawl/walk/fall with a broken wing :( But after the misdiagnosis, three hospital visits, and amazing help from an American doctor friend, the arm was casted and ready to properly heal. Here's our little champ soon after majorly freaking out while the doctor casted it...
After spending half of Easter Sunday at the hospital (thank you Reg for hanging out with Cody!), we got home and put the kids to bed and then Reg promptly shooed us out the door to enjoy, of all things, a Jars of Clay concert just down our street. A very random end to a crazy weekend… but singing along to the all-too-familiar songs (a trip back to grade nine!) with some dear Filipino friends ended up being just what we needed.
Aww! Makai looks sooo sad. But the party looks like a lot of fun. Wish we could have been there to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteThat’s a fantastic event space Atlanta! Everybody seems to have been enjoying a lot. Was there a concert as well? so cool! He is so adorable! I wish he gets well soon. He reminds me a lot about my nephew. He also turned one last month, it was great fun at the party but unfortunately no concert.
