We didn&#8217;t expect that.  It wasn&#8217;t swollen on Wednesday when it happened and we hadn&#8217;t unwrapped the temporary cast that Insta-Care had given her.  According to our pediatrician it can take 3-4 days for it to swell.  <\/p>\n<p>So this morning we took her in and she loves that it&#8217;s so colorful.<\/p>\n<p>The twins also had physicals this morning.  They are healthy and growing well.  We asked for the lab to run a blood panel on both of them, just in case.  <img src='http:\/\/www.chezadria.com\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' \/>  We haven&#8217;t got the results back but I think if something was amiss we&#8217;d have heard.  <\/p>\n<p>Taking the 3 kiddos (3 and under) to the doctor at once was an adventure.  Phil and I both were there and spent our time chasing babies and answering questions and trying to distract little ones and rolling our eyes at how hard it is to keep 3 little ones contained in the same room when they&#8217;re tired of the toys and they don&#8217;t want to be there.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday is our blood drive in Serenity&#8217;s honor, and on Thursday we go back to the oncology clinic to start interim maintenance.  Other than that not a lot is going on.  Our oldest is watching 4 kids this week so they came over here today and our kids loved having playmates.  When they were all in the van I thought to myself, <em>&#8220;This is what it would be like to have 10 kids.&#8221;<\/em>  (Two of ours are staying with family members for the summer.)  By the end of the day I was feeling a little frazzled so Phil gave me a break for some mommy time.  It&#8217;s not often that I choose to spend my mommy time tidying up the house, but it desperately needed it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?a=lZUgEJ\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?i=lZUgEJ\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?a=5lFyFj\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?i=5lFyFj\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?a=F0f4nj\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?i=F0f4nj\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?a=KjrKMj\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?i=KjrKMj\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?a=TjmR1j\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~f\/chezadria\/hmle?i=TjmR1j\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serenity got a purple cast today.<br \/>\nWe took her in Friday but her wrist was too swollen to cast.
