Poor Katie!

Katie has had a couple of rough patches this weekend...
On Saturday she threw the biggest tantrum I have ever seen when she objected to havíng to back inside after playing with her friend J in the sandpit. She ran around the house wildly, threw her self on the floor, hit us and got herself so wound up that she was eventually sick... I hope this was an exceptional outburst and not a sign of things to come!
Being made to come inside might not warrent the sort of reaction we expeienced yesterday, but today she really did have a reason to be sad. We were out at IKEA looking for some bathroom storage and were about to leave the store. Katie ran away to the esculator, I ran after her and grabbed her rist to stop her from climbing on. She dropped to her knees to mark that she wasnt happy and then started balling her eyes out. Thinking it was another fit we picked her up and took her to the car. When we got back home we realised that she wasnt moving one of her arms. We took her to hospital and it turned out that she had a partially dislocated elbow :(. The doctor cracked it back into place and it was as good as gold in seconds (or maybe it was just all the painkillers that got shoved up her butt!). Now she appears to be fine but I have to swing her around by her feet for the next few weeks until it is completely healed.
