    kim - it was a bunch of things! I broke my first arm at about 2 and it was my older brother's fault! lol... I would say about 4 of the times my older bro was involved (silly things like him pushing me off the bed while we were jumping, playing football on our knees in the house and he pushed me into the couch - etc) As I got older, I kept re-breaking the same couple spots with things such as falling, cheerleading, etc. so that's how the number got so high - but I had a total of 11 casts on my arms! lol It got so bad when I was younger that they took me aside at the doc's office and asked me if my parents hit me!! it was crazy... luckily, the last broken arm I had was sophomore year in HS!

    Yikes, that is pretty nuts! Boys are so rough- I know it's a stereotype, but that's my opinion too. Of course, I am an only child though... DH broke both of his legs (not at the same time), and I thought that was bad!
