I(t)'ll Make You Famous

So if you haven't yet heard, Aiden broke his arm on Saturday. He fell off the neighbor's trampoline. Here he is at the hospital that night

The ER never casts we learned, so they splinted it and told us to see a Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon later. We were able to get him into the Orthopedic today. He picked a red cast (probably to match his hair).

A few good things about his broken arm:
1) He keeps listing all the things he won't be able to do, like get stuff for himself, write, and go to school (I told him about the error of his ways on the latter, although we did let him stay home today).
2) It makes him look tough.
3) We let him wear the same shirt for 3 days (Gross, I know. But you try moving his arm and having him scream bloody murder the entire time.)
4) It made him quite famous. Everyone wanted to sign it!




Three weeks of this. We'll see how much he loves it after one...

The second picture you posted proves Aiden knows how to give a normal ADORABLE smile. The first and last pictures are a bit SCARY.. lets work on it Aiden! :) Congrats on the first (and lets hope last) cast.

In one of the pediatric clinics here they have some brochures on the dangers of trampolines. I'll pick one up for you.
