6 weeks

On Monday we had to go in and get his arms checked out.. The radiologist said it was a "plastic fracture." Which is for younger children, their bones don't break as easy as adults bones do, they bend to a certain point and then break. Kind of like a willow tree branch.
So of course since our luck this month hasn't been the ultimate best, we had to go to Primary Children's for an Orthopedic consultation.

Here's McGuire with the Splint....

Please Excuse the mess in the background..

Yesterday we had to go Primary Children's.. McGuire was such a great sport. He has MAJOR Stranger danger, and the nurses had to hold him for the radiograph since I can't with being prego and all.. At first he was scared to death.. but they were so warming and welcoming that it helped.

Here's the xrays of his arm...

This is the front view, can't really tell there is anything really wrong right....

This is the side view... That bone is NOT suppose to bend like that... This is the plastic fracture.

So we got to pick out a color for a cast.... He picked his favorite color, GREEN :)

They had this god send toy that calmed McGuire right down... so he was an angel during the cast making!

This is his mean face.. he really is excited about having the cast.. but he won't really tell you.

After the appointment McGuire says to me, "Mom, I'm like a superhero huh?!?"

I say back to him, "Your the ultimate superhero!"

6 weeks of no swimming, no dirt throwing and no bike riding... What we gonna do?!?
