We managed to escape anything MAJOR other than minor stitches with all my kids until today. You would think a broken bone would have been caused by the monkey bars, riding a bike, or even jumping from a brick wall (all of the above my son does). But, no he managed to fracture his forearm at the growth plate having a pillow fight with Jared and his friend Landon.
I knew it was serious when Weston wouldn't stop crying. Normally, a hug will solve the tears from continuing to flow, but this time the scream of agony and pain lasted longer than a few minutes. Luckily Doug had a bandage to hold him over until the next day (when he casted it).
He wasn't too big on me documenting as you can see.
Weston sat so still without a whimper while dad took an x-ray and molded it. Thank goodness for daddy M.D.! Let's just hope this is the last we will see of broken limbs for a while. He is already back to riding a bike, climbing and jumping. However, he wouldn't be Weston if he wasn't back to doing his everyday things. He is definitely the adventurist of the family!
