Another Milestone

By now you will have noticed our little man has a new addition - a plaster cast immobilising his left arm. You'd think he'd had his fill of medical procedures for now, but apparently not. In his eagerness to get walking Oliver has broken his arm. We think it may have happened a few days ago, but he only made any noises about it as I headed in to hospital today. He didn't seem too happy when I grabbed him by the wrist - actually, he screwed up his face and started to cry. He was happy enough using it, but didn't take to kindly too any pressure. So the lovely Dr Angela organised for an x-ray of his arm and sure enough, a nice little crack through his radius. So we headed down to see the bone ladies and got a nice big plaster put on.

Did I mention that only I went in to hospital this time. We decided that we would try to see how it went since we are weaning him off some of his breastfeeds, and mum needed a break. So for dad's first solo visit, we walked out with a plaster cast - nice one dad. It actually went quite well. Our baby is becoming a little boy and isn't quite as needy as he used to be.

Here he is with some of his new books that Sue & Bruce bought him for his birthday. Thanks Sue and Bruce - they're fantastic.
