Broken...AGAIN!

It was Friday the 30th of July, Ammon was completing his last day of work while I was home tending to Kent's every need as well as cleaning the house in order to leave by 5 to begin our trip home (don't you love how women are multitaskers). It is about 9:00 in the morning and I thought I would grab a bowl of snacks for Kent and place him in front of the shower while I cleaned myself up a little. I figured the earlier I showered, the earlier I could have the bathroom cleaned and checked off the list of things to do. Well as we, I had Kent by the left hand, were walking out of the kitchen his legs gave way and he collapsed only to catch himself with his right hand and forehead. Of course he cried and cried and I attributed it to the fact that it was nearing nap time. Therefore I quickly rearranged my schedule and laid Kent and myself down for a nap. After he woke up I turned on Yo Gabba Gabba (yes the unbelievably obnoxious show on Nick Jr.) handed over the bowl of snacks from the prior shower attempt and jumped in the shower. After I was done Kent began to cry again and being the mother I am figured it was just lunch time. I fed him, or tried to feed him and as I was wiping his hand off he let out a yelp. I knew something was hurt I just wasn't sure what, his hand or arm. I tried to get him to climb the stairs, he wouldn't, tried to get him to crawl, he wouldn't until I took his blanket away and he went for it and collapsed as he put his right hand on the floor. So with a wet head and no makeup I headed down the street to InstaCare. The doctor checked him out, said he was 80% sure he had a buckle fracture in his arm, but instead made us wait 45 minutes for an X-ray to find out it was indeed broken. We came home with another blue cast and a frazzled mother who still had an apartment to clean. Our landlords were so kind to let me skip vacuuming the living room and mopping the kitchen floor and thanks to that we got out of Ogden at out scheduled 5 pm.

The cast only slowed him down for about 24 hours.

Not happy he can't swim in the pool without the cast cover on his arm.
