It ain't no joke, its broke!


On the day we were packing up to come to Boston, David Hyrum took a spill and tumbled down the stair case in Raleigh. He had a big goose egg on his head but he stopped crying after about 5 minutes and took a nap. After he woke up he wouldn't crawl though. His wrist wasn't swollen or discolored so I thought it was just a sprain. When we got to mom and dad's house he still wouldn't crawl so after Christmas we finally took him in and had our fears confirmed that it was broken. The cast only has to stay on for 2 1/2 weeks and he has been a trooper through it all. He even knows how to army crawl with his bum arm. Poor little guy, I hope this isn't a permanent trend!

  2. Ouch! Did you cast him there or away from home? Good choice of color!

  3. I'm glad that he'll be crawling in no time. It was good to see you guys, even though it was short. We definitely need to do more eating next time we're together. :)
