Broken leg!

Sunday: Aiden was showing Dad how to jump off "the wall" (2.5ft high) and twist at the same time... Well that cool trick ended in a trip to the emergency room! He hurt his leg on Sunday afternoon, there was no swelling or bruising, just Aiden refusing to walk on it. We thought we will give it some time to heal by itself.
Monday: Dad took Aiden to emergency care where the x-rays showed a fracture in his tibia. Aiden was in good spirits and talked the doctors' and nurses' heads off. After getting a temporary splint he was able to pick out a new car following his hospital visit!
Tuesday: Zack and Mom took Aiden to the orthopedic surgeon and after 3 hours of mostly waiting and filling out paperwork, our little patient has a pretty blue full-leg cast. The boys were super stars, being extremely patient and well behaved, although I always wonder if they will help you sooner if your kids are screaming...
Aiden's leg is considered a "toddler's fraction" and they expect it to heal in 3-4 weeks. He will be able to walk with the cast, so he will probably go to school again on Friday. Hopefully he will have figured out going to the bathroom by himself by then. The cast has to stay dry, which will make for interesting bath times!
