New Cast

Isaiah got his new cast on Wednesday. We all trooped over to the orthopedist to help Isaiah (Dad even left work early), and much to our dismay it appears that Zaiah actually broke BOTH bones in his arm . . . the radius AND the ulna (sp?), thankfully nowhere near growth plates though. Zaiah had it in his mind that he wanted a silver cast but once he got there they didn't offer silver. SOOOO, he went with the much more exciting (in my opinion) glow-in-the-dark cast. They have to keep it above the elbow for the first three weeks but then they cut it off and put on a below the elbow cast for the last three weeks (I'm excited cuz that should cut down on the stinkieness). The only good thing to come out of all of this is that Alaina has decided her career goals, she would like to be an orthopenis when she grows up!

awwww poor guy! But at least Alaina knows what she wants to be. I'm curious though, what exactly would an orthopenis do?
