And the cast comes off...





Well, today Nicholas got his soft cast off from his thumb surgery two weeks ago. He has done very well with it on. Very difficult to keep a soft dressing clean and dry on a three year old for two weeks, but we did pretty well! We hope to be all better and able to move the hand once off, but Nicholas is very hesitant to go see the hand doctor, since we kind of tricked him into the surgery. He was not to sure about the whole thing and every time we say the hand doctor, he thinks he is having surgery. So he will be happy to know that it is a painless appointment today. But here is a picture of what his had looked like in the cast. We still have to keep a band aid on it until the stitches fall out and we need to keep moving it so we don't have to do therapy. So that is my idle threat to him, so he has to keep it moving!!!! We shall see, he can be quite dramatic at times and this thumb thing, he could win an emmy!!!!
