Broken Collarbone

Well, we have our first official broken bone. Justin broke his collarbone on New Year's Eve. He and Mason we climbing on the play structure at the mall that they got tangled up in each other and fell. At first I didn't think anything was wrong. However, Justin would cry when I tried to pick him up under his arms. Other than that, he seemed fine.



After naptime we decided we better get him checked out (plus we have new, more expensive insurance starting 1/1). Tommy spent 4 hours at urgent care...and sure enough, it was a broken bone! Here is the x-ray. Poor Justin, there is nothing that they can do for him...they didn't even give him a sling. And, at this age, no good drugs.



So far, Justin is being a pretty good sport. Today has definitely been his most whiney. Guess we have to take it slow for a while!

Oh poor Justin...give him a gentle hug from Auntie Sarah! We missed you guys at the Rogers' Christmas this year. Great pictures.
