Casting #6

You might be wondering how am I posting the future,it's only Monday and he switches casts on Wednesdays, well I'm not. The same night that Timbo got his last casts he started working his way out. Since it was after hours I couldn't call the Doctors office. The next day was Thanksgiving , they were closed the following day (Friday), and of course were closed for the weekend so today was the first time I could get ahold of anyone. I started calling at 8:55 and they open at 9. I explained that he was working his way out of both casts, just a little bit on the right but on the left side he had nearly moved it 1 1/2 inches. How do I know you ask. Well I started marking his thigh with a marker to be sure he wasn't getting out of them. Anyway they said since he was a baby they wanted to see him to check him out.
Don't those feet look good!!!! So here is what I think happened. When Dr McGoodDaddy puts on casts he always bends Timothy's knee during casting but McNewGuy didn't. Jeff also pointed out that his casts weren't up as high on his leg as usual. I'm I mad? No. That may seem weird to you being that he is my baby and all but let me explain. Sarah, our wonderful nurse, told me that as long as she has been there they have never casted a baby before and McNewGuy seems kinda young but I trust everyone in the office. Someone, or baby, has to be the first and I'm okay with that. They are competent and trustworthy and I am so glad I have them. If I weren't so shy I would hug all of them, especially McGoodDaddy.
Like his sunny yellow casts

McGoodDaddy commented again on how great Timothy's flexibility is getting. Oh, I almost forgot, Timothy had some bruising on the foot of the leg he got out so far. I guess it was just pressing on his poor little foot. But as you can see from his picture he made it just fine. I love my little guy.
