Tanner got his cast off!!!

Our poor little Tanner baby!! He has had quite a ride into 2009. Mitch fell while carrying him down the stairs on December 30. Luckily Mitch wasn't hurt, but Tanner broke his femur just above his knee. He was in his "Baby Smurf" cast for 4 weeks. Less than the 6-8 weeks they told us in the ER...and for that we are so grateful!!

He got the cast off on Thursday and seems to be doing ok. He's weak still and has a hard time sitting up straight for too, too long. He also doesn't seem to want to put any weight on his leg yet. We will be keeping an eye on him and hopefully he'll get stronger with every passing day.

His leg didn't actually look all that bad for being in the cast that long...what the video doesn't portray is how bad he STUNK!!! It was horrible!!

Anyway - the poor little dude didn't even make it to 1 year without a broken bone...this may not bode well for our parenting future. At least I waited until 6th grade for my first cast and crutches!




First full bath in 4 weeks! He was SO HAPPY!!


He's bringin' sexy back....

He's back and better than ever!!!
