Logan's broken arm

Logan went to a birthday party on Saturday.  When I picked him up from the party, the mom came out and told me that Logan had hurt his harm playing a game of 500 (a football game).  She wasn't sure if he was really hurt or if he just wanted to be home, but after he fell on his arm his attitude changed and he became withdrawn.  When I got him home we had him move his arm all around and he seemed fine and never cried so we gave him some medicine and let him rest. That afternoon he played a little football with the boys, but he always kept his arm against his body.  On Sunday morning it was still hurting so after sacrament meeting Melinda, Tyler and I took Logan to Urgent Care.  I told Logan they were going to take an x-ray and he became nervous because he said x-rays hurt.  I explained to him how they worked.  The only x-ray he had ever had was at the Dentist and I'll admit those are uncomfortable.  The Dr came in and looked and said he was pretty sure it wasn't broken, but we were going to do x-rays just in case because he'd been wrong before.  And sure enough, he had a green stick fracture of both the ulna and radius (meaning they were bent, but not broken).  The worst part was that Logan had just started piano and had just made a club basketball team.  

 Getting his splint on.

 We kept Tyler happy by letting him play with my phone.  He likes taking pictures of himself.

 His cast.  He only had to keep it on for 3 weeks, and it didn't stop him much.  He still went to his basketball practice 2x a week and played football with his brothers.

Aunt Tami sent him a present of a snuggie, a monkey and some sharpies so he could get his cast signed.  Grandma and Grandpa Smith also sent him an Angry Bird game.
