Miles breaks his foot
Well, I was able to put it off for 7 years; however, Monday night Miles put an end to my streak of cast-free living.
While he and Mahlon were playing in the backyard, Miles fell and somehow broke his foot. So today I took off early from work to get his glow-in-the-dark cast put on. He originally wanted pink (which is his favorite color), but they didn't have enough pink for a whole cast. He agreed to glow-in-the-dark on the condition that I draw a Care Bear on it.
After getting the cast on, I took him to Toys R Us. After an hour of browsing (the application of the cast took less than 15 minutes), we finally settled on a Hot Wheels set. As you can see from this photo, Miles feels pretty good about his purchase.
He gets the cast off in 4 weeks which is just in time for our big Disney trip. It may take that long for him to learn to walk with the cast on.
