Our first broken bone :(

We were at a holiday get together with a group of my college friends. The boys were playing in the basement with the other kids and Riley came up the stairs crying saying his arm and shoulder hurt. His cry was like no other I had ever heard, and after realizing that he couldn't pick up his arm I thought it was time to take him to the Children's ER. A quick x-ray and a visit from the doc confirmed that his collarbone was broken. We visited an orthopedist on Monday afternoon who fitted him with a better sling and ordered 3 weeks of no basketball or gym class. While I'm thankful that this was a pretty mild broken bone, I still hope it's our last!

The next day Riley's sweet friend Addison brought him a special cookie and a magazine as a get well present!
