First Broken Bone.

Noah fell off his bike today and managed to obtain a buckle fracture. We debated bringing him in,  since after a few hours he still wouldn't use it, but he wasn't in a ton of pain. Then I was opening a toy package, with those annoying zip ties, and i slipped and stabbed myself in the wrist with the box cutter. So we thought we may as well both go in. I'll spare you the pictures of my wrist (which I got off easy with glue and a tetnis shot) but here's a few of Noah and his arm. Red arrow points to the buckle. There's a fracture there,too, but it's hard to see for us normal people. He has a temporary splint until he sees an orthopedic surgeon but the doc says he's likely to have an over the elbow cast. Hoping for a waterproof one so he can still swim.
