Casting Day [Family Blog]

This has been such a crazy last 28 hours. Here, here for the end of the day! This morning Olivia woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed so we started off with a walk in some gorgeous fall weather.

We cut the arm of an old sweater off to make it easier to sport the cast

Soon after that, James and I dropped Olivia off with friends and went to a long morning at the OBGYN office. We had another ultrasound to see if our little boy is going to have clubbed feet. While we need to wait for the radiologist to assess the pictures, no one could help but notice how nice and straight his legs to his feet were. I am hopeful. Then we got to stick around for an appointment and the gestational diabetes test (that drink is foul).

We got some fun views of our baby boy!
Grandma was kind enough though to point out that his profile looks like Darth Vader.

After a quick lunch and a nap, we all headed down to Riverton to get the real cast on Olivia’s arm. The doctors and nurses were awesome and now Olivia has a fashionable hot pink cast which she will be showing off for four weeks.

 I doubt my pictures do Olivia justice because she really has been an excellent sport during this adventure.
