Cade has made it one week in his cast and is doing Amazing! He really hasn't let it slow him down. He struggled a little with figuring out how to get comfortable the day he came home with it, but by the next day was getting up and down from the floor fine and is pretty much able to do everything he did before. He is sleeping fine in it and his appetite hasn't been restricted at all. Luckily the biggest challenge has been figuring out what clothes work. Cade returned to preschool last Thursday. Over the weekend, he enjoyed boy's night with Daddy and Rylan. Saturday and Sunday we hung out at home and worked on potty training. Monday, he went to a party at a neighbor's house and enjoyed a bounce house and playing with lots of kids. He has only asked once or twice to take the cast off. Daddy gave his cast some swag Monday night by adding Superman duct tape to hold down some of the mole skin that was peeling up from his clothes rubbing. He's been getting sponge baths and enjoyed a good hair wash Monday night over the kitchen sink. This week, he is going to preschool Tuesdays-Thursday and has worn underwear-yay! The boys will stay home with me Friday and then we'll have our first long car ride in the cast as we travel to Owensville for the weekend. Here's some pics of our little trooper from this week.
Love the superman duct tape! Way to go on potty training! Have a fun, safe trip to Owensville :)
