Another Trip to Valley Children's

Our girls are by far the more frequent residents of Valley Children's Hospital with their various breathing issues so I guess Logan, in a mad and jealous rage felt that he deserved some quality time with the nurses. He is also quite fond of jumping off of various objects as often as chance permits, so park visits are frequently spent by mom and dad convincing him that he might wish to show some reserve with respect to potential base jumping sites. He rarely understands, given that he is 4 and has somewhat miraculously escaped injury in his life to this point. Slides are an acceptable substitute when mom and dad are watching too closely and give us relatively little alarm. The most recent visit was made the 7th of this month and it was on this outing that he made his way down his favorite twisty slide and decided to stop and stand up at the bottom. Too easy a jump to concern him he leapt to his fate. We have since discovered a new type of fracture that until now has eluded our knowledge. Logan suffered a buckle fracture which compresses the bone and can be seen on the x-rays where the bone bulges out around the fracture plane. He now sports a blue "Thomas" cast which he has unfortunatley discovered grants him super powers in the punching department. Playing rough with the boy has been slightly more hazerdous ever since but fortunately for us there is only 2 more weeks seperating us from the sissy punches we're used to.
