My Little Boy's Boo-Boo Pt. 4

We spent most of last Sunday playing in the backyard!


The results of the afternoon.

Some sort of melt-down.
He was very annoyed that I wasn't immediately bending to his will, plus, I had the nerve to take his picture again...
Later in the week, helping me make pancakes for dinner!

He has a recent fascination with my shoes. No, not like that! He has figured out they can be used as ramps for his toy cars. Right.

Sweet and innocent when he sleeps.
This evening, while we were getting ready for bath, Cory took his wrap off of his hurt finger. And!! The crusty, black, scab-like piece of his finger came off. Ewwwww. However, underneath, was fresh, pink, healthy-looking skin! It looks almost normal! When his fingernail grows back, it should look totally normal we think!

We had no idea it would happen this fast! We didn't think it would happen until after our next doc visit. We weren't sure if we should keep it wrapped, the doctor had not told us that it might happen so soon. We've decided to keep it wrapped until Monday, then I will call and see what they want us to do. Some of the skin looks a little tender and hurty.


Can you BELIEVE IT? We are soooo lucky!

Thank Heavens! The finger is looking wonderful.
Looks like Wes had lots of fun playing outside. I bet he was exhausted.
Love you and miss you all.

Hey,

The finger looks great. By the way, Samantha lost the black piece also (last Monday), and underneath it, the new finger had grown. Her fingernail is already half the size of the original one. So, hopefully, when if fully heals the difference with other fingers won't be that noticeable.

Be... erm, nice. My fragile ego can't take too much honesty. Seriously though, I do love comments. Please tell me what you think!
