Cedric's first broken arm

Cedric broke his arm...well...it's a compression break and since his bones are soft, it shows up as a bubble on the x-ray.  Nonethless, he needs a cast.   Luckily, it's his right arm and he's a lefty.  He's pretty bummed because this means he can't play baseball.  There are only a few games left, but baseball is his favorite sport.  Poor guy. 
 
Here is a picture of Cedric shortly after he got his cast on.  He did manage to get over his sadness and run around with the other kids.  We are figuring things out, like how to get shirts on and off over the cast and how to do baths.  Although, Cedric has already declared that he'll get no baths for 3 weeks.  Um....nice try.  :-)  Actually, it's just a splint right now.  He'll get the cast in a few days.  The Dr says he will have the cast on for at least 2 weeks.
