No More Monkey's Jumping on the Bed

Kyle with his soft cast

Kyle singing "5 Little Monkey's"

It all started at the zoo. Kyle was climbing on the railing and we kept telling him not to climb on the railing. He fell over and bonked his head on the ground. He didn't feel very well, so we went home. He started feeling better and our friends invited us over, so we went over to their house. The kids were upstairs and Kyle slipped off of the edge of the bed and landed on his arm. Janette took him to the doctor and he broke it right above the elbow. He is in a soft cast right now and he will get a "yellow" cast tomorrow.

You guys need to tie that boy down! I'm willing to bet it won't be the only broken bone for the Porter boys. Nice song Kyle!

Oh Poor Kyle!!!! Well it hasn't seemed to have broken his spirit at all, has it? Just a bone. :( I agree with "Johnson Family" that it won't be the only one. Hang in there you guys! Make sure they get lots of calcium in the meanwhile.

Poor little guy. Maybe he will have learned his lesson, maybe? Can't wait to see the 'yellow' cast.

I like the shark blankie and Kyle's sweet singing voice.

That's a bummer! Why the soft cast? Do they not wrap up a plaster cast right away anymore?
