Birthday Blues

Yesterday was my birthday and Will's half birthday. I can't believe he is 18 months old. Tuesday got off to a rough start....around 4:45 am Will fell off the bed. He was sleeping in a king sized bed with pillows all around him because he had climbed out of his pack and play twice. He hates that thing! So King Will got the king sized bed to himself, I slept on the floor beside him, and John slept on the couch. He laid around all day yesterday and was whiney so we figured it was a combination of being exhausted from being at the beach since Friday, he could have an ear infection, his head could be hurting from his fall etc. So we just comforted him and laid with him and assumed all would be fine. We went and picked up some birthday donuts...which were a big hit!
He has never had a donut before-he loved it (well mostly the chocolate on top).
As you can see, he just dove right in!

We drove home from the beach. He was an angel and slept most of the time. At home, he was fussy and we couldn't figure out what was wrong. We had his 18 month check up today so I just figured he would get checked out then.
At his check-up, she checked his ribs, arm, collar bone and decided he needed to have an X-ray. So we went across the street to Children's Hospital South where Will got his very first X-ray. It was then determined that he had fractured his clavicle. They sent us to an orthopedic specialist where it was confirmed he had fractured his clavicle and basically told us there is nothing they can really do. His body is programmed to heal something like this himself, it will just take 3-4 weeks. They said he can't go to the playground for 3 weeks and we should try our best to keep him from falling/climbing. If you know Will, you know my next 3 weeks aren't going to be easy...he is ALL BOY and ALL over the place. I took a picture of his first x-ray with my phone but can't figure out how to upload them on here. Please keep Will in your prayers! He winces in pain and cries out when I pick him up and it breaks my heart. The Dr. said he should be feeling pain free in about a week or so....let's hope so!
So yesterday was not exactly what I had in mind for my birthday...but Will comes first! I did receive a new lens for my camera from John and got to play with it a bit at the beach...I will post those pics as soon as I can...caring for my little patient may take up most of my time during the day.
