Xray Day

 
Look at that big boy!!  Theo's birthday lasted for 3 days.  But since Amy has the pics I will wait and post about it later.  He did spike a fever before all the excitement and Kaia took very good care of him.  Very nice sisterly moment. 

 In the meantime... Carl's knee.  
It's a chip of the ol' patella.  
You actually have to rotate the photo 90 degrees counter clockwise (or your head 90 degrees clockwise) to see the picture correctly... the chip lies ABOVE the knee.  Going on 11 days now and healing is slow but steady.  Seeing the physio was the best thing he could have done.  He initially scared us into thinking that Carl would have to be evacuated to Canada for surgery... so now a little chip doesn't seem so bad.  We will just have to give it some time and then see how he feels after the swelling is down and circulation back up.  Lots of ice and regular massage.  Doesn't sound SO bad... but Carl isn't one to sit around for long.  Hopefully he doesn't go mad before this is over.
