On Thursday night Jaron played (amateur) basketball with some boys from church and came home hopping through the front door with an ankle the size of a basketball. Lets just say I was not impressed. I had an antenatal appointment at the hospital the next morning, so we dropped Jaron off at the emergency doors, he hopped himself in. The kids and I went to my appointment, ran into Devonport and picked up a few groceries and then picked him up at the emergency doors again, this time sporting a half-cast and crutches.
BROKEN ANKLE. Not just sprained, but broken. It was too swollen to put a proper cast on so he has to go back this week when the swelling settles down to have that put on. Full recovery in about 6 weeks - baby due in about 6 weeks...talk about timing!
Oscar is enjoing playing with his crutches...usually they end up being a temple (pictured below) or a microphone. Oh, and Jaron can still manage to participate in household chores...I may not be the most sympathetic person around, but I assure you I didn't ask him to start vacuuming, he did it all on his own accord!

Oh no! Sorry to hear about that for your sake (and his too of course!) I haven't commented before, but I enjoy your blog, and read it often - my husband is an architect too and I have a little one 8 months. Congrats on a lovely blog and best wishes for upcoming months!
It's good to know my husband isn't the only one who doesn't know when to hang it up. ;) Happy Healing!
Hope it heals up well before Bub arrives.
