Outside Fun Again

Fun and pain...
The other day I took the boys to the park which is about 5 blocks from our house so very convenient. Quinn enjoys playing on the playground while Isaiah goes to the skatepark that is right beside it. He is really trying to be some kind of "extreme" sports dude and this time he took his Razor and even wore his kneepads in preparation.

So while I snapped cute pics of Q playing, Isaiah was practicing his skills. Here is a long story made short...
He successfully conquered the large ramp on his Razor.
Razor snapped at the bottom, Izzy fell back on tailbone and caught himself with his elbow.
Holding back tears so he didn't look wimpy, he sat on the bench waiting for me to come over.
I found him very pale, limping in pain and sick to his stomach.
Started walking home and had to call E (calmly) because I thought maybe he was going to faint (and I still had Q and stroller).
Laid on couch nursing a very swollen elbow/forearm and feeling sick most of the evening.
Couldn't put pressure on arm for next 2 days so advised to have xrays done because of the nearness to his elbow.
Xrays fine. Whew.

This story told, here are some cute pics from that day until it went bad and some from this morning when the boys were playing outside together. Aren't they cute?
