Moose Mittens




Well this has not been a good week for poor lil moose man. His hands were badly burned on Sunday when he touched the outside of our ridiculously hot oven door. The door was closed. Needless to say he's been a favorite patient at the ER and in the burn clinic this week. He is going to be just fine and his hands are healing perfectly. Having bandages and socks over his hands has been very developmentally frustrating for him - he can't grip things (like his little walker wagon), feed himself, crawl or pull himself up easily. All things considered, he's been in a great mood despite all that has happened.

Here are some photos of him with his bandages on. The one of him eating the biscuit is before we learned handy trick of placing socks over the bandages to keep him from taking them off.

And, in a surprising turn of events, Wyatt has requested to have his hand bandaged too.
