Halfway through first postop cast

And things are going as smoothly as possible.  The cast doesn't seem to bother him in the slightest, and I'm actually not going to be surprised if he takes his first steps with the cast on.  He sure is trying, anyway.  The only issues we seem to be having is he's developed a callous on his second toe from dragging it around under the cast.  Well, that and he's peed on the darned thing twice now.  But, it doesn't seem to smell too badly at this point LOL.  Our first postop appointment is scheduled for November 16th, and we'll know more then.  In the meantime, I give my standard answer to the startled comments from by-standers when we're out - yes, I did tell him to stay off of the Harley, and he just didn't listen...boys will be boys, after all :-).  His sleep is back to normal - 11 hours + per night.  His eating is normal - we've transitioned to milk, but he's not processing that well, so we've shifted over to lactaid for a few months to give his tummy a little more time to be able to process the lactose.  Typical 12 month-old issues here.  Plus a heavy cast.
