Less than 24 hours later

A little more confident about sitting up-as long as someone is nearby.

Standing up when holding on, but still a bit shaky.  He did try to pull up for the first time just hours after the cast removal.  His legs were not happy about that.  Poor kid.  But by the end of the night, he was all over it.

And all about trying to walk.

Yes, I know it's a blurry picture, but that felt appropriate.

And the real winner was the morning after.
I had the nerve to step into the other room for all of two minutes to switch the laundry a whopping 23 hours after this boy was freed from the cast.

I came back in to find him waiting for me.
Up here.

I do believe he's recovering just fine.
