No more cast day, yipee!

It was only three and a half weeks, and it was soooo much easier than a broken leg, but we've still been counting down the days!  Counting down until when we can wear long sleeves and a jacket.  Counting down until we can take a bath without a plastic bag.  Today was the day.  Happy, happy day!
She was prepared.  She remembered the saw from getting her leg cast off (which she screamed through and then got angry that they were throwing away her beautiful pink cast!)  This time she understood what was going to happen, and she was happy.  Interestingly enough, this attitude confused the poor cast room tech who stopped halfway through sawing and asked me, "How old is she?  She's doing really well!"  Experience was my response. 
To celebrate we went to the Discovery Science Center because Dora and Diego are there! 
This made our little girl super happy!  It was fun to watch her play and slide while still managing to keep her arm in cast position.
It was such a huge hit with our cast-less little girl that we will be going back as often as possible over the next few months.
