Cast Away

Yesterday after school I took Cooper to the doctor to have his cast removed. After seven weeks in a full arm cast, I'm sure it felt quite different to have the arm bare. Cooper had a little trouble moving his elbow and wrist, which is to be expected after having them immobilized for so long. The break didn't heal quite straight, there is a bit of a bend and bump there just below the elbow. Back at home, it was into the bath to try and soak off the dead skin that had collected under the cast (and just to be able to take a bath without having to worry about keeping the cast up and out of the water). Then on Friday ... we went to Grandma and Grandpa's pool. As Cooper had not been able to swim during our vacation to Bear Lake last week, I had promised him that we'd go as soon as he got his cast off. I should have been a little more careful with the sunscreen though, as he did get burned on his white little wrist!

So ... quiz time ... what FIVE colors has Cooper had for his casts?
