No, he didn't get the cast in Park City hitting the slopes, this is just a shot of one of Freddy's serial casts, as the docs like to call them. Since he was born with a club foot, he has to have it corrected by a series of casts. About every 3-4 days he gets a new one. He's progressed a lot already, much faster than we thought he would (they told us 2-3 months but it's been two weeks and in another week or so he'll be nearly done with the casting).
The cast is a pain in the butt: we think it probably makes him uncomfortable at times and Freddy never tires of soiling it during diaper changes. But it's really not that big a deal. Someone asked the other day why we hadn't put a photo up of the cast, and it was really only because Freddy's almost always gettin' his swaddle on. That's just how he rolls.
I'll try to keep some photo updates on his progress, the foot looks AMAZINGLY better compared to when he was born. If anyone wants to sign the cast, Frederick will receive you by appt. only, of course :)

We would like an opportunity to sign the cast soon. Please ask Frederick to work us in at his earliest convenience-- Adam plans to autograph it "2 cute 2 b 4-gotten."
We have to get the boys together for their first play-date (sleep-date?) soon!
Melissa and Adam
