Black toe, Nails to go

So last week Carson decided to play with the 10 pound weight I had just received for my birthday, and accidentally dropped it...on his toe/foot. His toe was bleeding, and he was in some pain. To help him "feel" better Ryan wrapped it all up in an ace bandage. It was kinda funny to see. He is doing fine now, but the toe is purple/blue/black and I'm sure the nail will fall off at some point. Speaking of nails falling off...Half of Carson's fingernails are looking like they are going to fall off...and for no apparent reason that I can think of. He hasn't smashed them anywhere or injured his hands in anyway, but you can definitely see some new nails growing, and the old nail separating and showing signs that it will soon disconnect. Anyone know why this might be happening? Is there a vitamin or something that he could be missing? Anyone have experience with this?

Since I do not have the ability to upload photos right now I'll just have to tell you what I did for my project this week. I made Carson a little tote bag for his Book of Mormon. He had a bag he used to take to church, but it got ripped up. I took the little guy to JoAnn's with my this week and let him pick out his own fabric. I tried to convince him to get some cool patterned stuff, but he chose plain blue and plain green cotton flannel stuff. I'm not quite sure what material it really is...it was a remnant piece that just said cotton. Anyway, it is a simple bag, but I enjoyed making it up as I went along. I definitely made it harder than it should have been, but I'll know better for the next time I make a bag! This is my AC#6.
(Here is what happens when I upload photos...on ANY site. They either won't load period, or come out discolored and off. Does anyone know why???)

I'm sorry, I'm pretty clueless as to what could be the problem. I'm sure it is nothing too serious. Good luck with the mystery!
