Me and Daddy at the Wild Feast 2009 at IBC!

David being David

My new bath chair

I also got my new bath chair yesterday too. It is bit but again I will grow into it. It was very comfortable though. Mommy has it on the lowest setting. It also tilts up so that I would be sitting up like in a chair but for now this works the best. Mommy and daddy I'm afraid are going to have to take off their shower doors because it's getting a little harder for mommy to bathe me especially with my chair being so big. And who knows where mommy and daddy are going to store it because their bathroom is very very small and they need to take a bath and shower too. Oh well...I guess we'll figure out something. I just thought you all might enjoy seeing the pictures of my new bath chair and stander.

My Stander

I just got my new stander yesterday to help me learn how to stand up better and put some good weight through my legs and feet. Am I starting to look more like a big boy now? As you can see in the pictures I certainly have a lot of room to grow into this contraption. :-) Yesterday my therapist spent time setting it all up and mommy and her had me in and out of it getting the adjustments right for my height. And finally...success. They put me in it and left me there for about 10 minutes and I did good. We have to start out by me just being in it for like 10 minutes at a time working up to about a half hour. Because I'm now standing and in an upright postition it makes my heart work harder so we don't want to overdue it. It's also good for strengthening my heart muscles and all. You probably can't tell from the picture but it is tilted back a bit. It will raise straight up but again I have to work towards that because we don't want to overwork my heart. I think this is a neat little contraption. :-)

Bye Bye to my Green and Blue Dinasaur Suit :-(

Hi Everybody. Guess what...mommy had to throw away my green and blue striped dinosaur suit. It was a very very favorite outfit! I would have to say one of my favorites and it's gone now. :-( See...here's what happened. I have been having lots and lots of gas still and so I was doing my passing gas thing and mommy changed my wet diaper. After I got a nice clean diaper I pooped some. Then after mommy changed that diaper I was doing some more passing gas and mommy had to pick me up for that one to help me get it out and boy was it explosive! I passed my gas and then I pooped some more...only this time it was bad. Mommy knew I had pooped so she layed me back down to change my diaper and what to her wondering eyes appeared but a whole cute suit filled with poop! :-) Yes...I had pooped all up the back of me and it was all squishing out my diaper up the back and my suit was nasty. It was really too much to be able to clean and wash so mommy had to throw it out. I guess mommy is just going to have to find me another one but she doesn't remember where this one came from. She's thinking it's Walmart but does anyone who have little ones know where this one might have come from? Is it Walmart? Please...I really really need a new one. I'm very sad I had to part with it! It was such a fun day for mommy yesterday because after I had done all that of course she had to do my laundry and change the comforter and stuff on the couch from previous spit ups and she went to change my suit after that and started putting one on me and I guess it somehow got folded back up and put in the drawer dirty because it has slobbers and stuff all down the front of it and smelled pretty bad so she had to take that one off and put on another outfit. I was keeping mommy busy yesterday but we had fun. :-) Catch everyone later.

Just me being cute.

January 24, 2008

Well, hi everyone. Things here are going ok. I have certainly been keeping mommy and daddy busy still. You can pray for me because I have been really really really gassy lately which is keeping mommy and daddy on their toes. Other than that thing like I said are ok here and we've been having fun as a family. Just to keep you all updated...I have an appointment in April to see the reconstructionist at Johns Hopkins to see what the next step is with getting my nose operated on and opening up my nasal passages. Really I don't have any appointments anywhere until April which helps out so we don't have to worry about the winter weather travel. I will talk to all later.

What did mommy do...before and after pics

This is kind of a funny story you see. Mommy was giving me a nice little boy haircut and it was so very cute and boyish but seeing as how it's hard to hold my head up anyways I moved and this is how mommy tried to correct it... (see first two pics). It wasn't totally bad looking but as you can see mommy had to go ahead and shave my whole head so that it would be more even and grow in better... (see last 2 pics). I think I look more like my daddy with my head shaved and almost balled. :-) Now...daddy would tell you a different story and say that mommy just messed up my haircut and I didn't move at all. So...what's the whole truth? Well, we'll just keep that between all of us and let mommy and daddy duke it out. :-)

So peaceful in my swing motion bed!

January 10, 2009

Hi There Everyone. I hope this new year finds you all well. I am doing pretty good myself. I have been keeping daddy and mommy busy still but I don't think that will change. :-) I just had my bath and daddy just went to Dunkin Donuts to get mommy a nice good coffee so mommy and I thought we would take some time to update the blog. We have increased my seizure medicines because I was having more seizures but that seems to be more under control now since the increase in medicines. I have had a lot and I mean a lot of gas again which is not much fun for any of us. I also have a little bit of a slight cold I think and that's not much fun either. Other than all of that though as I said things are pretty well and busy here like normal. Last weekend we had all my Aunts and Uncles and cousins around so that was fun celebrating the new year with them. Well, I will let mommy go now since daddy is back with the coffee and I will let mommy enjoy it. Well, at least I will try and let mommy enjoy it. :-) Talk to everyone later.

Oh so cuddly

Does this look comfy or what?

Go Go Go Gators!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boy am I happy that the Florida Gators won another National Championship!!! Not only am I excited though but daddy and mommy are pretty happy too. After the game was over we all were running around the house doing the gator chomp. It was so much fun. :-)

Men's breakfast

Hi Everybody. Every year our church has a men's and boys New Years breakfast and of course daddy had to take me. :-) You can tell that he just wore me out so much that all I wanted to do was go to sleep after I got home. It was nice though. I liked hanging out with daddy and letting him "show me off." I think I look like a little man in this outfit what do you think?
