Guess Who is FINALLY Walking????

You got it!!!! Tuesday night it was like something just clicked. Kohen is everywhere. It is still hard to believe. He very rarely falls and is so proud of himself. As soon as I figure out how to post a video I will. We still just sit and watch him. After all we have waited 17 months!!!! I give all the credit to Brooke Craine, Kohens physical therapist. She is absolutely wonderful. I cannot wait until tomorrow so she can see him.

Happy 1st Birthday Kale!

Today we went to Kale Searcy's birthday party. He will be one on Wednesday. It was at the Vanndale Fun Park. I didn't even know Vanndale had a park but it was really nice. I was very impressed. The first birthday is always so fun. We had a great time.

Mindy made the cake. It was a caterpillar. She has always been very creative. The cake looked great Mindy. Yummy too!!!

A Future Monet????

Kohen and I painted (with washable paint) last weekend. It was a blast. I gave him some paper and let him get after it. The funniest part was that we were outside and our cat would not get out of the way. By the way our cat is white and fluffy. The cat had more paint on him than the paper!!!

Kohen has Discovered Ketchup

With all of Kohen's sensory problems, I have a hard time getting him to eat. He usually loves chicken but for some reason he would not eat it Thursday night. I put about a half teaspoon of ketchup on his tray and dipped a piece of chicken in it. He loved it!!! He ate every piece of chicken on his tray. Of course he smeared the ketchup all over his face and his tray. I didn't care, at least he ate!!!

Just some pictures...

Future TBirds!!

Friday night before the football game we were tailgating. This is Kohen and Kale. He is Josh and Mindy Searcy's little boy. They weigh exactly the same and are almost the same height. By Kohens adjusted age, they are only 2 months apart.

My Climber!!

This boy can get on anything!!! I am just waiting on him to climb out of his bed!!

Finally

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I just got my camera back. It is repaired and ready to go. First things first...Kohen's tooth is fine. We went to the pedodontist to see what she thought about it. She gave me three options: 1. Do nothing, 2. shave off the broken sharp point, or 3. put a white crown on it. She said she could not sedate him because he was to small so he would have to be held down while she did the crown. Thus, she shaved off the sharp point!!! I was very impressed with Dr. Cartillar. She and her staff were great with him. Most people have not even noticed it. I tried to get a picture but to no avail. He wouldn't be still long enough for me to hold his lip and snap the picture.

Other than that we are all fine just busy. Kohen goes to physical therapy twice a week and occupational therapy once a week. He is ALMOST walking. He will stand with no assistance for a long time. Sometimes he will take a step or two but I don't think he realizes he actually walked. His favorite mode of transportation is holding onto one of my fingers. He can run!!!
