Glad I got the walking on video...


...because that is the one and only time he did it! He has had PT and wouldn't hardly stand. Im glad I had the video to show OT and PT or they wouldve never believed me. ;o) He will not do it for us either. I even tried to take him back to Nichole's carpet...nope. He is a stink pot. He refuses, falls to the ground, laughs and take off doing his chimp crawl.
His PT did introduce him to a tricycle this week. He was checking that thing out and very concerned that it would fall over. He did really well. Hilarious when she wrapped his feet to the pedals. But he was ok with it after a few minutes. As you can see above, we are still using the protective and it has prevented more head injuries! We love that thing...

Still not saying anything but making more sounds, and almost says "uh oh" sounds more like "uh uh"
We started introducing dusting foods, like ground up pretzels. He aint having that either. He still is licking, but not wanting it IN his mouth and this month it has been a bit worse. He likes to lick pretzels but hates it "dusty". He had a wet cough that started around the 4th, and it is lingering. We were quite happy there was no O2 needed, praise the Lord, but when he coughs it makes the reflux want to come up more, which causes him to retch. Having the nissin surgery which doesnt allow puke to come up makes it worse. ( yet he had to have it to keep food down) Another vicious cycle, and a little set back in the eating department. So that is why I believe he is refusing orally even more. But we are ok with it. We are not in any hurry. Thank God for gtubes. ;o)

We are trying to get on a cloth diaper kick. We have a few so far and they are so cute. I have to learn a few more things about it before we are all cloth. Daddy doesnt seem very fond of it....but I am thinking he'll adapt. =0p

  1. Its funny how they do things just to tease us.

    I hope the licking continues and turns into eating. That would be so great. He seems to be doing so well!!

    Keep going Camden!! Way to go!!

  2. That video is awesome!! WTG Camden!

    Sorry about the stalls in the walking and eating departments. Marissa has done that too. It's like these little stinkers know exactly what we want and they know they don't have to... so they don't! ;-) He'll get back to it soon.
