Family Update


In case I have yet to brag to you about our oldest - her latest report card was Straight A's AGAIN. And she made the HONOR ROLL AGAIN. Isabella is working on her science project - she's decalcifying bones. It's not nearly as complicated as that sounds, but very interesting. Her science partner is Briana. Their grade for this project was 105 points!!!!!




Thalia is Thalia. It's 10:40 pm and she insists on staying up way past her bed time. But daddy just got home, so I'm sure he'll get her into bed. :-D She's just about mastered how to flip. She loves to do that, we just have to make sure she doesn't roll into Lil Louie or Keyhole. Her favorite food lately is corn dogs.

Little Louie is supposed to start his speech therapy soon. It should be next week. His favorite word is papa. He loves to eat. Well he loves to eat whatever is on our plate. He gives good night kisses, too.

OK it's past my bedtime so I'm off for now.

Next Surgery

Okay this is my first attempt of stepping into the current century.
This is a picture of my Little guy with his grandpa. Little Louie is up for his next surgery on Feb. 23rd. He'll have the tendon released in his left elbow. The surgery is much more involved than his bilateral heel cord releases but he will HOPEFULLY gain a ton of ROM (Range of Motion) with this surgery. Remember to keep him in your prayers. And of course I'll keep everyone posted.

This week's milestone's:
  • Lil Louie, with daddy's help can now transition from his sitting position to laying down to be able to roll around the house. They began working on this Sat. Jan 14, 2006.
  • Today, Jan 20, 06 he took his first forward steps in his walker. He is really trying to be as mobile as he can.

We're trying to get him a Gait Trainer, which will help him learn how to walk. We submitted the paper work to insurance company about a week ago. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.
