Therapy Update


Camden had a great PT session yesterday. We didn't get pics of it, but I put a pic of the kind of walker he's graduating up to. Most of you are familiar with his "Pony Walker". But the walker pictured is a step up, and blends all the areas Lisa has been working on: stabilizing while standing + "one, two" stepping. A first: He took a few steps without any human assistance, just relying on the walker! It took much pep-talking, though. Camden lately is fussy and whiny--it's obviously hard work and he doesn't want to do it, I don't blame him! But we're trying to correct that behavior when it happens.
His speech therapist says he is more verbal now, experimenting with more sounds.
And we're starting to work on his communication board, which will allow him to point to his choice of 2 items at a time to communicate what he wants.
(Look in the smaller picture...Camden backs into this walker and his arms are strapped down w/ velcro for support).

Bad Hair Day




Okay, everyone is allowed a bad hair day now and then, but Camden was cracking me up with his wild after-bath hair. I just had to get some shots of it. :)

Welcome Baby Wil!!

Okay, I was already walking on a cloud with the birth of my brand new nephew Wyatt. Then I get another sweet baby nephew! I was blessed enough to have been there for the birth of Jackson Wilson, who weighed in at 7 lbs. 2 oz. Betsy was admitted to the hospital around 7:30 Friday night, already far into labor. After getting her epidural, it wasn't long before she was 9 cm and ready to push. At 12:05 Sat. Wil was born and it was an incredible experience to witness! I couldn't have been more proud of Betsy for giving it her all (and having a great sense of humor!) and for Jason who was the ultimate encourager and supporter. And where do I start about how cute Wil is??? The pics are the only way to show you, but they really don't begin to capture his good looks!
Two adorable nephews in one week. (Sigh) Man, am I lucky or what?

Welcome Baby Wyatt!!



I've got a nephew!! My brother Bill is now a Daddy to sweet little Wyatt Cash Kimble. He was born on April 2nd, weighing in at 7 lbs. 8 oz. He was a true surprise...Becca and Bill did not know the sex. They thought they were having a girl. Oh boy, did he throw them a curveball!
Since the new happy family lives all the way out there in Wyoming, I will have to wait until this summer to meet the little guy. But here are some pics of him:
