March?!

Where has the time gone? I really can't believe it is the end of February already. CRA-ZAZY!!!! We are going to a Vegas night fundraiser for the PTO at Drew's school on Saturday. Drew is going to have a blast--his cousins are coming over to hang out. I see Rock Band in Drew's future!!!

We go on March 6th to have his plate removed from his hip surgery. It has been 6 months already! He won't need a cast or anything, just some rest and more rehab. Our next adventure is the Lokomat, a gait training device that uses robotic 'legs' and computer programming to pattern walking. It is at Children's/DMC rehab in Novi, and we will go 3x per week for 8 weeks. The sessions are an hour each. Hopefully, this will improve the brain/muscle connection and create pathways so the brain will communicate with his muscles and he will realize he has the capacity to walk. Then, it just a matter of balance, strength, coordination and putting all of that together on a regular basis! easy peasy. tee hee.
He loves to move, and is ecstatic when he is 'walking'. Challenger baseball starts soon...we are so excited!
We hope all is well...holla!

Catching up

I can't believe it's already almost the end of February! Time flies. We had winter break last friday, mon, tues and back to school on Wed. I kept Drew home today due to icky snot and coughing. We will see if he is better for school tomorrow.

As I write this....he is still crabbing in his bed, fighting sleep. UGH! We are looking forward to Spring...since I think snowmobiling may be done for the season. At least for us!!

Oh, and now for a new installment of 'is it just me, or...':

Is it just me, or is 'The Office' the freakin' funniest show on TV?!?!?

K, gotta check on my crabby-wonderful child...cold season sucks!!!
Terri, we love and miss you!!!!!

Thought for the Day

It isn't how you walk in life, but how you walk through life that matters.
