We have seen Stas improve in just the last 10 days. We rub him, tickle him, squeeze his cheeks, make him work to sit up in the stroller or on our laps. What a difference it makes. He is still a little squishy pile of love, though. He should be easy on the train and plane because he can't get away from us. He loves to just cuddle in as you can see in many of our pictures. We will have to separate Ricky and Stas though I think b/c Ricky still has a good streak of jealousy.
Gretchen, I just love your pictures. Praying all goes well and you guys can get home soon. Also for Ricky to not feel quite so jealous. I am sure that is completely normal though!!

ReplyDeleteMaria-
ReplyDeleteWhen you hold her hands she steps one foot in front of the other. She certainly will benefit from therapy, though! She walks a little more on her tiptoes. I don't think, because of the high needs of the rest of the group, that she has the opportunity to walk.
