Updates...Finally

Potty Training: We've actually made progress! For about 2-3 weeks now, Davis has been successfully (and with minimal accidents) peeing on the potty! We still have to tell him to do it, otherwise he'll pee in his pull-ups, but we're getting there! Pooing is a whole different story, though. He almost never goes to the potty for that. Hopefully it'll all click with him soon.
School: Davis has adjusted well to his new, crazy schedule. He loves his class, teachers, and friends. They eat breakfast in the cafeteria every morning and lunch in the afternoons. The classroom is stuffed with fun things like a little kitchen, computers, dress-up clothes, books, crafts, ets. I feel like this year is going to be so beneficial in preparing him for kindergarten next year. I love picking him up in the afternoons and seeing all the snoozing 4 and 5 year olds sprawled out all over the classroom. Davis is always so out of it when I wake him up to go home. It's really cute.

Therapy: I thought suit therapy went pretty well this summer. I haven't seen tremendous changes in him, except that he's definitely stronger and has more balance. I'll definitely be going back to Orlando for Conductive Ed once Reese is about 6 months old.

Neurology: We've been seeing Davis' neurologist lately and revisiting the idea of maybe having the Rhizotomy procedure done. I'm still on the fence about it since it is so invasive, but the benefits are amazing and could really change the course of Davis' future. I'm not interested in the Botox or Baclofan because the results are temporary. There have also been discusions about a possible leg lengthening procedure. Nothing's definite and I'll keep everyone posted on what we decide.
