Christina has been pushing everyone's buttons to check the limits. Pretty typical for a six year old, but not any fun for those getting pushed.

Christina enjoyed spring break and is glad to be back to school.

Speech at the university is going well. And swim therapy starts back up this week. The pool was down for maintenance so no swim therapy for a few weeks. I am sure Christina will be glad for that to start again.

Young Athletes has been fun. Christina has worked/played with a couple different volunteers. She gives them some grief, but I have caught her smiling on more than one occasion. When interrogated afterwards she admits to having a good time. I am unsure if it is the activities she enjoys or if making the volunteers work so hard is her true enjoyment.

The slideshow this week has some older shots along with pictures from speech, Young Athletes, and play time at home. And of course one of Christina and her Easter basket.

Hoppy Easter to all!

Christina had fun searching for her Easter basket and then of course munching on candy.

Easter weekend was good.

Had fun with Christina and I was productive around the house.

With another month gone it is time to check backups.

Christina has been showing her attitude lately. Gonna have to work on that.

Been sick and under the weather. Getting better slowly.

Christina has done well not getting sick. We have had lots of cuddle time and more mellow play. Sunday she even took a nap with me. What a treat.

Christina has been doing very well fighting off the colds, flu, and other ailments. Her teeth on the other hand have been quite uncomfortable. Christina has been busy with Young Athletes, lots of reading, and therapies. Christina was pleased to go for a wagon ride early Sunday morning and it was still dark so she could use her flashlight.

The latest doctor appointment went well overall. We also had Christina's AFOs adjusted. Christina was quite the trooper and did better than usual for her x-rays.

I have decided that those who design doorways and those who design furniture need to get together for a pint and go over some details. Then they can also have the architect join and get rid of or make larger the corners needed to go around.

To sum it up, the couch was heavy and just small enough to fit with some twisting through the door and then around the corner.

Thank you Sheri, Dylan, and Grace for stopping over. The brownies were good also. Thank you everyone for the phone calls, texts, etc with birthday wishes.

Christina lost another tooth yesterday. Now three in front are gone. Christina still has a cute smile.

So in my effort to look at pictures I have discovered that various OS do not use a natural sort. To some... 10, 11, 12... come before 2, 3, 4, 5... I think I may rename the pictures to compensate. The downside is there are a few days with over 100 pictures for that day. This would lead to renaming files using a three digit standard. Ex: 000, 001, 002 Hmm...

Christina has been very talkative. We are working on spelling. It made me very proud when I asked her to spell daddy and she did splendid with very pronounced "d"s and her "y" was good also.

With the coming of more snow Christina enjoyed some sledding time. This round we just went around the yard and up and down the sidewalk. There is a benefit to the ice still built up on the sidewalk and the neighbors not shoveling.

Another trip to see Taniguchi and Walker are coming up. We will also see John to have Christina's AFOs adjusted.

After supper on Thursday Christina and I sat down for my five minutes of sit time. I started the conversation with "I have a question for you." Christina became very excited so I decided to grab the camera to record the moment.

For a little history, Christina and I go for a wagon ride after supper every night. Regardless of weather and to add, Christina enjoys the darker evenings and cooler temps.
