Well I got to see Terri, she was my OT while I was in the hospital. She made me do lots of work. I also had PT early this morning at 8 am with my teacher. So I was running all day and had two therapy appointments in one day. The doctor thinks that I am doing very well with all that is stacked up against me.  THe OT evaluation says that I am physically about a two month old and that my social skills are about 4-5 months. It was kind of hard for mommy and daddy to hear that. But we are doing fine, my smile fixes everything. I am going to go for now. I'll keep you updated.

On Tuesday I got a gait trainer to try out until I get one for myself. It is neat, it helps me stand straight and I can even take steps. Although I am not ready to step yet I am just working on standing. That is hard work. They came and picked it up today, mommy and I were kind of sad to see it go. But we will be getting one soon I hope.

Great grandma came over today and we played. It was a pretty lazy day I did a lot of sleeping, I guess that I must be growing.

Daddy got a new job so he will be home with me even more I can't wait. It's doing computer type stuff. So that's all that is new. Its time for me to go to bed good night everyone.

Love Christina

Hey guess what everyone? I got my second tooth yesterday. It finally came threw so it feels much better.  My shots went pretty well no major side effects just a little tired. Mom went and got me a sippy cup I tried it yesterday. Its kind of tricky but I think that I'll get the hang of it. I also got my very own plate of mashed potatoes. I sure made a mess, it was fun. I threw my plate at grandma Kar and scared everyone. Grandma gave it back ti me.  Mom got me a cool giraffe toy that balls go around and around then I have to find where they went. 
Saturday mom, dad and I went to great grandmas for a while to hang out. I was tired and fell asleep. I also had French toast for breakfast. It was yummy.  New pictures of all my first will follow soon.
Love Christina

 Here are some pictures of me at my birthday party. Also some cute ones of me too. Mom got them to the computer for me.
My second tooth is giving me problems so I am a little crabby. I hope that it  comes thru soon. I also have my year check up tomorrow and that means shots. I hope that I don;t get a fever from them. Mom told me that we will go see Dr Longbella and his nurse Nancy while we are at the clinic.
So here are the pictures.............

Today mommy had PT add a school teacher. So I work even harder on Tuesdays. My teachers name is Tammy, she is nice and has new toys for me to play with. We work on language and signing along with my vision.

This weekend I went swimming in my new pool. Mom, Dad and Grandma Kar were there. Mom even got in with me. Mom took me swimming again on Monday. It's pretty fun.

Sunday we had lots of company Great grandma and grandpa came over along with grandma Kar. We all hung out.

Mom will put pictures up later today so I can get them on to the computer.

Bye bye everyone.

My birthday party was on Sunday.  It was a lot of fun. I was real tired from staying up all night the night before - I guess that I was excited for the party. I slept thru half of my party. We had lots and lots of food. The party was at aunt Sheri's and uncle Dan. Thanks guys. Thank you everyone who showed up to celebrate my one year birthday. So with all the commotion on Sunday I am real worn out today, so we all just took it easy. Daddy took off to recoup with me. I will post pictures soon. 

 Night night.

Mom and Dad took me swimming today. We went to the Fairfax pool first but it was closed to the public this weekend for swim meets. So we all went to Riverview and we all went swimming. It was pretty fun. Then grandma Kar came over and we had pizza or dinner well I had sweet potatoes. My tooth is growing and I like to chew on stuff.
Oh ya mom bought me a storage thing for all my toys. Now I can find them all. Tomorrow I go take my pictures again because I did not cooperate so well on Sat with mom and dad, but the pictures with dad turned out well.
Good night every one.
Ooooh I forgot I get to see aunt Carmen on Wed. Just thought I'd tell everyone.

Guess what everyone??  ............  I got my first tooth today. Its my bottom right one.  Today mommy and I went for our walk and when we got home I got to hang out with grandma Patty for awhile. Then mommy and I went and got my dress for pictures this Saturday. Of course I got more than just a dress- I got two shirts and some shorts they are cute. The other day mom also picked up a rocking cat its just like a rocking horse but it is a cat and it is just my size. It meows and sings too.

Well that all folks. Gotta go play with daddy, and of course try out my new tooth.
Love

Hi everyone today was my daddy's first Fathers Day. We just hung out Grandpa and Nancy came over and Uncle James and Aunt Robyn stopped by too. I wasn't too social because I had a busy week and my teeth were hurting.
Yesterday mommy,daddy, and I went to Sams Club and then to Chris's for dinner. I met his two dogs. Amber and Mark was there too. I was way tired, we got home late for me.

The Vision specialist (Tricia) was over on Wednesday and left lots of really cool toys and gave mommy ideas on how to help my sight get better.  So mommy got me an Einstein video that has classical music and lots of stuff to look at and its pretty interesting.

Mommy so makes me work really hard during the week. I just love playful times with daddy on the weekend.
Well I am going to finish hanging out with daddy before bed time. 

Mommy is also going to make an appointment to have my 1 year pictures done with daddy next weekend.
Bye bye.

I have the best daddy in the whole wide world. I love him so much. Lots of Hugs and Kisses.XOXOXOXOXOXOX
