Look at this Kid!


Sorry I haven't posted in a while. We've been so busy and Paul and I just had vacation last week. We went to Vegas and saw his brother get married. Pj has started something new these last couple weeks. He'll grab a pillow and throw it down and then throw himself down on top of it. His shoulders are really starting to loosen up. A year ago this would have been very uncomfortable. And he'll just lay there and watch TV. (For about 5 seconds! LOL. He's a very active kiddo!) I just couldn't resist these pics. It looks so great to see him at rest with his arms like that. Now if we could only get those elbows going a little bit. But we haven't been able to wear the Beniks at night because he velcro's himself to the floor. And we haven't had an elbow splint that fits in at least 6 months. We do have a new appointment at Hanger Orthotics on May9th and they are going to try and fit him for a good dynamic elbow splint for night wear and I'm really excited about it. I think they are going to encorporate wrist into it too to anchor it. And we have a visit to Shriner's coming up May 22nd so expect more posts real soon.

Meeting Lil Louie

I'm sure there is alot of stuff I should be catching up on since the end of March, but I have something much more important to talk about.

Last night at the Olive Garden we met Rosalinda, Louie, Isabella, Thalia, and Lil Louie! It was awesome! Pj started talking to Louie right away. It took Louie a minute to warm up to Pj, but once he did it was great. They looked eachother up and down and Pj was just running his mouth. Louie was too cute. He's got 2 dimples on each cheek. He has a smile that warms your heart. Pj was his usual bad resturant self. He's been on a resturant ban for almost a month and a half now. We had to bring the whole bag of tricks. We got to eat and talk for a little bit, but then Pj's timer ran out. I blocked Pj in under the table on the side me and him and Louie were in and let him run around. Rosalinda let Louie out too! They had fun. Paul that it was so cool Louie kept picking up one of Pj's toys with his feet and handing it to him. Pj had fun playing with Louie, but he seemed to be more interested in Isabella (11 yrs old) LOL. She played and hollered with him. He even broke out of his pen a couple times. :) I got to hold Louie a couple times. He was soo sweet and so cute. He looked so good to. He had just had an elbow release about 2 or 3 wks ago. When he was playing with Playdoh his elbow was good enough that he could have gotten it to his mouth (if R had let him!) It looked AWESOME!!! I was so excited to meet them and for the kiddos to meet. I really enjoyed it. I was afraid we wouldn't have that much to talk about but I think we all really clicked. I know Pj enjoyed it b/c when we got home he said "Have fun.... Want baby..." He wanted Louie back! Hopefully we can all do it again!
