During PT on Thursday morning John did AWESOME with his sitting. We placed his toys on a tray in front of him and he was able to play with them while sitting all by himself (for a few seconds.)
I also expressed my concerns about his weak ankles and maybe getting some leg/ankle braces for him. His PT mentioned some sort of shoe that will keep his feet pointing out opposed to rolling in..........similar to putting your child's shoes on the wrong foot. She thinks that this might be all he needs. So, we are going to try them out.
On Friday, John played with bubbles during OT and absolutely loved it.....as you can tell by the picture:)
After OT we headed to ST where he did wonderfully.........for the first time, he closed his lips around a water bottle and took a sip:)
We then came back home to take a nap........which was not successful so around 2:00pm we left the house for our first play date with the twins, Kaden and Krysten!!!
The twins were so affectionate with John.........they would touch his face and give him kisses on the lips.......too cute!!! At one point, Krysten came over and held John's hand!
Thanks Angela for having us over!!!
We were exhausted after our busy day on Friday...........so exhausted that John went to bed at 5:30pm and didn't wake up until 6:30am the next morning.
Anyhow, he was very excited Saturday morning when he woke up because he got to play with his new toy that Daddy bought him:)
Thanks Mom and Dad! Now, do you really have to leave for Washington next week..............for the REST of the summer. What are we going to do without you?
John and his Hummer!
After playing all day with Dad on Saturday, Grams and Grandpa picked John up for a sleepover so Mommy could have a girls night out with Michelle and Daddy could go to the baseball game.

John and Grandpa being silly.......AND, having tons of fun!
We ended our weekend with a day at the ballpark and John's first D-backs game in a suite! I think he enjoyed it as much as we did:)

My 2 favorite boys!
So, needless to say we had a GREAT weekend and look forward to a GREAT week!
John had a blast crawling all over the floor and the chairs. Yes, you heard that right, I let him crawl on the floor at the baseball game (only in the suite.) Of course he went right into the tub the minute we got home:)
So, needless to say we had a GREAT weekend and look forward to a GREAT week!

What wonderful progress John is making. It is so great that you share his updates with all of us so that we can see what a miracle he is. Keep up the good work John!
Hope your enjoying your summer off! :) Jeannine
Now that Grams and Grandpa are leaving, Grammy will have to make some time to get over there. I am so excited by the news in the blog today. We are so fortunate.....

John, you are too cute to be legal! I am so proud of your progress, and can't wait to hear more in the coming weeks and months.
