Getting into trouble.

The last several weeks have been wonderful.
Mid-August we went to my cousins Quincenera.
Sadly we had to leave early because it was over stimulating for both Liam and Adam.
The next morning we woke up to happy boy who was all over his crib.
We were surprised that out of no where Liam was rolling and exploring in his bed.
This, of course, was a milestone that we were anxious to see.
Our guess was that watching all the kids running around at the Quincenera pushed him to moving some.

First time on a swing by himself... sort of... with his sister. Loved it until Eliana said "Help, I am being squished!"

 Waking up to this is priceless. It's taken far too long but it only made it much more special.

 That smile. He knows he is going to be trouble now. Look out mom and dad.

Sitting for a picture. You can't see but dad was there to support him.

 

Set the bucket of toys next to him and he dumped it down. Sister joined.

 

Who knew nearly 3 years ago, when we bought it, this piano would be his favorite. We've had to change the batteries a few times.

He has been none stop ever since then.
He will roll to get to toys and other things like diaper bags and messing with them.

He sits for longer periods of time and enjoys it.
He is one satisfied boy. Satisfied with himself.

His therapists have are surprised and happy with his progress, I am sure not as much as we are though.
It's quite funny. For so long we have been waiting for something like this to happen and now we don't know if to be happy that he is getting into trouble or getting onto him for it. It definitely puts a smile on our face though.

About two months ago his Speech Therapist brought a box of dry beans. He could not be near it or else he would scream off the top of his lungs but now he digs into the box and makes a huge mess.

He also finally got his bath chair. Something that we desperately needed and we love it. He, not so much. We think it's the mesh. Now we wait for the standing frame and wheelchair.

Monday he had an appointment with Neurology. Just a "How is he doing? Here's a prescription refill." kind of appointment. He will see Ophthalmology in October and we will then determine when his eye surgery will take place.

Thank you for taking an interest in Liam's progression and hoping the best for him!
