New Year, New Skills, New Discoveries

Connie continues to progress. Here's proof! He's bouncing in the exersaucer, especially when he watches his sisters jump on the trampoline. He discovered his first balloon yesterday and watching him play with such joy and wonder was amazing. We also learned that he does not like the sound of a drill. Greg has been building shelves downstairs to house all of these new toys that have accrued since Christmas and Connie is not a fan of the loud noises. I told Greg he probably has memories of the OR when they opened his chest. He has never been so averse to a noise before, be he seems genuinely scared! Anyway, here's the new video.

Erin,

Happy New Year, can't believe it's 2008 already! The video was awesome, Connie is doing so well! It's great too see his achievements, thanks for sharing. His expressions are priceless, what a Blessing, it's certainly heartwarming to see.

Thanks for the Christmas card, the kids are too cute. I don't know how you find the time to do it all, including your great Christmas phone call :) I hope you found peace and comfort in the season. May the Blessings of God remain with you throughout 2008.

Love, Caryn
