exciting news :)

Its been a while, and wow, how things have changed.  Our little boy is a cruiser!!  He loves walking around on furniture, and even walking while pushing boxes!  He is doing soo well, that the physio therapists said they didnt have to schedule another appointment, and i dont really have to do my daily exercises with him anymore because he is doing so well!  Hopefully he will be walking soon.  Really hoping he will be walking before his 2nd birthday because Mike and I are expecting another baby - due on Lincoln's birthday!! But by the way things are going, i'm pretty sure he will be walking!  We have gone through the first set of genetic testing, and got the results back today - tested negative for down syndrome!!!  YAY!!  On another exciting note, I have decided to start recording on paper, all of the words that Lincoln understands, and when I was finished... i had completed a FULL page!  Its amazing how fast he is learning!  He still really only says dada and baba, hey you (or what sounds like hey you) and a few other things.  Speech therapy will start up again around December, and hopefully we can get a mama out of him ;)  We are also starting occupational therapy this month, so that will be interesting to find out where he is at there... I think he is doing pretty good, but we'll see!  Other than that, not too much else is new. He got a cold the other week, but it seems to have passed without a majour infection, so thats good! (colds or flus get us a little worked up because of the fact his body has a hard time fighting the virus).   We left Lincoln for the weekend for the first time this weekend while my brother got married.  I was nervous about leaving him as he has a tendency to not eat or drink for other people... but he has been doing so well lately, that his grandpa and nanny said he did great eating and playing and sleeping!  so... i think its time for a vacation!  lol.  Other than that, i dont think there is much else new.
Thanks for reading!

  1. As usual your updates are really touching and we rejoice with you and Mike on the wonderful job you are both doing with Lincoln. He can feel that he is deeply loved and with love one can accomplish anything. We are very excited also about your new pregnancy. Hope all goes well. Take care. Aunt Marg and Uncle Christian
