It's been a busy 9 weeks! With that being said, I'll give you some Brooke updates...

She is trying to stand. She wants to stand so badly. We are in the process of getting her a gait trainer to assist in learning to walk. It's called the KidWalk. Here is a link to a video showing a few kids in it. I'm really excited to have it. I don't know where we can put it with all of the other kid stuff we have in the house these days. Between the two girls, we are up to our eyeballs in swings, standers, chairs, and toys. Now...the doctors aren't saying she's going to walk or anything. Dr. Sherr told us that he thinks she'll stand - but walking...we'll see. We remain hopefull and completely open minded.

She continues to work so hard in all of her therapies. She especially loves water. She's got some new cool Dora shades that she thinks look quite amazing on her. She makes sure to let you know that.

Brooke has a few words now...Bubble is one that pops up here and there. When she does say it, it is as clear as a bell and directly relates to gas production in her stomach. She says dada all of the time now. Lucky guy! She is also saying 'mo' for more. Again, not consistently, but clearly and deliberately when it comes. It seems like all her language comes and goes. Very interesting. We will have three days of 'mo' and 'bubble' and then the words dissapear for two weeks.
