My first post!

Hello everyone! Right now my best bud Deb is jumping up and down because I did it! I am writing a blog! So as a newbie to this, I am sure there are many things that I should do that I don't know how so you guys who do this on a professional basis will have to let me know :).

I decided to start a blog for all my friends and family to check out as a way of knowing what is going on with us and more specifically Bubbas. Along the way I will definitely put my insights into things in as well. Sometimes it is hard for me to repeat many times what is going on or is new with Bubbas and my good friend Jenn gave me this suggestion and I am running with it, thanks Jenn!

So today I am pretty excited because Jenn and I went in on a very exciting scrapbooking machine together. It is what Meghann and I call a "professional scrapbookers" machine :). Let me see if I can get a picture of this thing for you to see... Okay, so it went to the top and I wanted it here, but I will work on perfecting that later. It will do so many cool things (for all of you non crafty people this probably seems a little crazy, but I assure you for us crafty ones it is way cool)! It will cut letters, pictures and things all out of any paper you put in it. We are pretty excited about it, thanks for sharing it with me, Jenn!

Bubbas had his marathon therapy day today. PT, speech and infant specialist. He is making many new breakthroughs. Today Darsie (PT) put on an abdominal brace for him to try to help him sit up on his own. He is almost there, but his abdominal muscles don't kick in which makes it very hard for him to sit on his own. Well, it was pretty amazing what happened. She put him on his side with his arms on the ground. After only a little help, with the abdominal helper on, he moved his arms and body to come to a sit! It was so amazing we both got teary eyed over it. I am sad though, because I found out today that my wonderful PT, and friend Darsie is going to be leaving CTC which means that Bubbas is going to have a new PT. Although I know they are all wonderful over there, Darsie has such a special place in my heart. She worked with Bear and also with Bubbas since he was 1 month old. We will really miss seeing her twice a week. She does great work and is wonderful to work with.

Hope you all had a great St. Patrick's Day. We had a fun one here. Monday's are the day where my mom takes Bear for the day. She was decked out in all green with her pom pom monster necklace. I will post a picture of this thing once I find my camera! They went to a St. Patrick's Day party complete with singing. Sounded like a lot of fun. Bubbas was decked out in a very cute green shirt and all the therapists commented on how handsome he looked in his jeans. (He is usually in sweatpants) For dinner we had green themed eats. Green enchiladas, guacamole and chips, asparagus and green milk. Lots of fun. Bear ate one bite of it all and Bubbas proceeded to eat 1 whole enchilada!

Toodles!
