Michael is doing really well. His infection is clearing up nicely but he will be on antibiotics for a little while longer. Looking forward to meeting the transplant coordinator. Ted and I are ready to see this through for him.

Of course  now that First Steps has come in and evaluated him for his speech he has been saying new words like crazy. The other night he just about broke my heart. He was in his crib hooked up to his cycler, looked at me with his beautiful eyes, held up the tubing and clear as a bell said "out". Knocked me for a loop, I almost cried I felt so bad for him being cooped up in there. I do keep a lot of toys in his crib and the rest of the family is so close he can see us. It does make it a little better seeing us and I do have a rocker next to his crib, I just pull it close and hold him. He loves it. He spends a lot of his time looking up at me babbling and touching my face. He is such a sweetie.

Finally figured out how to get my pictures off my cell onto my lap top. This picture may be a bit fuzzy but it's my favorite one. This was the first time he was able to get into this chair all  by himself so he was pretty pleased. And  then Sara had to get into the picture also. She is a bigger ham than he is. I have a hard time holding him down for a decent picture. He is just too busy to be bothered to pose. I just got lucky on these two.
