Whitest Dancer Ever

Andrew loves to "dance" whenever a song/music is playing on the TV. Here's a glimpse of Andrew so-called dancing this morning. I wasn't able to get all of his signature moves, but you can see his wide stance and turns. He has some favorite commercials and cartoons that really get him going - I'll have to try and capture some more footage...he's hysterical :)

Hanging Out

Just some cute pics of our Baby Nathan or "B" as Andrew likes to say...


All smiles in his Penn State shirt from Aunt Laura :)


Sitting in his chair playing with his vibrating alligator - one of Nathan's favorite toys.


Playing with his toes...check out that hair!?!? Nathan's hair sticks straight up all of the time. We are going to finally even out his locks at his first birthday :)

Waking Up Your Senses

Andrew and I enjoyed another play session up at Parkway's Early Childhood center learning to use all of our senses. They had lots of creative activities for Andrew to see, hear, touch, smell and taste. Here are a couple of pics I was able to get while Andrew was running from table to table :)


Andrew getting ready to shovel snow.


Scooping up snow balls.


Touching many different textures.


Shaking the bottles to hear what noise they made.
I think Andrew particularly liked the tasting session - graham crackers (sweet), saltines (salty) and lemonade (sour). He was also intrigued with the smelling activity although he was trying to taste it all too :)

Eleven Months Old!!

Time is just flying by way too fast!! Nathan is eleven months old today and is as happy as ever :) We had some down time over the holidays away from therapy and Nathan picked it right back up this year with no set-backs!! He is working so hard and we are excited to see him continuing to get stronger to handle more positioning. We have more follow-up visits with some of Nathan's doctors in the upcoming months and are hoping for good reports. We are looking forward to a much HEALTHIER 2010!!


Smiling for Mommy.


Belly laughing while Daddy is tickling him.


Picture Perfect :)

Some fun pics from the week

Andrew and Nathan have been troopers staying indoors so much through this winter season. We have been trying to stay busy and keep the boys entertained :)


Andrew helping Mommy vacuum the family room.


Nathan sitting up in his bumbo playing his gears with his PT :) We are so excited that he is tolerating sitting up for brief periods of time - he is slowly but surely making progress!!


Steve happened to catch Nathan making funny faces one evening before bedtime. Not quite sure if he is trying to pucker up for some kisses or making a fish face :)


Andrew and Nathan giggling with each other :)

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year!! We are excited to finally be finished with 2009...what a year!! We wish everyone the very best for 2010 and much health, happiness and laughter :)

If you didn't notice, I didn't upload any pictures from the last couple of weeks of December - including Nathan's first Christmas. This was not by choice, but because I accidentally deleted the pictures from our digital camera while trying to save them to our laptop. I am still sick to my stomach over this...it's ALWAYS something :(
