In case you've missed that past 5 months- and no doubt you have, no fault of your own- here's a brief re-cap:
|
The "Easter Bunny," (aka PawPaw) gave us a bunny... without prior parental permission... because we "always say no." So, there's that... |
|
Dominic loves his baby bubba Kolbe |
|
But Kolbe sometimes tortures Dominic... and does mean brother things like pull his trach out... cause we like to live life on the edge. Sigh. |
|
Kolbe wore his first pair of shooting ear muffs (I sound like such a girl right now- I don't know what the stupid things are called) to watch daddy do a SWAT competition. |
|
...And Daddy is kind of a stud... |
|
...Cause he shoots stuff and climbs high things... |
|
...and then flips over them like it's nobody's business. |
|
Dominic had a power wheelchair trial where he got to try out using a power chair for the first time! |
|
I had to help him find the joystick, but once I did... |
|
He was a holy terror. You can't see his face right now, but you can see his huge cheeks in an all-out smile, getting to control where he goes. He turned himself in circles and was able to drive straight several times. |
|
So, next time you come to our house, we may or may not have drywall... it's over-rated any how. |
|
Dominic is getting Kolbe back for pulling his trach out. "Take that Bubba!" |
|
Dominic has been working so hard in therapy. Here he's working on standing with the best PT in the whole world and his sweet Nurse Krystyn. Clearly, he's revolting- look at him screaming at them! |
|
And Kolbe is getting huge- how does that happen! This is him trying food for the first time. he hated it. |
|
Dominic is kneeling in therapy and jamming to old country- his favorite singer is Johnny Cash, thank you very much. |
|
He's got such a sweetness about him and he works so hard in therapy and school, he smiles even with the really hard things, except for standing. He screams with standing. |
|
Finally he gets to sit down- look at the relief and happiness on this boys face! |
|
And this happened- cuteness |
|
Best friends. Dominic will reach for Kolbe and if Kolbe gets a hold of Dominic, he will 1.) try to eat him or 2.) pull his hair or trach |
|
But sweet Dominic always forgives him :) |
So, there's the briefest five month re-cap ever. I've missed all of you and I know you have missed sweet Dom, so I'll be back real soon. :)
