Good bye to our beautiful Erika! (read below)

Ryder is doing great! He starts a new physical therapist tomorrow, at home! yay! Thanks to Coree Adams, thanks Coree!
He is very active still. He played with his dev. specialist today. He rolled over for her...and played with toys. He loves to suck on toys now, you have to hold them to his mouth though. He's making noises all the time! He's learning his voice. It's really cute. He smiles ALL the time! and no it's not gas, it's Ryder! he's a happy boy.
He's showing possible early signs of CP...with his left arm and both hands. It's still to early to tell....but that's what therapy's for. The therapy helps it not be so serious in the long run...so we shall see.
We were so sad, because today we said goodbye to our lil' doggy girl, Erika! our bullies gone! We decided that Ryder was our # 1! and that Erika needed so much attention to, so it wasn't fair to her to keep her. So we gave her to an amazing rescue. She will be missed, but someday we'll let Ryder pick out his own doggy!

I will cross my fingers for you about the CP. Kadence is affected on her right side, mostly in her hand but does have some tightness in her foot as well but that doesnt show much. I never really noticed until we visited Dr. Manwaring and Katie was working with her that she does have weakness in her left hand as well. She can use it fine but it is not super strong. Therapy helps a TON!!! Call me sometime! =)
