Jackson has a new found love for people and faces. He is interacting with everyone in therapy. He really likes watching the other kids (all in their business) and even "flirts" with his therapists. His reward at the end of each session is that he can "snuggle" with them. That is his favorite part!
Jack is even showing new emotions with his face and gestures. He pouted for the 1st time. (i know that is weird to most, but if he was unhappy before he would just cry). This time...the PT was making him do a side sitting position for a really long time and he stuck his bottom lip way out and he had the BIGGEST puppy dog eyes. He just kept getting sadder and sadder with his chin down, until she gave in. It was pretty funny!
All this work seems to be helping him sleep through the night so much better....I am sure no seizures has much to do with it too! The last time he slept through the night was December 2007. It has been awhile, but we are almost there!

Amazing things happening there and we couldn't be happier. Praise be to God, the great healer!!
He is looking great and it seems your story is going to have a happy ending
He looks so good- like a little man! It is great that he is getting this therapy and making great progress! Can't wait to see him soon!
Love

How cute!
I guess you are finally getting sleep too...poor thing.
I hope he realizes just how many people's spirits he is lifting. This has been an unbelievable journey and I know he couldn't have done it with the help of his immediate and extended family.
Great stuff! He is truly the miracle baby. We need to get him a little McCain' 08 shirt and maybe some of that good luck will rub off!

Babe,
I think it's time for a new shirt?
He wore that one 2 blogs ago.
Tell my son I love him and miss him. I miss you too!
Love, Tony
Tony is so funny!! Worried about Jackson's fashion sense! I think he looks awesome! I was completely shocked, I thought he was sitting on his own in the pics! Talk about progress! I do hope he benefits from the intensive therapy (and that you don't go crazy there by yourself). We can't wait to see you both when you come back to Houston! Sorry we missed you today, give us a call tomorrow!
