Too Busy To Blog!!

It has been a crazy and wonderful few weeks! Noah is doing more program, more consistently than he has in years. Most days he has the energy for it, which is wonderful, and he is going for it full tilt!
 Noah at the starting line -- Isaiah chewing on the timer


Today Noah crawled fifty-nine minutes and totaled 129.5 feet. A week or so ago he crawled 160 feet in 80 minutes! We did 41 masks, 19 inhalations, and five vertical ladders. We did TENS with transdermal magnesium on his hamstrings and adductors.  Noah read sentences about five different topics, did dot math, studied ancient history and did some math problem solving (on which he was 100 percent correct!).

Holding on! This is the vertical ladder (I know! It's really horizontal -- 
but the hope is to eventually be vertical). 
This is hard for Noah, but he is doing great!!

Tomorrow we are going to add the TEAS program (where he listens to music with noxious background noise so his brain can learn to block it out), and we hope to keep that as consistent as we have the crawling!

Soon I hope to start gathering volunteers to do patterning, and I hope to increase his crawling to a consistent two hours per day. Woohoo!! I am so excited about what this means for Noah. I am looking forward to a year of great improvement!

Tomorrow I plan to post some pictures of Noah's field trip to Yahoo Farm, and soon I will post explaining about the new phase we are starting in Noah's program.

If we could just get all these specialist visits out of the way -- my least favorite part of moving to a new area!! Is it just me, or am I using a particularly large amount of exclamation points?!!
