Week #1 is done!

Well, week #1 is done and so much progress has been made. Jude can do so much more than he could do before and has so much more range of motion. Today he played with his new remote control monster truck and sword fought during therapy. It's really neat to watch although he is doing fun stuff it is 100% therapy. He made a monster jam obstacle course by squeezing out playdoh and pulling apart Legos to make this track. It took over 30 minutes of work for a 5 minute run with his new truck. Jackie does such a great job at working hard first then playing hard and it makes it fun for Jude. I've seen him trying to push his table across the room with a 20 lb bean bucket on top just to eat breakfast. And he has such a great personality that it works. He really doesn't mind the hard work because he just knows that's the deal. I think that is what will make him successful when he is older and has a choice with therapy.

After therapy we went back to the park to play with his new kite and monster truck. Jude flew a kite with his right hand only. I was so amazed! He was running all over this field and didn't drop the string once. He had a great time. Then we went to his favorite BBQ place. Last time we were in Alabama for Acquire therapy we spent the month finding the best BBQ place so we could bring the best sauce back for Uncle Pete. Full Moon BBQ took first place so we had to go back.



Tomorrow, our only day off until next week, we are going to the McWane Science center in Birmingham. We are going to watch the IMAX and check it out and I think we may even go to the Original Pancake House (sorry to make you drool Aunt Julie!) for breakfast. Fun times!

Wishing our cousin Eli a great baptism day tomorrow, wish we could be there but we are thinking of you! Have a great Sunday!
