superfriends

Lately we have tried to stress to Cole that Avery is special and he needs to protect and help her. Tonight while in character (like he is most nights!), he decided that Avery needed to be "supergirl". I think she had fun strutting the house in his P.J's!

meet the newest conehead!

We went today and got hooked up for a 24 hour ambulatory EEG with video. She has had some "spells" that I am assuming are from her holding her breath but better safe than sorry! We have had to re wrap her head 3 times---she keeps bumping her head and knocking the gauze off! Stinker :)

First day of preschool!

Its official---Avery is now a big girl! All the worrying and fretting for nothing. I got her out of her wheelchair and she was immediately befriend by a sweet little girl that was hugging her and rubbing her back :) She was smiling and didn't seem the least bit anxious. I will post later with an update when she gets home from school!

(Before School)

Typical Avery, fell asleep before we were even out of the neighborhood!

Attempt #1 on computer

The stand for Avery's computer FINALLY came yesterday. We set it up and had her calibrate her eyes this morning. I started with a very simple task...choosing which food item. I pressed the "I want" button a couple of times and she caught on immediately. She was pretty consistent with saying "I want" before making a choice. She got tired of it quickly but Rome wasn't built in a day and we will keep working!

************For the record, Avery was getting whatever she asked for it is just outside the view of the camera! I was not torturing her!

Tooth Fairy visit

Cole lost ANOTHER tooth this weekend. He is looking quite funny with his toothless grin! :)

Vacation

We are home from a long weekend at the beach. Cole spent the whole time in the pool---he doesn't like the sand. Avery has decided that the pool isn't so bad. We would keep her inside until the pool was shaded and she loved it.

A nice woman let Avery borrow her float. It was perfect because she was in the pool but wasn't contained in a baby float. As soon as I got home I got on the internet and found one to buy.
