Hi all!  It's been a while since I posted to the list but guess what has
been taking up all my time?  Michael's walking!  He took his first step
about 2 months ago when he was working with the physical therapist.  It was
only one step but it was on his own.  Then, on the day before Mother's Day,
he took up to 7 steps on his own.  Ever since then, he's been taking more
steps all the time.  Michael was at my parents' house this past weekend and
I've noticed a real boost in his confidence.  He's walking all over the
place now.  I got those squeaker shoes for him and they're helping a lot.
However, they don't make any noise when he's crawling and he still does some
of that too so I still have a bell pinned to the back of his shirt with a
diaper pin.  He doesn't even touch it back there.  He is also saying daddy
now and he said Ma clear as a bell this morning.  He's a happy boy and is
constantly curious about the world around him.  That's all on the update for
now. There will be more to come, I'm sure.

Leslie
