Oh where does the time go!

As usual Westin has been keeping us busy!  He has made some GREAT progress this week with his gross motor skills.  He has 4 point crawled a few times.  The first time I saw it I thought I was imagining things!  He has also pulled to stand on his own a few times.... These are such huge accomplishments, we couldn't be more proud of him!  He is one determined little boy.  He has alot started to babble a lot more, and I have even heard MaMa a few times!! he also says DaDa, Dad, Daddy and Hi Daddy... there is something very wrong with this picture! He also loves getting into things, like the dogs food and water dishes.

He is still going to PT 2x/ week, and meeting with Marcy from Early Intervention 1x/week.  Its a lot of running but it is so worth it when we look at how far he has come.  Westin has also been approved to go to the Kennedy Krieger Institute out in Baltimore.  He will participate in there 2 week physical therapy program for spinal cord injury.  We wont go until April 8th.  I decided to wait until he's a little older as I think he will get more benefit out of it.  The program is 3 hours of PT/Day.  They also work a lot with E-Stim therapy so I'm excited to try something new!!

We are headed back to Minneapolis next week for more tests.  He will have a sedated MRI as well as another renal ultrasound, and RNC.  We will also meet with a few of Westins Drs to go over the test results.  So say a prayer for more good news!

Here are some new pictures!!
