I hope this update find you all happy and well. I cant believe the Holidays are right around the corner....YIKES! I feel like every year they come faster and faster!
We are still as busy as ever. Just recently we dropped back down to physical therapy 1x/ week. We also have infant development that comes in the home 1x/week and also speech therapy 1x/week which is 45 minutes away. So pretty much the theme of my life is run, run, run... but I'm so thankful that I am the one that gets to do the running with him. Just this past week we received a new pair of SMO/AFO braces. This is a completely different system then we have ever had before, and so far its a complete flop. We will see how it goes later in the week, because we are having the SMO remade. Oh the joys of new braces. We go through this same headache every 6 month of so because of his feet growing. 
We have also started speech therapy. Westin has a very nice vocabulary, however because he had large tonsils there are some movements that his tongue doesn't do voluntarily like it should. Like touching his tongue to the roof of his mouth or being able to wiggle it from side to side. His top lip is also "tied down" as they call it so in the future that may need to be snipped. My hope is that after a few weeks we will be able to go down to going every other week. I don't want to be driving 45 miles one way for therapy when its -20 degrees outside, because we all know that's just around the corner.
Otherwise we continue to fight through this cold weather and hope that summer will be here before we know it! The first day of summer is only 194 days away... but whos counting!
Stay warm and have a very Merry Christmas!
