Getting stronger...

Dear Nicky,

Well, you still don't have any teeth yet, but the rest of you seems to be coming along pretty well. You can stand with some help balancing. You're getting bigger, which has become very obvious since your heart surgery. You respond to peekaboo games, and can find things hidden under cloths and stuff. You look like you're getting ready to crawl, but you're still a little uncoordinated. You are starting to try to get your knees under you, though, and it's getting easier to move you into a four-point position on the floor or on the bed. I think your protective reflex are coming along, too. The other day on the therapy ball I saw you clearly put your hand in back of you a numbwer of times. And you babble, and get angry at us when we can't read your mind.

Love,
Dad
