No news is good news

Things still the same around here. Dawson is trucking right along with no seizures. We have been 221 days with no seizures and yes we count each one, and thank God for each and every minute of each and every one of those days. I guess the biggest change over the last few days would be his language skills. They seem to be blossoming right now. His newest words he is trying to say are " thank you", "welcome", and " juice ". He is also mimicking a lot of different sounds that we and his sisters make at him.

He enjoys playing with all of his toys as well as anybody elses he can get his hands on. He will spend some time in the play room playing and then walk his little self in here with us and play for a while. He is always in the best mood unless he is hungry or sleepy. And speaking of sleepy, he has been sleeping better the past few weeks at night as well.

The other night he was really cracking us up. He had found a balloon and brought it in here with us and was trying to pop it by sitting and bouncing up and down on it. Of course about every third bounce the balloon would slip away and Kerplop! right on his bottom. It was a fun game to him and he really had us laughing for a while. There is just no telling what he is going to do next.

So that's what we've been up to the last few days. Lots of smiling, laughing, playing, pulling sisters hair every chance he gets, chasing Madison all over the house and now that we've mastered walking........ He is trying to run..

We are in just pure bliss right now watching him grow and do all these new things.

Thank you for sharing in our joy

We love you all

Jeff and Allison
