Andy update (and Kimi update!)

First...Andy: He is still at Methodist Hospital Pediatric Rehab. His head swelling is practically GONE! He is having quite a bit of anxiety, so the doctor is addressing that. Eddie has gone back to work during the day and visits Andy in the evenings. This evening, they rode the PeopleMover back to Riley. They went up to the ICU where Andy was able to meet the nurses who took care of him. Also, Eddie said there was another child with the same head injury as Andy. She is just three days into this. Her Dad was very happy to meet Andy and to learn Andy's head injury was just 3 1/2 weeks ago! Eddie said it really gave the Dad a lot of hope for his daughter.

Next...Kimi: She is standing more and more, strengthening her legs! She can now "bump" her way down the stairs and ride a tricycle by herself! She helps dress herself and easily undresses herself. She is saying "Da-da" for Daddy and "I-uh-oo" for "I love you". Last Friday, she had EIGHT cavities filled under general anesthesia - not surprising, considering she laid on her back drinking bottles for almost four years. And she ate about 1/3 of an orange sherbet "push up" last week. On Monday, she has an appointment for an eye exam. So, we continue to make progress...

Here are two photos: one of Kimi on her trike and one of her standing by herself.
