Pictures

These are pictures of Kylee visiting her classroom for the first time and of her first day of school

School

Kylee LOVES school. She is having so much fun. When she comes home she is so bright eyed and acts like she just wants to tell me every little thing about her day. Her arms are waving around and her legs are just a going. She has totally blown me out of the water at how well she is doing. We are taking another step this week. The bus. Her normal pick up is suppose to be 6:55 am...right...like she is going to ride on the bus for an hour. The kids all get dropped off at 8:00 so the bus is going to come back and pick her up. That way the other kids will be all ready by the time she gets there (they toilet them, go over there paperwork..each morning the parent has to fill out about the night before, what they ate, what number we can be reached at). She is then going to ride the bus home with the other early childhood kids but that is just a 25 minute ride. Her nurse will also be riding the bus with her. She will be transported right in her wheelchair so we have gotten some portable ramps so we can get her all ready in the house and then just wheel her down the steps to the bus. So I will be out there tomorrow taking pictures and sending the camera with the nurse for pictures on the bus. We have also been sending a throw away camera to school in her backpack and the nurses have been taking pictures of her doing different things at school. I can't wait to see them.

This week at school is also theme week. Tomorrow they have to dress as crayons and she is the pink crayon. Tuesday is twin day so her and her nurse will be dressing like twins. Thursday is superhero day so her and her nurse are going to dress up but not sure as what yet and Friday is school spirit day so they have to dress in Bulldog gear. Should be lots of fun and I will take pictures each day to post.

Sitting

Sitting is something we have been working on forever but she is doing so good with it. She can sit for a while by herself and then when she gets tired she just needs a little support at her low back. She is also starting to catch herself when she starts to fall which is huge. She has caught herself several times while sitting and once while we were standing next to the sofa. Small steps for some but huge steps for us.

Beau

Please keep our friend Beau in your thoughts and prayers. He has not been feeling well lately and him and his family are having a hard time. He has a great mom and I know they will pull thru this. One step at a time :)
