Hola!
 Today was a great day. I woke up to the sun shining nicely on my bed. I had the sound of the waves and birds in the background. (okay my mom has a sound machine that makes the best wave sound. It is like you are almost there!) What a way to start my day. After my dad gave me breakfast I went back to sleep for a bit and then Daniella showed up at 10 and we went out to the platform. My mom told her to get me going on my stretching and she would meet us out there to help put on my new shoes and get me practicing walking!

Once Dainella started rubbing on me and massaging (she has great hands) I began to feel so comfortable that I fell fast asleep. When my mom showed up it was time for me to wake up! Hey it was only a 20 minute power nap! This walking and head lifting is hard work! I have to be rested! Soon I was geared up in my black scuba suit, my neck support collar, shin guards, ace bandages, and tennis shoes! I am ready!

First we started on the ball. I lay over my orange ball and work on my head lifting this as well lets me put pressure and weight on my feet. After 15 minutes of that, Daniella and mom get me ready for walking. Daniella supports my trunk and mom lifts my legs and feet one at a time and together we take steps! Today I did 45 steps. Dont think they are killing me! We only did 15 steps at a time and then I got a little break!

After that it was time for lunch! I put my new glasses on for a while! I really like them! I can see things so much better! It is awesome! After wearing my glasses for  a while mom got out the pirate patch and I practiced using my lazy eye for a while. 
Whew after lunch it is time for my siesta! 

I had a short nap today, so we went back out to the platform this afternoon for a little workout and I wore my glasses. I attempted to grab at a toy! Hopefully soon I will grab and hang on to it for awhile! I am getting hungry time for supper then off to bed!

Buenas Noches everyone! Wonder what tomorrow will bring for me?
