Paul's Update - 01/31/07

Dear Friends:

Paul had a somewhat quiet day. He wasn't interested in doing his exercises but Dad was able to get him to sit at the side of the bed for a while. It isn't much exercise but it is good for balance and upper body strength. Dad also made him get himself back into bed whenever he was up. He has gotten a bit lazy since Dad & Dora usually pull his legs up onto the bed and position him so he doesn't HAVE to do any of the work. He had indicated that he wanted to try standing up with the walker but when Dad got it out Paul wasn't interested in doing that anymore. It seems he isn't feeling real good this week. That could account for his disinterest in working out. Max was a bit fussy this evening. Dad thinks he may be getting yet another tooth!! He rubs his gums on his bottle and your fingers if you leg him ... which isn't a good idea since he now has enough teeth to BITE you!! Dad left early this evening since we had Bible Study so I'm not sure if Tabby worked with Paul and how that went. She is pretty diligent so I'm sure they worked on some speaking skills. He has been doing so well with his words! I just know one of these days he will tell us all the things he's been thinking about!!

Have a great day, Lynne & Carl
