Update continued...

Elli LOVES "Guitar Hero" and asks to play everytime she goes to Grandma's house. She is very good and doesn't mess with it until Wesley or Jackie get home - then they have to turn it on and play. I've tried...but if it's not ready, I can't even turn on the Wii. Here she is with Aunt Jackie. Now she has her own little guitar she can play with. Rock on, Elli! I went shopping at Pier 1 - look what I found! It was on sale. A pretty good price too. Apparently, she whined too much and climbed on the furniture. We are having a physical therapist come over every week to check out E's "bowed" legs. It's been a month, and she is progressing! We are trying to keep her from looking like she has been riding a horse all day when she walks. She has extra loose ligaments in her hips, knees, and ankles, so it gives the appearance of bowed legs. With therapy, we can tighten up her muscles to support her so that her ligaments don't continue to stretch as she grows....but can more or less grow into them. She's does great! And this is just a picture of a good little girl... More another time (yes there's more...it's been a long time since I've actually done this!)

It looks like you made a good purchase at Pier 1. I love how Elli will yell 'Jack.....Jack....Jack..Jack.Jack..JACK!!!!!!!!!!' until I come out of kitchen or wherever and play guitar hero.

I am glad PT is going well. Jake is getting OT for his "low tone." His entire upper body, waist up, including his face, has low muscle tone, which is causing him trouble with some motor skills. Ah, the fun of parenthood!
