Classroom Campfire

Walker's teacher sent this to me on Friday.  
They were having a "camp out" and Walker insisted on tending the fire.




...and here's one more!

The First of March

This week, I finally pulled out the scissors and gave Walker and Charlie each a hair cut.  Nothing spectacular - just a nice crop so that I can see their pretty faces.  Here are some photos of the boys playing at the park this afternoon:




























Rocket to the Moon

Miss Laurie, Walker's preschool teacher, snapped this photo last week of Walker and his friend Alex pretending to be astronauts.  Here they are in their homemade rocket ship!

Charlie's Chair

Here's a shot that Alison Power took last week while we were visiting their home.  Their daughters, Evelyn and Eleanor, both took turns wheeling Charlie around the house.  He loved every minute of it!



Constriction Therapy

Charlie has been trying out some constriction therapy this past week.  His OT tapes his strong fingers down and leaves only his weak pointer and thumb fingers free.  This is helping Charlie to learn that all important pincer grasp.  So far its working pretty well.  Here he is removing a peg from a foam board with his fingers.






Look at that concentration!

Pa John has Come and Gone

My Dad's trip to Dallas is over a bit early. He and Walker had some time together while Charlie and I flew to North Carolina to say goodbye to my Great Aunt Lois. We were hoping to have some more time with Pa John, but Los Angeles was calling all actors back to the barn.  Farewell and we'll see you again soon!
