Fun Stuff and a Diagnosis

Robbie has learned to raise his hands and go "ta-da!" Though it often is ah-da. He learned this by copying Ms Kris, his PT :)

Another new thing in his repertoire of skills is blowing kisses. This doesn't quite look like blowing kisses but it is what he is trying to copy. Usually his finger ends up in his mouth and he ends up blowing spit :)

The most amazing new thing is crawling!!! Yay!!! So far it looks mechanical and a bit funny but it is becoming smoother and better by the day. I'm so full of happiness I get choked up every time I think of it.

Robbie's neurologist has given us a diagnosis. It is not final because we haven't had the genetic test done. He has been diagnosed with hypotonia and aspiration. From everything we've found through his testing so far the hypotonia should be the benign kind that simply is and is not progressive. There is no treatment but various therapies help them catch up and work out any issues it causes. Please keep this in your prayers as we look to the genetic test next.
