Day 7 at the gym, Dives 19 & 20

Dive #19
Good Morning!  Will was up again this morning (on his own), had some yogurt and even did a little coloring before heading out the door!  He was excited in the spaceship this morning.  It was a full ship too!  Mr. Chet, Miss Maria and Mr. Richard, Mr. John, Miss Sherrie and Mr. Kenny and Will and myself!  We watched Despicable Me.  John asked Will if he was sure he didn't want to watch Doc!  :)

Day 7
So, all that energy that Will had this morning is dwindling quickly!  I think an early snack is in the future!   Will starts off with his typical warm-up as well as a new little stretch...

who needs a therapist anyway!

Next on to the bolster...or off the bolster...


Poor guy, just really wants to be able to talk!  One day he'll be able to sit on that bolster without thinking so much about it!  
After he finished working on his balance sitting on the bolster, he got to practice his balance rolling it!

  

On to the stairs.  Will has made a huge amount of progress on these babies!  Now he just needs the confidence.  Notice Miss Tiffany has to be touching him in some way (even if it's on his cat ear!), but clearly he is doing the work by himself!


I haven't shown much of Will's scooter work.  He's scooting along nicely these days!  Notice on the scooter he doesn't watch where he's going either!  Yikes, we're going to have to work on that with everything!



Pushing the cart has come along way too, but he still has some work to do!



Another high 5 for Miss Tiffany!  I could watch this all day!



Now for something new.  Sometimes things just evolve into new exercises...



A little cane walking for you!  



I'm so proud of Will and how hard he works.  He pushes himself to the very last minute.  Miss Tiffany asked him if he was too tired to ride the bike today. His answer, No.  He found some energy and learned a new trick!  



Will worked so hard that he didn't even have time to eat lunch!  It's off to the spaceship with lunch in hand.  Good thing I brought some other options besides his normal cottage cheese!  

Dive# 20 (half way there!)
This afternoon, to satisfy John, Will picked Doc McStuffins.  John laughed and said, Thanks Will, I've been missing her!  Miss Sherrie and Mr, Kenny joined us again too.  They are really nice.  They have 2 grandchildren around Will's age and are familiar with all of Will's favorites!  I sit back with my journal, my book and my coloring book!  Time for a little relaxation!

The Final Week! A fun filled weekend with family and dives 27 &28

Happy Monday!  It's week 3.  We're almost finished.  Will is ready to go home.  He is missing his Daddy, (and he just saw him yesterday!). Phil and the kids came in Friday night and stayed until yesterday afternoon.  We filled the weekend with as much as we could!  Two movies (me and big kids), 3 dives (Will and his daddy), indoor skydiving (Ben and Isabel), and church (together!)!  Together again!  My kiddos!  Will's waving to the camera! All the happy divers...Phil, Grandma Linda, Mason (front and center!) Josie and Will! I had a fun surprise for Ben and Isabel!  Indoor Skydiving!  They LOVED it!  Score one for MOM!  It was fun to watch.  Will said he's going to do it next time!  I might just try it too!   They take you out once to let you figure it out and then give you a second flight to go much higher! The first video shows Isabel's first flight, the instructor said sh...

Hello Friday!!! Dives 36 and 37

Dive 36- Josie and Will.  Started the day with another dose and oxygen and Mickey Mouse! Our last solo workout in Miss Tiffany's gym.  We skipped the yoga today and went right for the stairs.  Will grabbed his canes and some friends and got started.  As he was walking it occurred to me how often I took for granted when Ben and Isabel went walking across the floor with toys in their hands.  Just think about that for a minute...then watch this video! He carried Mario and Luigi to the stairs.  I carried them up the stairs and then he proceeded to throw them down.  Typical kiddo! After getting hurled down the stairs now poor Mario has to be thrown in a hoop!  Poor guy! He threw all of Mario's friends in the basket too.   Then he made his way across the room to leave Miss Tiffany one last message.  He made it about halfway when he fell, but you know Will, he got right up and finished the job! I think Will enjoy...

Week 3, Tuesday, Dives 29 & 30

Dive 29- Mr. Will and Josie.  Mickey Mouse, our morning ritual! After the dive Will headed over to Miss Tiffany's gym.  I guess we'll stick around, he likes working in there!  He basically set the whole day up, I only added one thing!  He started himself on the stairs.  I just stood back and filmed! Rock on , Mr. Will! This next thing I added.  The next time you get up from sitting (in a chair for example) think about what all goes into that. I think this will be something he could master when we come back this summer!  By the way, Miss Tiffany will be back for that one!   Back to Will's plan.  He didn't want me to video him getting into position but I thought it showed a lot of good work on Will's part.  Pulling yourself on a scooter is an amazing workout!   Now for the "real" video.  Will set up all the pins and now he is kicking them over, according to his plan!
