Dive # 8
The crew is back! Mr. Will, Miss Josie, Mr. Ron, Mr. Doug, Mr. Mark and Grandma Linda and myself. We watched Mickey Mouse and I got some reading in. Linda and I have some pretty good conversations in that chamber, but today I was missing my reading time. I started a new book, the last one just didn't grab my attention. We'll see if this one does the trick!
After the dive we headed to Walmart. I had a few things on my list that I didn't see at Target so I thought I would look here. Mr. Will is becoming quite the shopper. He requested to push the cart right away. He had a great time.
I love to see him let go of the cart and look so natural doing so! Watch how he handles this turn. He's getting to be a pro! He's also getting to be a pushy director. He just loves knowing he's on camera!
Dive # 9
After we left Walmart we had just enough time to grab a quick lunch at Rezzi before heading back to the spaceship! Everyone is back again. This dive will be Mr. Ron's last one. It's always bittersweet to see a new friend graduate from the chamber. I wish him well as he continues to regain strength and mobility after his stroke.
After the dive we headed back to the Rezzi. Will wanted to try on a new shirt that we picked up at Wal-mart. I told him he could check it out in the mirror. This is what happened next.
I'm so proud of him! He not only looked at himself in the mirror, but then turned to show all of "his friends". Did you hear me make a beep sound like I had pressed the button to stop recording! Little did he know I captured the best parts, when he didn't even know the video was running!
Will wanted a snack so I reminded him that I fixed a snack drawer for him...in the kitchen.
Way to go Will! I raised his canes up a little bit. He's getting so tall. I guess they are the appropriate height, he didn't seem to notice it. Now for that snack!
Now for the last video of the day. Will is a picky, picky eater. I have been trying (always) to get him to try new things. So I thought I would use the videos to encourage some new "food challenges". So far it's worked pretty well. Keep in mind, he usually won't even touch it to his lips! Tonight dinner was chicken nuggets (which he usually eats, but didn't want to tonight) and then something new. Dr. Praeger's Broccoli Littles. This child eats NO vegetables. This is a very big deal that they are even on his plate!
So the veggies were a no go, but he did try them! Yay Will! He ended eating 2 chicken nuggets, but had didn't want to. I told him for every nugget he could have a strawberry (he does love fruit). I could still only get him to eat 2 but he had a pretty big snack earlier. I'll take it!

Look how comfortable he's getting. He even stops to point out some items he thought were neat.
