Just a few details about our MIRACLE!


Things Logan can do now that he could not do just a little over a month ago before his medicine:
Run without falling.
Squat down for an extended period of time without falling over or losing his balance.
Walk the balance beam at the therapy gym without falling off.
Jump with bended knees and not lose his balance.
Jump off ledges, chairs, and other furniture without help and still land on his feet.  (Is that bad I let him jump off the furniture?)
DANCE! DANCE! DANCE!  (We love this one!)
Wake up loose and without tremors. (This is a HUGE one! He used to wake up stiff as a board and shake for long periods of time.)
Eat using utensils with ease.
Put together puzzles and play with his toys without struggling or getting frustrated. (He still has his moments of frustration, but nothing like before.  He is so much more controlled.)
Speak in 2-3 word phrases.   (Before, we were lucky to get 1-3 words total out of him at speech therapy sessions.)
Mimic what we say and respond to our questions with an appropriate answer.
Go up and down the stairs without holding the rail.  (He was crawling up and down before.)
Sleep through the night EVERY night without waking up until 9:00am.  Mommy likes this one! (Before, he would wake up in the middle of the night at least 2-3 times a week for hours at a time.  He would thrash around in his crib and cry for hours until I could calm him down enough to go back to bed.) 
This smile speaks volumes!  It is infectious!
