Sammy update 8/17/13

Sammy update 8/17/13: Samuel's speech therapies yesterday (he had 3 of them!) went very well. He is tolerating nectar/purée fruit juices pretty well, in very small doses. Last evening he was smiling quite a bit; when Archie left, Sam laughe...d at him! This morning, we were using his "yes/no" board (see pic) to ask if he wanted to go outside. (He normally can only "stare" at one of the words). He pointed to the word "yes" & gave us the thumbs up! It was awesome! We took another trip outside after lunch & he has learned to grab & pull his face towel. He's trying to wipe his face. He can use his right arm almost as well as his left. He can move his left leg (not his right yet). He Has really shown off for us today & we couldn't be prouder!
