They both arrived yesterday.
I am floored at how much I already LOVE the new equipment...take a look!
The Keekaroo with the tray
The Keekaroo without the tray
LOOK at how STRAIGHT he's sitting!!
The chair is excellent quality. I ordered the padding and it looks durable and comfy. It did require assembly, but it wasn't hard. I highly suggest this chair!
Now, the croc! At first it was iffy -- Jack was leary of the vendor guy and didn't know what to make of the croc walker. After the man left and after Jack had his nap we tried again. It's so adjustable it's got literally hundreds of configurations. It comes with a little pouch to hold the allen (alan??) wrench. He can steer and everything!! This is something he couldn't do until this afternoon! His walking was limited to a straight line! Now, he's all over the house!!! His first task was to go to the Christmas tree (laughing all the way)!!!
I hope to bring it with us more places because he truly is independent with it (except getting up into it, but we'll work on that!) He needs room to roam! I was thinking of the corridors at the hospital (let him run over a few people -- ha ha) or the mall early in the morning before the stores open. Of course the mall will wait until after Christmas. Any other indoor ideas?
Jason was amazed too. This isn't just a subtle difference -- this is a jaw dropping, jump up and down difference!
I love the Keekaroo. I'm going to have our PT look at their site and see what she thinks.
ReplyDeleteJack looks great with his CROC. I know what you mean, it really is a jaw drop, jump up and down difference! Steering capabilities, arm rests and more! I think we are suppose to get ours today. The one we have belongs to EI.
I don't have any other ideas for hall cruising except the school. Enjoy your new equipment, Jack!
WTG Jack!!! You look awesome with your Croc...and in the Keekaroo!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a merry Christmas little man!!
Does his school have a gym you could take him to after hours to practice his walking?
Good luck!
Happy Day after Christmas little "Romeo"! Did you have a Merry Christmas? With all of the goodies you got, I'm sure you'll be playing with your new toys til next Christmas comes. We are so proud of how well you ate! You sure were shoveling it all in! Great Job! Unfortunately, the rest of us were doing a pretty good job ourselves!! Not too many leftovers.
ReplyDeleteWe stopped off at your house today and put something in the back door for Mommy and Daddy(a recipe). Hoep they found it!!!
Have a good one!! Love you Romeo,
Grammie
PS: This message is from my new computer, what do ya think?
