Jack's new wheelchair is HERE!!!! We LOVE it! He sits so well in it and it has all of the extras we've been waiting for!
I didn't realize just how heavy it would be though. WOW. Everyone used to comment on how light his previous chair was -- but since I had no reference I really didn't get it! It still fits in the back of our van the same way the other one did and I am very thankful for that.
We are in the process of getting a quote on a ramp and new front porch for the front of the house. It's something we knew we'd be facing and we feel it's time -- especially with this new chair.
Jack is very proud of his new wheels and loves when you tell him "Niiiiiiiiice wheelchair Jack!!!" Of course this is the same kid who likes when you tell him he has "niiiiiiice teeth" or "niiiiiiice hair" he loves a little attention now and then ; )
Morgan had her 18 month check up last week. She's doing very well and is on target for her age as far as growth and development. I am simply not used to "easy" check ups without a list a mile long for the doctor!
Here she's modeling her new winter coat! We were on our way to the library -- where she goes to not be quiet, lol! Thankfully they have a great kids section with books, toys and blocks. She makes friends very easily and doesn't let anyone get a word in...we'll have to work on that! j/k...
Our October Pictures are ready -- lots of fun pirate poses!
Nice wheelchair Jack!
ReplyDeleteNiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice wheels Jack! Is he able to manuever it himself? Love Morgan in her pink coat! Glad you get the opportunity to have "normal" with her. Hope it is refreshing! Lovely to hear Jack is on the mend from his UTI. These poor kiddos, Meghan keeps getting those as well. I guess it is from the CP.
ReplyDeleteCool wheels Jack! No wonder you like them so much. You'll be speeding around in that new set real soon. Just watch out for your sister, no hit and runs!!!1
ReplyDeleteLove you both, Grammie
PS: Love the pirate costumes! Next Jack Sparrow maybe?
I like his new wheels. The last time we went wheel chair shopping for a new travel chair for Regan. The first thing I requested was for it to weigh as less as possible, and if we could have all-terrain wheels to go across grass and gravel easily. Odd what our priorities are when it comes to chairs.
ReplyDeleteNICE chair, Jack!! So glad he's feeling better. :) Off to check out all the cool pics... :)
ReplyDeletenice wheels Jack come visit
ReplyDeletei'm glad jack is feeling better....and nice wheelchair, we are in the process of ordering our very first set of wheels as well...a wheelchair stroller...and also, those are by far the cutest pirates i've ever seen :)
ReplyDeleteI hope this opens up lots of new possibilities for Jack! That's what we found whenever we got our Max a new walker. It took a little while for him to adjust, then suddenly, he was everywhere.
ReplyDeleteI find this blog incredibly inspirational, you're on my blog roll!
Niiiiice wheels, Dude! Nothing feels better than the right chair.
ReplyDeleteTalkative in pink. LOL Too cute.
ReplyDeleteNiiiiiiiiice wheelchair Jack!!! So glad that Jack's new wheelchair worked out for everyone. Keep on rollin!
ReplyDeleteThey are heavy. We got an attachment for the trunk of the car so we did not have to life my dads in and out.
ReplyDeleteNiiiiiiice chair Jack!! It really looks cool.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! He looks happy in his new wheels. Can he manipulate it himself?
Glad your feeling better little buddy!
