Caleb Reading Some More

Caleb's reading has been really coming along lately. He is sounding out words regularly and is starting to understand that when he practices enough, he can read FUN books and so he can learn about things. It's really exciting to see him expanding in this realm. Here's a book that he's been practicing lately. It gets harder for him later in the story (it's 40 pages!), and we haven't made it all the way through, but we're amazed at his memory for the written word!

Don't forget to pause the music on the right to hear him better.

Bowling, bowling, bowling!

A couple of weeks ago we got to spend the day bowling to celebrate cousins Braden and Bella's birthdays. We had so much fun! And if you're wondering, "How the heck does a kid with muscular dystrophy go bowling?" ... there are ways!

The Birthday girl and boy.
The bowling ally has adaptive equipment!


What do you think, Papa? Is it a good one?

Showing off some standing skills.

Is that one a strike?

Gotta get that 6-10 split!

Doing the chicken dance.

It's all fun and games...

til someone gets sad :(


Apparently, Caleb wasn't done dancing... he wanted to dance on the tables.

Caleb - The Frog and The Fish

Caleb has been doing some pretty spectacular things in the water lately. He is mostly independent with his maneuvers/stunts. Enjoy!

I don't think I'll ever get tired of seeing how much he can do in the water and how much freedom it gives him.
