Last night (Tuesday) Jeff brought home a DVD from a musical performance that he had worked the previous day. The musician was a folksy, reggaeish kind of guy and was really good (and this is usually not my kind of music) and Gracie quite enjoyed it as well. She was standing by the TV and all of a sudden she started dancing. She loves music...I see music in her future.
Today (Wed) Auntie Sheila came for a visit and took care of Gracie so I could run an errand. Gracie did quite well. She is either very happy or very unhappy, there really isn't much middle ground. I understand she did chew Sheila out with her jabbering. We're not quite sure for what though. The visit must have tired her out. She took a 2 hour and 40 minute nap. Virtually unheard of these days. Her naps have been more in the 5 to 15 minute range.
Evening seems to be Gracie's content time the last couple of days. This also means she is trying new things. Tonight she took five steps all by herself from the TV stand to her V-tech walking/learning toy. Each step was very deliberate and stable. I was so proud.
She continues to have many spasms through the day which is worrisome, but all of the progress she continues to make with her motor skills gives me much optimism.
Thanks for all the good wishes and prayers being sent our way. We know they are giving us strength and we appreciate each and every one of them.
God Bless You All.

"music has charms to soothe the savage.... babe?" Kids do like music.
Our favorite are the CD's by TMBG (They might be giants). We have two: "No! No! No!" and the ABC one. These can be played on your cd OR in the DVD to watch the animations! I am not kidding - in the car, Red will stop fussing as soon as I put it on.
