Cooper had a better night last night. He was up from 12:30-3:00, but finally went back to sleep. When he wakes during the night there is nothing you can do to comfort him.

 

We had his speech therapist feed him breakfast since he tends to eat better for her. He ate only a little, but that's better than nothing at all. He said "cup" several times while pointing to it. He had a great OT session. He worked very hard, doing a lot of standing. He also pulled up to a bench on his own. We have really seen a lot of progress in the last few days with his interest in wanting to do more. His PT session wasn't that successful. He was very fussy. We had just gotten him up for a nap, but he never got over the fussiness. She was able to get him to walk a lot, screaming and crying the entire time, but this is what he needs. As soon as PT was over, he was napping.

 

Cooper wouldn't eat dinner, but did eat some of a banana later in the evening. He is still drinking and wetting a lot. His sodium was 144 this morning, which is the highest it should be based on their scale.

 

Cooper, Randy, and I would like to thank everyone for continuing to pray for our precious baby. We are still receiving cards and gifts in the mail. The number of people amaze me. We can't thank you enough. Every time we receive a card we read it aloud as a family. We read all the posts on the blog and on Facebook. It warms our hearts knowing how many people care about our baby, even those who have never met.

Cooper and Misti: he wasn't sure if he was aloud to pet her.
