Well, we have a small little critter that has joined the family. Andrew found a catepillar yesturday afternoon. I guess we are doing okay with it, it is still moving anyway. It was pretty scary tonight when we thought he had gotten lost in the house, but I found him on our coffee table. We even named the little guy, he is called Softy. It is discriptive, if not original =0) I am putting a video up on youtube also. We are now using Andrew's new voice, his Vantage Plus. The video has a little bit of him using the device. We have had it just over two weeks now. We are playing with the device more than anything right now, but I am told that is a good way for him to get to know what is where. He really does pick things up pretty fast. I need to learn more about it, I have some training coming up later this month, and we are working with a new speech therapist that is teaching it to us. Can't wait to learn more about the box so he can learn more and be able to tell us more about what he thinks/feels/knows, etc. It is really all very exciting for us, even if it does take a lot of work.

Anyways, here's Andrew with Softy. Aren't they too cute?
P.S. I just noticed Andrew's teeth after I published this. You can see the two bottom ones are coming in nicely, almost all the way! I didn't realize how fast this process all takes place!
