Default So Exciting!

So Jordan is 19 months old he has very low tone and he just rolled over on his own for the first time tonight!!! I am so proud of my little man! Although the reason he rolled was because he is into playing with his cuff on his trach and it flopped to the other side of his neck and thats what he was going to grab! We tell him not to touch the cuff but it helped him to roll so yay for that!

I can see some new house rules coming into effect

1. Clean up your toys
2.Make your bed
3. Play with your trach cuff

LOL congrats!
