Something so little, yet so BIG!

Dylan can sit on a stool!  I know this may not sound like much to some of you but to us it is amazing!  Dylan struggles with low muscle tone and poor motor planning so each and every skill that he achieves can easily bring me to tears.  Up until last week he could not sit on a chair without a back or let alone a strap to keep him from sliding down or just falling backwards, but last Friday I guess he decided it was time to move forward.  He has been able to sit up on the stool during his infant stimulation and OT therapy hours and still been able to play and interact.  We are all so proud of him and I know this new increase in core strength will bring him that much closer to walking one day. 
 He can also ride on Luke's Dinosaur now, Luke wasn't too happy about that. (sorry it's blurry)
