OK I lied....

I said I wasn't going to post again until we moved - but today we went to the Discovery Center and then to the Botanical Gardens and the pictures were so great I couldn't resist posting them already!

We went to the discovery center for therapy. When we were finished with the therapy we decided to walk across the park to the Botanical gardens, since we saw the moneyville display last time we went there.

Here's therapy:

Ok so you totally don't have to answer this, but who is Maria? I seemed to notice that you talk of her lately and now even some pics but maybe I missed the post about who exactly she is, lol. Also what are the cups that David has supposed to teach him? I noticed before in his pics but now that I see a clear up close pic, I wonder what it teaches?

Btw....Nice pics!! I swear everytime you post pics of David he's chunky, then he's thinned out and then he's chunky again...I think it's Hilarious!!!
Good luck on the move!!

Sorry haha... Maria is our home health nurse. Also, the cup that David uses has a small lip cut out of the top of it. The reason for that is so when he drinks out of it, he doesn't have to tip his head back and risk choking. He does really well with it... if the therapist could just find us a blue one hahaha....

What's the rest of the story?
