Scooter Time!

Levi has been interested in the neighborhood kids' scooters lately so I thought it might be a new way for him to learn and grow. He did a pretty good job! I'm glad he has something else to play with that will help keep him active. With all of the extra oral stimulation that he needs and the way that he loves to cook, we have really had to work with him to keep his weight in check. He was just way too large last fall so we started being very intentional about which foods he has access to. We hiked through the winter and spring, started keeping ice in the house for him to drink lots of ice water, began taking evening walks in our neighborhood, and eventually installed locks on our chest freezer. After eight months of hard work he has grown taller and lost seven or eight pounds!
