Wrapping up Round 2.

He sailed through yet another treatment, even with a runny nose.

He's had one blood tranfusion, one platelet and is scheduled for another shot of blood before we leave.

I'm hopeful that we'll be out at the begining of this week, but it will likely be closer to the end.

We attached a strap to the front of his walker and take our laps around the ward like that. He LOVES the higher level of interactive play and everyone remarks on his hot new wheels.

He continues to wake up cheerily from almost every nap, maintains a fierce love of the bathtub (woe to anyone who calls an end to bathtime), and remains an active rider of the knee horse. He's perfected sitting up on his own and rarely takes an unintended dive for the mattress anymore. He's also cleverly figured out how to move from the sitting position to kneeling upright against the crib bars that are so delectable to taste. Thankfully, he has yet to figure out sitting up from a prostrate position. Still, as his energy picks up, so do the crib bars. This will NOT be one case of child-topples-from-crib. Apparently, the paperwork is exhausting.
