Wow, today was so much fun. We started in physical therapy and Tayton is doing amazing. He was even able to climb a ladder a couple of steps. Then on the way back from the therapy gym he rode his tricycle, which was his new favorite thing. He continued to ride that everywhere. He got going pretty fast and you had to run to keep up with him. Also speech therapy came today and cleared him for eating!!! So that meant he got the feeding tube out. He was scared at first but he was so happy he got it out. So now we offically have no tubes, or iv's. It is so nice.
Later in the evening, my family came for a fun Christmas Eve Party. We had soup, sandwiches, and Tayton loved eating. This kid is hungry all the time now which is such an amazing sign. We had a lot of fun at our Christmas party in the burn unit waitng room. It really doesn't matter where we are, it was just so fun to be together. Tayton and Tanna got spoiled with presents and are so excited for Christmas tomorrow. Then later on in the evening we were able to take Tayton out of the hospital and we showed him the Ronald McDonald house where we have been staying. He thought it was pretty cool. We have seen so many miracles these past 5 1/2 weeks. I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas. I know we sure will. Enjoy the time you have together. Merry Christmas!
