the latest on Cody boy!

 Cody is now almost 21 months old- he has changed since my latest post back from January!  He now talks with his hands, which is really cute. I think he got that from watching Grandma :).  He does say dddd, and dadada, and I've heard him say "why" a couple of weeks ago.  He is a truly happy little guy.  He also has officially started cruising on Easter. Before that he took a few steps holding on, but he now cruises up and down the couch!  He's so mobile! 

 Last night, I had a moment- an emotional moment. I went rewind to two years ago being pregnant and the apprehension of not knowing the degree of Cody's diagnosis of DS.     Then I felt this really grateful- happy -crying moment about how wonderful Cody's doing and progressing. I'm getting emotional now thinking about the moment I had!  I would never have imagined he would be doing as well as he is.  He also has an upcoming echocardiogram next week. Hopefully all will still continue to be good with his heart too. There was a little bit of fluid in his lungs that the cardiologist is monitoring, so I"m glad he will be checked out again.  Thank you everyone for all the prayers you've had for Cody and continue to have.  He has truly amazed us
 and it's so wonderful!
