Bounce!

Modified crawl: Once she sets her sights on something,
Norah will hardly stop at anything to get her hands on it!
Here, she's reaching for that blue and white tube,
which is much easier with the Trilogy's circuit.
It really is amazing how much Norah has bounced back from her pneumonia. Since returning to South Davis on Tuesday, she is a whole new girl. She's giving away smiles for free to anyone that wants one. She's kicking and dancing and having a wonderful time. I've even seen some progress with her mobility - she's trying to flip, roll, stretch, sit, and dare I say getting into a modified crawl position to reach for things. Everyone has commented on how incredibly happy she has been. And to top it all off, she's jumping right back into her time on the Trilogy ventilator. We're not quite where we were before she got sick, but we're well on our way.

Our day trip on Christmas looks like it's going to go off without a hitch!

We could hardly be happier. Norah is such a tough little girl. I look at the light in her eyes, and have complete faith that she will continue to thrive and progress. It's only a matter of time. Our life is a bit of a roller coaster, and it's great to have another climb behind us.

The older Norah gets, the more she and
Harper look alike.

Even her eyes are smiling.
