25 months: We are having profound walking progress lately. Whitney will pick up and put down her feet when we hold both her hands. It is so joyous to watch. I don't think it will be long before she is standing on her own. Today at therapy, we put whitney into the gait trainer. She took off! I had never seen her try to walk in that on her own. It was very cool.

In speech therapy, they are starting to use a communication board to teach her to communicate with words. She knows the button concept very well with single buttons. She can't wait during circle time for that button to come around to her so she can push it and hear what it says! Now it is time to transfer that to more buttons with pictures/words attached to it.

I was looking at several of these boards for home use. A bit pricy but it might be worth purchasing.

Go Talk ($180.00...nice size, portable)

Listen To Me ($90.00...smaller)

Tech Talk ($395.00...The one used at therapy)
