Walker-ama

Just a quick fly-by post to show you how fabulously Ellie's doing with her SWASH (hip brace)! Look at her, showing off for the therapist at Children's Hospital!

Also note that Ellie's wearing her new AFO's (leg braces) underneath her jeans. Aren't her sneakers cute? Her feet look all puffy because the shoes have to fit over the braces (they're made especially for this purpose). I think they're sweet! Anyway, Ellie's learning to walk with a lot of new equipment so I think she's progressing really well. I'm encouraged!
