Levi has been sleeping the majority of the time lately, but today he perked up and had a pretty good day. He loves to be outside, so I took him out this morning into the gorgeous sunshine that we've been waiting so long for. We gave him a haircut, and he had the first tub bath since the surgery. All that activity wore him out, so he took a long nap and woke up feeling better. This evening we went out again. He was interested in all the noises of the birds, lawnmowers, etc, and even picked his head up and looked around. Then he did something he hasn't done in nearly a year. He sucked on my arm! He's been cutting molars and canines, so I expected him to bite down, but he didn't. Just to see what would happen, I stuck a pacifier in his mouth, and he sucked on it briefly. This is a big deal! He stopped taking the bottle last July and hasn't had much of a suck reflex since. It will be so great to see him regain some skills he's lost now that he feels better! God is SO good!
