Thanks to Diane who sent him this AMAZING walking toy, that ALL of our kids shouled have Koby nad MaryEllen's PT was just GAGA over it! Koby is now standing unaided in the middle of the room for 30seconds to a minute. If you tell him Up UP UP(stole that from Diane too) he will stand up for as long as he can then before his butt hits the ground he is CHEERING and clapping for himself! SOOO cute..I have it on Video but for SOME reason can't get the video to work...I will have to figure this out this weekend!
Then thanks to Kennedy he has learned abotu 5 more signs.That puts him up to about 50,and about 10-15 spoken words..Indian is still his favorite!
He alsois combining signs nicely like "Eat",Milk" "Please". So he is doing very well ther!
He can recognixe parts of his body..HIs head, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, feet, belley and "butt cheeks"(thanks to Chris)lol.
He is doing so well!!! I have all of this on Video and hope to get it to you guys ASAP..I know I LOVE seeing Video!-Courtney

Wow, way to go Koby!! Your doing some GREAT new things. I had to laugh about the butt cheeks, we use to spank Dylan's bottom (kidding around) and say butt, he would laugh. And when his teachers would come to the house he'd lay on the couch and say butt (for them to spank his bottom) talk about embarrassing, lol!!

WTG Koby. I just found one from an ebay store. I didn't want to bid against the Downsyn people so I just made an offer instead. I have a walker, but this one looks easier to handle. I have the red truck that they sell now. On well, what is one more toy to dodge. Thanks for the heads up on the walker. The one I got has the bar in the front. Courtney, the red truck you posted is the one that we have. It is OK, but this one looks like it will be more sturdy. The truck kind of shoots out from under him if I don't hold it.

Koby you are awesome!! Thanks for the heads up on the walker. I have a saved favorite search on Ebay for when the next one comes available. I didn't want to bid against a fellow Downsyn person either!

Ibby

P.S. Court, I love the new signature pics!! You look beautiful!

Courtney, once Koby is walking and running, you'll need to pass his walker on to someone else at downsyn to keep it in the family!

I just came across this thread and thought what a great walker ~ I want to get one for Joel for later on. I googled them and found out they were recalled years back. Here is the info.

That's probably why the one on ebay was missing the front bar ~ it was removed for safety.
