All is still ticking along well here. Another trip to Christchurch and out to Van Asch, and another great appointment, despite chaos and confusion with the flights (First Christchurch Airport was shut the morning we were flying down - so ended up waiting an hour and a bit in two different lines. Then Healthpac didn't book James and i on the flight home, so more panic, but Air New Zealand were lovely and put us on anyway.) Neil and Joanne were nice and pleased with our clever little boy, and his hearing age has caught up with his biological age, so he is doing extra well.
He can now sit up on his own (and only falls over every now and then, or if he gets very excited; all co-ordination goes out the window then) and his motor skills are improving, or so we think. He has two wickedly sharp teeth, that he uses to great glee on everyone's fingers, so you have been warned!
I also have a few more thanks...
Firstly to the Wellington Special Education Team, for some great fundraising that is still continuing.
Secondly, the BNZ Bank team for their mufti day fundraiser
Thirdly, Ruthie and the NZ Post crew, who organised a lovely Theatre evening in town, which was great despite mum's car getting clamped.
And Last but not least, to Angela Povey, a friend of the Whale Family, for her incredibly generous donation.
Thanks so much to you all.
The next fundraiser, for those interested, is at the end of this month. On Saturday the 27th September, we are having a Pumpkin Patch Fashion show, with local kids modeling the new Spring/ Summer '08 season clothing. There will be a chance to win a $50 Patch voucher, raffles, spot prizes for kiddies who come dressed up for the spring/summer theme, and a yummy afternoon tea. If you're interested, contact your local James Representative. Tickets are $7 per person, or $10 per family. It will be out here in Tawa, from 3 - 4pm.
