Weekend Outlook

The weather is sunny and warm in Northern California today, and it's going to be sticking around through the weekend. Awesome. With the unseasonably warm weather to enjoy, I'm planning lots of outdoor excursions for Paige and Taylor. (Mike is planning a golf outing with "the boys" for Saturday - it's the first break in cold weather, so I should've known he'd be hitting the golf course - but, he works so hard, he deserves it). There's a great park for the girls and I to visit on Saturday while Mike is golfing....and Sunday and Monday, we can look forward to a field trip or two since Mike will have a 3-day weekend to hang with the family. Be sure to check Twinsanity after the weekend is over since there are likely to be some new pictures posted from our fun, fabulous 3-day weekend.

In other happenings, today we had a routine appointment with Taylor's neurologist. Her neurologist is "pleased" with Taylor's progress and remarked that he "sees a considerable improvement in her walking since the last appointment 3 months ago..." He also signed a new RX order for continued physical therapy in the clinic as well as continued therapeutic horseback riding for Taylor for all of 2009 while also instructing me that physical therapy will need to remain the "cornerstone of services for Taylor's treatment and management of cerebral palsy for several years to come." He also said that he doesn't need to see Taylor back again for 6 months since she seems to be making such great progress. Good news all the way around for Taylor and us today!
