Matt is continuing to surprise us.  We’ve started putting together cognitive games that Matt is really starting to get going.  We have to keep mixing it up because after a while Matt gets bored with the same old thing.  We ask him if we wants to continue and he says yes so we keep going on.  Today Lisa and I had Matt up in the Standing Frame for over an hour and Matt had complete head control.  We usually see him stand supporting his head for 10 to 20 minutes at a time but today it was well over an hour!  While standing and over the past week Matt’s eye alignment has really improved as well.  I kind of think when he went in to the eye doctor on December 26 he realized what he was missing visually to his right and I also think he’s hearing us talk about it as well as every time we explain it to someone visiting he’s hearing us and working on correcting himself all on his own.  We haven’t even gotten his glasses yet but it’s like he is figuring it out with the therapy.  While he was standing tonight he was turning his head to the right and looking at pictures, the fireplace while he was up straight and holding his head up on his own.  Maybe it’s the eye control that’s helping with the head control, don’t know but whatever it is, we’ll take it!
