Austin doing what he loves most -STANDING SOLO!!!
Looks like his cheeks are going down a bit too! ;)
We've certainly been on the edge of our seats lately watching this hurricane. It's looking better and better for us right now, but I doubt I will relax until I know for sure where it's going. I wouldn't be quite as uptight if we wouldn't have had to evacuate just a week and a half ago -FOR NOTHING! BUT, I'm betting it will be fine and then we'll breathe a HUGE sigh of relief! :)
Another thing keeping us on our toes is our Mr. Austin Man! At the rate he's going on his standing, I wouldn't be surprised if he started walking soon! I just can't tell you how thrilled I am about this. Everyone keeps telling me I'll be eating those words once he's up and about...I doubt that. I will NEVER take those milestones for granted. I have my camcorder charged and ready to go at a moments notice!! :)
The spasms are about the same still. Some days are better than others, but he has at least 20 on his "good" days. Very frustrated, very impatient... The best thing I can say about them is that the Keppra and Zonegran have definitely lessened their intensity and frequency. When he's having a "bad" day, I have to remind myself where we were just a couple of months ago. He was having 5-6 clusters a day with some containing up to 50-70 spasms...making the grand total for the day nearly 200 spasms. Now, a "bad" day consists of 50 spasms. It's not where he needs to be, but it's an improvement at least.
Hopefully, I'll be checking in more often, providing Ike leaves us alone!

Wow! His cheeks are going down. I love the first picture of him just starting to stand and I love the second one of his with his "look what I can do" grin on his face!
