This picture may seem like nothing out of the ordinary, but for me, it has particular significance.
Here, Vera in the upright position of her stroller.
Normals kids take this position from about 6 months. But for Vera, she did not tolerate this position for the longest time. She would arch in protest, or bend like bamboo in it. We always had her one notch down, semi-reclined. Her view would be nothing but high rise and sky.
It was always a rush - through grocery shopping, eating, etc, "before Vera gets uncomfortable" in the pram. She had no interest in the surroundings, and outings weren't much fun for us either.
Now, I guess her increased strength and tone has enabled her to take this position for the length of a walk in the park. It has made the exercise literally a stroll. She can now see people, pets, bicycles, cars, children running around.
It is so wonderful, just to watch her watch the world go by.

That's amazing May. How exciting it must be for Vera to view the world from a different perspective. Vera is amazing, Happy New Year to you and your family
Well done, Vera!
:) Great! She also looks great in the feeder chair without all that padding. I like the way she enjoyed the fireworks!
Keep up the great work

great job, vera!! may... to keep her occupied, you can attach some toys to a clip, then clip them onto the top of the canopy. it is great distraction as they swat the toys hanging down & you can probably enjoy your meal better. daiso has a clip that come with a strap with an end loop which we are using.
erm... tat was rae above, by the way. : )
From where I am looking it is a beautiful view. Glad for progress, sweet Vera1
