We got a very special package in the mail yesterday…<\/p>\n

\"DSC_6154\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We told the guy at the door what it was, and he seemed genuinely excited for the little guy jumping up and down in the hallway. <\/p>\n

Lightening McQueen was the choice this go-round. See that cool knee joint?!?<\/p>\n

\"DSC_6159\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Getting all suited up…<\/p>\n

Time for a test drive. Right now, he takes big steps and then kicks it to make the knee joint straighten again. As he gets used to it, this won’t be quite so clumsy. In the picture above, he’s still sticking it out to the side, as he’s gotten used to doing with his stationery knee. <\/p>\n

And, here he is doing the kick-thing. <\/p>\n

\"DSC_6171\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He was very excited about trying it, and gave it all he had. <\/p>\n

\"DSC_6187\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"DSC_6175\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But, by the afternoon he was getting scared of it, because he fell once or twice…and, it’s kind of a violent fall. So, he’s gone back to walking by swinging it to the side. We’re giving him some time. He fell today because he didn’t think it would bend, but it did. We’re hoping he’ll come to the conclusion that practicing with it bending might be a better idea. <\/p>\n

The foot on his other leg. Amazing how a very-well made (but man-made) foot can look worn down like this after 8 months, when our intelligently created feet last a lifetime. Had to put that out there :)<\/p>\n

\"DSC_6195\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Comparing feet. Oh, like you don’t do this at home…<\/p>\n

He still wouldn’t bend it much today, but we encouraged him to a few times. It’ll take some time for him to warm up to this. But, he will. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
