I think Emma might have more trouble operating one than Max, so we have not gotten her one yet. I was also worried that she might be too tall for one now. It always seems like by the time she is "able" or "about able" to do something, she has outgrown the toy or the whatever. But, it looks like Max fit in there okay! <br /><br />By the way, he looks fab driving that Escalade. Definitely could be cruisin' for chicks. He certainly is a babe magnet. Loving his hair! I want his hair. It is so thick and lays so nicely! Is it wrong for me to covet his hair?<br /><br />Go MAX!!!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11818818093248788832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-1808469456710222952011-06-05T20:24:24.378-04:002011-06-05T20:24:24.378-04:00He knows how to go left, stop, and keep his eyes o...He knows how to go left, stop, and keep his eyes on the road. He's a better driver than most. I like the one hand on the steering wheel too. Way cool, Max! Yep, he's crusin' for chicks and ready to put that right arm around a lucky girl. Did Dad teach him that trick?emailmarcynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-32806140803443036792011-06-05T14:07:37.298-04:002011-06-05T14:07:37.298-04:00HA!

He does look like Joe Cool, doesn't he? <br /><br />Maybe the cast is also working like an AFO and giving him additional stabilization of foot/ankle in addition to correcting the turn in his foot???? <br /><br />What a car! I'll bet that thing costs more than the one I drive to work every day!Felicianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-22683366385770734712011-06-05T11:12:41.894-04:002011-06-05T11:12:41.894-04:00I think max is looking for chickI think max is looking for chickToonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13035308590730363327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-62061239173975227402011-06-05T11:00:18.591-04:002011-06-05T11:00:18.591-04:00Not only does he look like he's mastered it, h...Not only does he look like he's mastered it, he looks settled in general, and very focused.<br /><br />Any chance the vibrations work for him? He's basically sitting on a motor, right?<br /><br />BTW, my E. once had two casts because he broke both legs at once. He was allowed to walk on them, and managed to get around really quick.Staying Afloathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06228636990839399469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-62604516227150073522011-06-05T10:52:44.610-04:002011-06-05T10:52:44.610-04:00That is awesome!

And yes, any chance to give them a feeling of independence is so important. <br /><br />Andrew's father won one of these cars at a raffle and we wondered about the little guy's ability to push those pedals with his braces -- we were done with the castings by the time he got the car. He too was a natural and had a blast with it!<br /><br />One note on those casts - they don't seem to slow the kids down at all. He almost always had 2 casts at a time when getting botox shots (between ages 2 -4), and after 1 day of crawling/getting used to them, he would be off and "running" or rather, moving at a gait/speed that he considered running. Other parents at the park didn't quite know how to act when they saw a kid with two casts ambling to the climbing area - should they pull their kids aside, make room, you could see it in their faces. But once he started climbing or walking around, everyone relaxed and it was kids as normal.Samanthahttp://dingdingletsride.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-27657435934574837182011-06-05T08:15:08.053-04:002011-06-05T08:15:08.053-04:00Cruising for chicks I don't think so at least...<em>Cruising for chicks </em> I don't think so at least not untill he's 30, has a job and the means to support that chick :)Nishahttps://nisha360.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-46446189643184317752011-06-05T07:37:53.822-04:002011-06-05T07:37:53.822-04:00He totally looks like he is cruising for chicks!! ...He totally looks like he is cruising for chicks!!

Any opportunity for self determination - choosing clothes, walking frames, this car, all give them the "I'm doing it" buzz.<br />Max, you're a Dude. :)dderbydavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07448901859808979140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-59477480156770274332011-06-05T00:43:29.434-04:002011-06-05T00:43:29.434-04:00Oh my!!
