New walker tricks

Here's a pic and a clip of Hannah in her new walker. In this first one you can see her using the fold-down seat. I'm so glad we got this option: it's great for her to be able to walk up to something and then sit down in front of it if she wants to play with free hands. Right now we have to get the seat down for her but hopefully this is something she can figure out on her own soon. It will also help when we're out and about walking around and she gets tired. Instant seat!




And in this video clip, Hannah's trying to figure out how to get the swivel wheels to go the way she wants them to go. She's still working on that but having fun trying! She cracks herself up when gets herself going in circles. She's not wearing her AFOs in this clip but the difference when she does wear them is amazing: her gait is steady and strong. I'm also noticing that her tone in her legs seems to have reduced and she is more loose/flexible. I don't know if it's because the AFOs are stretching her legs when she wears them or because she is walking more so she's getting stretched that way. Whatever the reason, it's so nice to feel how relaxed she is.
