Zoe's getting wheels!

Y'all.

That baby girl in Taiwan who wasn't expected to walk?

Today, she's being fitted for one of these.

but I'll post pics of her in hers as soon as we have it!}

Zoe will be rocking the "mini" size, which is the smallest and which she is FINALLY tall enough to use. Given her strength and supported walking skills and desire for mobility, we're expecting Zoe to be in her wheels for a whole lot of her waking hours.

Church friends, you might want to watch your ankles. 

While I usually just call it a walker, it's technically a gait trainer. Gait trainers have more bells and whistles and support than walkers. Zoe is expected to graduate to a walker  (and maybe one way graduate to independent mobility sans wheels), and this gait trainer is the first step to getting to that. She'll have the chest support and hand loops, but she probably won't need any of the other accessories they offer. 

Feel both excited (and completely unprepared) for our girl to be MOBILE!
