Taking Flight

This blog post is dedicated to the back of Whitney's head. She has mastered the art of running over the last couple of weeks, so it's almost easier to capture pictures from her backside, as she runs away from me as fast as her little legs will take her! She loves nothing more than to be chased and has made Ben and I realize how out of shape we are as she repeatedly begs "chase me, chase me!" It is an absolute thrill to see her running with such pure joy and reckless abandonment!

Run, Whitney, RUN!!!

I always knew she had wings. :) This is "kinesio tape" that Whitney's physical therapist put on her this week to help strengthen her scapula muscles. Whit tends to favor her right side with various movements. And, Nancy (PT) noticed this with running, too. Whitney holds her left arm more steady and moves the right arm, so hopefully this will help strengthen some weaker muscles! She doesn't seem to mind the tape at all!

Ahhh. All of that running does lead to an eventual crash. But, her wings are spread...and I can only imagine that she is just dreaming about taking flight again!
