trying to crawl

It has been a long time since I updated about Srikar. No major milestones, but he is improving a lot. His is trying to crawl on his tummy. His head control improved a lot. He is babbling and shouting for hours and wants somebody to play with him all the time when he is awake. Though he doesn't like the ramp, he gets down the ramp and tries to move some distance.He is working on his sitting posture.
He thinks grandma is to pamper him and feed him, but not for therapy. He doesn't let grandma do therapy, and whenever he is hungry and sees grandma he starts to cry for food, eventhough me and dad are sitting right there, he doesn't bother to ask us.

We called Hopkins couple of weeks ago to discuss about his seizures. They asked us to send them latest MRI and EEG which he had this week. We tried four medications with no success in controlling his seizures. MRI clearly showed a connection between left and right hemisphere, and the neurologist thinks the seizures are originating from his left hemisphere in the deep midsection.

We will be flying to California during Thanksgiving week to his uncle's place. We always notice that when we are outdoors for couple of hours and after coming home, Srikar behaves as if he missed home and is excited and happy to be home. This will be an intersting trip to see how Srikar takes it.
