a little walking and some bball :)

Carsyn is learning to step one leg at a time (right, left, right, left) with these braces.  We shift her body (an exaggerated shift), and then she kicks the opposite leg forward.  Its so cool.  The purpose of these braces is to teach her and let her feel what walking is all about, and to strengthen the muscles she will need to walk on her own.  As she gets stronger, the braces will get shorter, until one day, they are no more :) Here is a short video of her scoring her first basket standing up :)
