We get all of our equipment through United Seating. If I don't point it out specifically, insurance and medicaid paid for most of the big stuff. But, he's about to outgrow most of this, so we're going to be making some new purchases soon!
This list is for the moms I know, but also those who read here that might be curious as to what Max gets around in.
This is Max's jogger:

Max's bed: Full Size, from my favorite store, IKEA! It's very low to the ground, so perfect for our rolling guy. We have wedges under the top of the mattress for a slight incline.

Wow, Max! What cool stuff you have! And that bike trailer/stroller actually has a little room for you to grow, which is perfect since you are getting SO good at growing! I don't think I've seen your Quickie Zippie yet, but you sure look like a BIG boy sitting with your desk! (although Olive sure looks a bit mischievous in that picture...)
Wow...I can't believe you haven't seen him in his wheelchair. We'll have it next time we see you. He's like a different kid in it.
Oh...and Olive is mischievous!
