Today was LizBeth's yearly assessment. She has completed two goals we set in beginning!
1. She can turn her head to both sides to follow a toy. With the trach in, she would not look to the left at all. Now she can turn her body to the left and the right.
2. She eats orally all the time now! We had set her goal as "taking 4 ounces every 2-4 hours" and we have accomplished that!
We are continuing to work on her physical development and communication. She makes lots of sounds and is trying to blow raspberries. We are using a loaner stroller. I have no idea how to collapse it to a portable size, so today I crammed it in the van and slammed the door. After several attempts, I managed to get it in, without injury even! She had a great day... we did too.
Katelyn is in a Land Run tomorrow. Our school is hosting our first Land Run. I'm sure it will be fun. Sarah will have to participate next year. She's a little bummed, but glad she doesn't have to run!
