So, Keelie had physical therapy and speech therapy yesterday. Her speech therapy (food swallowing) was first then we had physical therapy. The physical therapist needed to see her after speech therapy we were late getting done. It was about 12:45 so we went and ate lunch then waited to pick cayden up to take her to dance. Keelie had a good day in speech. The speech therapist wants us to work on open cup drinking and to not let her drink so much when she is eating. She believes she is filling up by drinking. And maybe she is, she has always drank a lot. So maybe that was her way to avoid foods. We also are going to try introduce some of the same foods to her to try to give her a chance to get used to it or like it. I may be introducing too many new foods to her. In her physical therapy session she had a great day. She did a lot and she worked hard. I was so proud of her. She even jumped on the trampoline. For those of you who don't know, Keelie can't jump so this was huge. Keelie got AIR.....lol. She still couldn't do it on the ground but one step at the time is good enough for me.
Today Keelie had occupational therapy and speech therapy. She had OT first. She did pretty good. We took anyhow and tell. Keelie has been playing that gam
e prediction which requires some pincher activity. I had to show the OT what she could do. She doesn't always use her pinchers but what she does is good. Any progress better than none. She didn't do everything then therapist wanted her to do but she did good. She seemed a little preoccupied today. I told the therapist that I wanted her to try to take Keelie by herself. I think she will do better without me. She seems too concerned with me being right beside her and if I weren't in there then she would focus more on the therapist instead of me. Her speech therapy went really well. She did stay in there by herself because I had to change and feed ryland. She did really good. We met a friend for lunch then we just waited on cayden to get out of school. We will have speech therapy again tomorrow then we are done for the week. Whew!!!!!
We are getting ready for Cayden's 5th birthday. The party is on Sunday. She is so excited. It will be fun and it's fun to see her so excited.
Thanks to all who follow the blog and pray for us. We appreciate you all.
There is NO WAY that Cayden is 5!!! I remember her 1st birthday party (it was last year right?!!!)
