Crawling!

Lynnlee crawled for the first time last night! We aren't crazy parents trying to get her to reach all the milestones ASAP. We understand that because of her heart she has been a little delayed with her motor skills but we wanted her to develop and not get too behind. There is a great program called Kids On The Move. Who could say no to a free resource that would help her. They have been working with Lynnlee for the past few weeks. When I first met with them they told me Lynnlee would pick up on it fast and probably not even have to meet with the Physical Therapist more than once. I was surprised to hear that. They were right though.

The Physical Therapist came last week. She showed different ways to help Lynnlee. One of those is putting this stool in front of her so she can practice being on her knees. (James was jealous and had to get his stool out of the bathroom)

Lynnlee has loved the step. After a week of playing on it she started crawling (We may or may not have bribed her with food). So looks like I can call Kids On The Move and tell them (in a nice way) Lynnlee will no longer need their services :)

Go Lynnlee!
