Yay! Lily's on the move! At 10-1/2 months she finally took her first crawl step. She's been in PT for a month now and her therapist is so proud of her. When we first started Lily was terrified to put any weight on her hands, getting her on all fours was impossible. But she quickly learned it was okay. She slowly put her weight on her arms, then began rocking on all fours. Last week she finally crawled, "froggie style". She would move her hands forward then kinda hop with both legs at the same time. Within 3 or 4 days she had the crawling thing down. Now all of Jake and Abby's toys are fair game. She loves their stuff so much more!
We're still working on rolling over (she's stuck on her back :-) and working with her to build up her leg muscles so she can put weight on them and stand. She is continuing to hold her little right foot out but the therapist recommended getting a pair of hard soled shoes for her to wear just when we're practicing to help her stand flat footed with both feet.
Jamming out. Everyone still loves this toy and it's now becoming one of Lily's favorites.
