Adventure Update 3 Early Intervention

 Early Intervention! What’s going on? Not much. Amber’s range of motion is getting so much better. She’s lifting her legs more and higher. She can’t quite grab her toes but it’s still a big improvement. She’s lifting her arms higher too. She can almost pull her bows out now. Her neck muscles are getting stronger. She does much better at stabilizing her head when she’s held. Her trunk is slowly, slowly, slowly coming along. She still becomes a puddle in her bouncy seat and car seat but it takes longer. She doesn’t slump as much and she can pull herself back up straight a few times before getting too tired. We’re working on supported sitting in a bean bag chair right now and it’s going pretty good!


 In case you were wondering her bean bag chair has a hedgehog face on it and little feet

She's also getting to be a champ at holding her own bottle!

  2. Oh man! I can't believe I forgot the captions on those! Yes, she has to read everything. She always steals the Pier 1 fliers, maybe we have a future interior decorator? And she loves mugs, an early coffee drinker just like her mother.

    Miss you guys too!
