Mila is gaining more head control and when she doesn't realize it (like when she is watching tv) she is working on those trunk muscles while sitting in a bumbo seat! She now has AFOs, which we are all adjusting to, so hopefully soon she will be up and making some attempts to stand/move! her biggest accomplishment is verbalization. When we wrote her IEP in early September, we said she had 4-6 independently spoken words (Mama, Papa, Hannah, Daisy), but now she says all kinds of things. Sometimes it is her own approximation of a word (honey for hungry), but they are steps in the right direction. I love to watch he watch Dora & Diego on TV. She now says backpack, map, and "oh man" at appropriate times and claps her hands when they ask! Too cool!
Hannah turned 5 and got a new "yittle big girl bike" for her birthday. She wanted one so much to be just like cousin Nathan, but now I think she would rather ride Nathan's bike than her new one!! :) Such a stinker! She told me the other day, "Mama, I'm five years, but I'm not old!" (Five years old!)
