Sorry I haven't written!
Life is becoming more hectic with the girls - but in a good way. Therapy continues to go well. They are sitting for longer periods of time (30-60 seconds) and are more willing to be on their hands and knees. Paige is even attempting to push herself up. Their visions is improving with Paige tracking more consistently and Bree focusing longer. They received their DAFOs on Friday-to help position their feet properly during standing. Water Therapy continues to be their favorite. Their muscle aren't as tight as they used to be and Paige is even kicking her legs one at a time. This is a sign she will be able to crawl and eventually walk. Bree continues to be symmetrical in her movements-banging both hand and feet at the same time. Paige is self-feeding while Bree is still trying to make the connection between her hand and mouth. Last week Paige's weight was 18lbs. 2 oz. and Bree 18 lbs. 1 oz. (still not on the chart yet).
Bree's seizure remain under control while Paige has shown no signs. Their personalities have really developed over the past month. Paige is our rough and tumble girl. she's constantly on the move and always beating up on her little sister. Just the other day she bit Bree so hard on the thigh she still has bruises. she has non-stop energy and loves her Jumperoo. Paige now has 8 teeth and has become quite the back talker; doing whatever it takes to get our attention. Bree is our little cuddle bug. she's perfectly content laying on the floor watching what sissy is doing. Paige is always stealing her toys so she never really gets a chance to play. she loves to be held and she gives the best hugs and kisses. Bree only has 6 teeth but her smile is what I love the most.
There continues to be some sleep issues with some nights only getting 4-5 hours of sleep. While this isn't an everynight thing, between the two of them, it's everynight for me. For now the doctor visits are taking a break until June, so all I have to deal with is therapy 4 days a week. For now, life is good!
