Little Lady, On the Move, On the Move, On the Move!!

Little Lady is rolling around the house getting into things she shouldn't be, just like a typical toddler would. I am sure one very happy mama right now!
I guess the difference is, that if she were a typical toddler I would be telling her "No" when she knocks my picture frames over. But right now I am just so glad to see her intentionally mobile, that I don't want to say "No" to her.!

Wobbly Legs

Little Lady worked so very hard at physical/occupational therapy today. She stood and stood until her legs were wobbling and trembling. She even had muscle spasms after she was done. She loves using the walker, even just as a standing support. The one she's been practicing on offers her many places to put her hands and utilize her weight shifting.
I think she earned herself a nice long bath and a nice massage afterward.
She's such a trooper!
Here's Little Lady getting prepped for a new round of KinesioTaping.

Movin' & Groovin'

Wow!!! This Little Lady is a movin' and a groovin'! What fun!
While I've never doubted that she would eventually walk, (whether assisted or independently), I never thought that she would crawl. Well, now she's starting to make me think otherwise! Lately, Little Lady is rolling all the way over, scooting on her side, and even starting to push up independently on her arms and elbows! It's so incredible to watch her progress! She has gotten so good at her side scooting method that tonight she scooted all the way from the rug she plays on to the hallway. That is the furthest she's ever gone. And she did it pretty quickly too!! SO EXCITING!! Way to go Little Lady! Mommy is so proud of you!

Only about a week ago, she scooted across the room to get to a bowl of water. Once she got there, she did what a 'typical' child her age would do, she got into it and made a mess!!!! Why is that so exciting? Because it was her first time doing that type of thing!




In only about three more months, Little Lady will embark upon her adventures in preschool. It will be a unique and interesting process for all involved, but I am just so excited to see the growth that she will experience from being in a preschool setting and interacting with other children her age. I see big things happening soon!
