Therapy Begins

Hailey had her physical therapy appointment yesterday. Just as the physical therapist was about to arrive we lost power. It doesn't take long for our third floor apartment to heat up when the air goes off and its 100 degrees outside. The appointment itself went well though. Hailey immediately decided that she like the therapist and showed off her newfound skills. The therapist could not believe how far Hailey has come since her last evaluation. After seeing her though she put it this way, she said that by 2 or 3 Hailey would be caught up with kids her "actual" age or we could do therapy for a month or two and have her caught up now. What would you choose?! So we are going to have her come to our house once a week for two months to work with Hailey. Mostly what we are working with is her "core" strength. She does crawl and cruise with the best of them, but here and there you can defintely notice some strength issues. I will keep you updated on how she does week by week. Also, next week she has her 1 year check-up with shots - yikes! She does not like the doctor anymore so that should be fun (not)!
