A trail of destruction

Wednesday, July 11, 2006
She continues to improve on her crawling skills and moving faster now. She loves to go from room to room checking everything out. She tries to get into cabinets, bathrooms, under chairs, opening tubs of toys and slinging them everywhere, taking all the magnets off the refrigerator, tearing up paper from newspapers or magazines, getting into the tissues, whatever she can get into. She is having a great time exploring her new territory! She loves chasing Maria around and being closer to Bradley to play with him. She is still pulling up on her knees but hasn't gone any further than that. She can go from laying down, to sitting up, to crawling now and loves the new freedom.

Eating wise, she has regressed but that could be due to her new distractions. I cannot remember the last time she ate solid foods. She still loves popsicles but I haven't offered anymore sweets like milkshakes or ice cream because I need her eating better stuff and not all the sweets. I'll give her popsicles to help rehydrate her after a hot day outside. She is getting better with taking her meds and drinking more ounces per bottle (6 instead of 2-3 ounces a time) so I can tell the meds are working. She is still constipated and we are working on it getting it resolved quickly.
