General Update
Well, after absorbing the diagnoses I am slowly starting to come to again. Bailey is doing wonderful otherwise. She loves to climb to the highest point in any room. I keep finding her standing on the kitchen table, climbing up in chairs, climbing over toys, even her activity tables, she helps herself to the kitchen cabinets to play now, if a door is left open, she will find out what's on the other side. I have caught her sneaking the Halloween candy leftover from Halloween. She got into the chocolate pieces, opened them, and sucked on them for a little while and then left the remants on the floor. She is walking really good now and can almost run. She is pretty fast! She will crawl through her tunnels now. She knows how to turn the train engines off and on and most of her toys as well. She knows how to turn on the computer in the boys room better than Patrick can. It amazes me how quickly she picks up on things and remembers them. She likes to dance (shake her booty), clap, is learning some sign language like more, want, done, look. She knows how to use the phone and remote control too.
Feeding wise...I have been trying to transition her to regular formula with cereal. She did fine the first few days and then her consumption dropped by 10 ounces and even that was a struggle to get in her. So 2 days ago I started giving her AR again during the day and regular formula with rice at night and she is back up to her usual volume again. So that was partially unsuccessful. At least she is getting it at night again so better than nothing. Solids, she is doing better with very tiny individual bites of small noodles. But if I try to give her 3 or 4 at a time, she spits it out or gags on it. That is a huge improvement though so she is improving just not nearly where Bradley was at this point. She still refuses most foods. She will play with it, then it ends up on the floor or being thrown about the room. Of course her delayed teething may be hampering a lot of our efforts.
