A Busy Week

This past week has been busier than normal with Christmas approaching. We have alot lined up in the next two weeks but I will try to stay diligent in posting new entries of what we're doing.

Speech Therapy went great both Monday and Wednesday because Kendal is making new and different sounds. This is truly a blessing and makes us so much more appreciative of any progress she makes. Physical Therapy also went great and Kendal really seemed to enjoy it more this week than she has in the last two weeks. We didn't have Occupation Therapy this week due to the snow/ice we received Thursday night/Friday morning. Both me and Kendal were glad for the break because we both got to sleep in. I got to sleep till 6:00 instead of 4:45. It was wonderful.

We have yet to get Kendal anything for Christmas. I'm hoping to get out today and do a little shopping. She is a little hard to buy for because she does not like a lot of "age appropriate" toys yet. It has been suggested that it is a good time to begin to introduce toys that encourage imaginative play like dolls, play kitchen, etc. I know that her grandmother is buying her a doll this year and I am anxious to see how Kendal reacts to it. I see little girls all the time carrying around their baby dolls and that has never been something that Kendal has been interested in. Hopefully now, she will engage in more imaginative play. Me and James have talked about possibly getting her a trampoline or something to bounce on. She is learning to jump and she really has fun bouncing. Beyond that, we have no idea what to get her. Typical girl I guess - hard to buy for!
