Ok, who is reading this blog?! From the map in Google analytics, I can see that I have readers all over the country and the world, but I can only figure out some of you!
Please, if you are a regular reader and have not left a message in a while, say "hi"!
I know, I know, it's 11:48 pm and I have not started packing yet. I've still got tomorrow, right?
Apple finally released the iPhone update that allows us to customize the Home screen. Yeah, no more Stock Quotes!
Miss Sofia had her PT consult this morning. The PT made her walk up and down the stairs (we were at the mall, for our regular OT appointment), and we all followed her around before the stores opened. He (the PT) said he can see that she's thrusting her left leg very hard, not walking smoothly with it, but that she is self-correcting very well. And the OT and I noticed that she wasn't swinging the leg nearly as much as last week.
So we think maybe it was a growth spurt that had her swinging out so far, in addition to the low tone weakness. He said her ankles are not too bad, a little bit of turn-out but not much, and recommended NOT getting boots. (So after the appointment, I took her to Stride Rite for some adorable sneakers!).
Sofia was full of opinions about the whole thing. She did not want to walk on the stairs, and certainly not down the center. Every step, she inched closer and closer to the side so she could hold the rail, because the PT would only let her hold one hand. She was very funny with him, alternately flirting and yelling.
After shopping, she got angry at me at one point, because I wanted her to go left and she wanted to go right. So she laid flat down on the floor. Didn't kick or scream, just hid her head. Then, suddenly, she stuck her hand up in the air and waved "bye" to me. So I said, "Oh, you want me to leave? Ok" and started walking away [not really, of course!]. The instant I walked away, she popped up and started walking where she had wanted to go!
