Bug crawled! There are no prouder parents in all the world today! This has been a struggle for Bug and she has worked so very long and hard to learn to do this. With Infantile Spasm taking away so much of her developmental abilities, she has learned to do things the hard way and has had to reprogram her brain and her muscles to do the functions that they are supposed to do. With the help of her physical therapist and occupational therapist (Amber & Nicole) along with lots of long hours of work here at home she has caught up immensely from where she was when she went into remission...and we are thrilled beyond belief.
This morning here at home she made just a couple of movements forward and I thought she was soldier crawling...and then at therapy she did it again, only a better version of it. Obviously, since we got home we have done nothing besides work with her on crawling. Teasing her with jewelry, cookies and toys. Whatever made her smile and motivated her to crawl without frustrating her. She has already improved today!
This Mommy and Daddy better get this house ready for a crawler....it's kid friendly...but is it Bug friendly?
Much love,
~K
