Day #31....Saying Daddy (Dad-dy)

Driving back to the clinic didn't seem as difficult today. Mondays are much more emotional then most other days. Reese has moved back to working with a dry spoon and water. I have finally accepted that we probably will not hit our goal for feeding for a while. We will continue to work at it each day until she learns it! Keeping her opening and closing without being fearful or crying is more important then trying to rush something that cannot be rushed. We'll get there someday! I pray often to give us strength and patience with our daughter. We are a good team and will do this together!
Today started the count down until we move back home on Friday. Although feeding still has not happened for Reese, we are happy with her progress in other areas such as her physical mobility. Reese has low tone and it is hard for her to do things such as rolling, sitting, crawling & walking. She can roll, sit, start to move into a crawling position and stand for a few minutes. These are BIG steps for Reese. Our little girl makes us proud everyday. I have been working with her for a short while teaching her to say daddy. She now says it! To hear her say it over and over is too cute. She likes to hear herself say it:)I wonder who she will sound like Nicholas or Mason??? If you have heard our boys talk, they sound nothing alike!
