Clapping but not Crawling

She started clapping the other day. It was great seeing her realize if she hit her hands together they made noise.

She was referred to Early Intervention (EI). The specialist wasn't too happy that she's not crawling yet or making attempts. But that's our fault, we hold her too much ;o) So we've been putting her down on the floor more.

We have been really enjoying her health. It takes perseverance each day: she needs nebulizer treatments to prevent breathing problems, we try to turn the air purifier on and humidifier every night. It's just a daily process that at times, especially when she's doing good, it's easier to say I'll do it tomorrow. But I try to remind myself that tomorrow could be that window of a bad reaction. We are just grateful for each day she's healthy.

Wow, Kari, she's getting soooo big! :- ) We are also enjoying a little health, tho Sam's illnesses are way mild compared to little Ari's. It's nice not to have runny noses and fevers and wicked coughs to deal with, isn't it? I pray for the day when you can say goodbye to regular hospital visits and invasive testing for sweet Ari... ttfn, mb
