11 months!!!


This is crazy, 11 months?!! I can't believe that my lil bird is almost one. This has been a really great month, furreal Yo.
*****************************
Davy has gained back her weight and then some. She is 17 pounds and 6 oz.
She is eating purees like a champ, but her bottle skills are still lacking . So we have also been working with sippies, cups and straws.
Davy officially hates physical therapy. She screams pretty much the whole time. Luckily she still likes Ot. We still go 3 times a week and then I work with Davy on my own.
I really feel like she has progressed so much because of her therapy.
I have been trying to get Davy to play pat a cake and she straight refuses. Instead she
just grabs onto my hands, so I will do it for her. Hmm..... I think I'm going to have to keep a sharp eye on her, she just might be playing me.
This month Davy has been sick free!! There has been a lot of stuff going around, so we haven't been taking her anywhere, aside from her daily walks and appointments. I am SO
thankful that she has been healthy.
Yes, she did throw up on her sweater before I even took o n e picture.
While the above picture was not my favorite shot of Davy, it was the only shot that showed of her lovely ensemble.
Sweater-Old navy, Shirt- Babies r us, Skirt- anthropolgie($14.99 after Xmas sale!!) , tights- Gap and flower clip crocheted by Grandma Vegas.
Davy has been making the funniest faces lately, especially when she is trying to do something that's hard for her. Like..... sitting up on her own , or her latest trick which is(your not gonna believe it when I tell you ) she is pushing up on ALL FOURS!!! Well her back legs are usually in a frog position, but sometimes when she makes her funny faces, she can muster the strength to go up on her knees. Don't worry I have proof down below.


C'mon Davy, You can do it!!!
Just a couple more faces.....and

she did it!!!

I think she is pretty proud of herself or she's just pooped.

Oh my heavens! Where do I start.. You must teach me your power clearance shopping ways! I'm running out of energy trying to knock off the stuff I love at Anthropologie. Talk about delicious outfit!

Yay for a whole month feeling well.. it seems like it has done wonders for her spunk! Go Davy! Getting to all 4's is a big one!

Can't wait to see what you have cooked up for her 12 month shoot - can't believe it's less than a month away ;)

I'm so in love with her! I love her funny faces, thats awesome! And I totally am loving her little mohawk! SO awesome! What a great month for Davy!!

Bless your heart, I remember those days of therapy 3-4 times a week. My Ethan hated it too. But it DOES make such a HUGE difference. It's hard to see now. We adopted Derick at 8 and he hadn't gotten the kind of early intervention that I had given Ethan. It's so obvious. There were skills he never gained as a result. So, yeah you!!! Keep it up even if it sucks. (Like you would quit. But still, you are doing a great job!)

heather said...

Christina said...

We don't know each other but I spent most of my day reading all of Davy's posts (I followed when you said start here). I'm going to go to bed in awe of you, Scott, Davy and the boys. I'm going to go to bed thinking not about the long struggle but how lucky Davy is to have you in her corner. She's beautiful. You're beautiful. Thank you for sharing the journey with us.
