I feel like I haven't talked about how Maddie has been doing with her prosthetic lately. Last week I put it on her about every day and after 5 minutes of having her arm on she found ways to pull it off. She pulls at the prosthetic hand so hard that it pops right off, so then she is scooting around the condo will her arm just hanging freely. It has actually been pretty funny! So, we continue to take it day by day and see what she will do with it. So far she hasn't been wearing it very much. She is very opinionated!:)
Maddie also started saying Dada 3 weeks ago. She is talking a lot more, which is so much fun! Bob loves when he gets home and she scoots right over to him and says, "dada, dada." Right now we are also working on helping her to find ways to pull herself up on furniture. I know she will eventually figure it out, but it does make it difficult to pull all of her weight up with just one arm. She has figured out everything else by herself, so one day she might just pull right up! She stands so well, it's just the getting up part that has been more difficult. She will get there!:o) This child is so determined and will get her SO FAR in life!
The last three weeks have been CRAZY, and I am sure Maddie has sensed that! I hope to be able to share with you all soon, and praying everything settles itself this week.
Have a happy Sunday, and a great week!
