Alec is on the move. He is army crawling but only when he sees something that he shouldn't get into (phones, iPads, computers, the vaccumm cord, the dogs fur, etc) it is fun and terrifying all at the same time.
We have backed off on Lilah's speech therapy. She struggles with even eating the puréed food now. The only time I can get her to eat is when I present her with something she can hold and suck on. Unfortunatley those items are not always the heathiest. There is a fine line between incouraging her to try chunky foods and scaring her away from food because of gagging. The trouble is if we don't continue to work on chunky foods she won't get past the gagging.
The other issue is volume. She has not made the connection between eating by mouth and getting a full tummy. I pray every day that today will be the day she figures it out. I know she'll get there, I just can't wait!
