Bruce thinks Marissa thinks my name is "SayMama" because I'm always telling her..."say Mama!" She smiles and smiles.
I took Marissa to her re-check last week with the developmental specialist. She has made such progress since we started giving her floor time! In November she was 6 weeks to 2 months behind on some skills but now 4 weeks later she has improved by 6 weeks. So, her adjusted age at the visit was 31 weeks and she was checking out at 28 weeks. She made improvements in her attention and focus and her fingering (being able to pick up something as small as string) and being able to transfer a toy from one hand to the other. She is so close to being able to turn over from her back to tummy. And she gets on all fours in the crawl position and rocks and rocks like she has somewhere to go. We are all praising God for her improvements every time!!
She is not feeling so hot right now. Jake was sick earlier this week and she has been having a low grade fever and whiney for her. She acts like she has body ache. Ya know, how you just don't feel good and want to whine? Bless her heart, she's still as sweet as she can be!
No more appointments until Feburary! Then she will have her 1 year check up! (Birthday is January 26)
Sorry no pictures to post. The camera has been MIA. Molly found it last night under a pile of clutter!

I am so glad to hear that her check up was positive. She is God's little miracle and she proves that with each accomplishment.Sometimes they may be small, sometimes big, but each one is a sign of growth and many answered prayers.
So looking forward to seeing Marissa in January (of course all of the rest of you also)!
