Go Cocks!!!

So Campbell has had a pretty eventful week . . . well, actually, her week has been spent making her parents out to be liars . . .

We've noticed that she's not been grabbing at objects very well so we asked for an occupational therapy evaluation. OTs can help with the hand/eye coordination that it takes to reach for, grab, and bring objects to her mouth. Tuesday was the day that the OT came to the house to do her evaluation and guess what . . . magically, Campbell, on the first attempt, began reaching for, grabbing, and bringing objects to her mouth and she hasn't stopped. She can now can reach for objects from her back, side, and from the sitting position.

I've also included a few pictures/videos for your viewing pleasure . . .

Campbell's cousins Jacob and Zachary checking her out . . . Campbell loves her cousins!



Campbell now reaching/grabbing objects.



Here is Campbell with her physical therapist today. Mrs. Kathy was working with Campbell today on sitting up, bringing her feet up, and leaning forward.



After her session today, Campbell had to take a quick nap in order to stay up and watch the USC game tonight . . . GO COCKS!!!! The outfit is courtesy of Nana . . . thank you!



Nana has worked with Campbell on blowing raspberries . . . well after 3 weeks of hard work, Campbell finally blew a raspberry for Mrs. Kathy, Nana, and Aunt Julie.



Finally Campbell and I would like to wish Martha/mommy good luck tonight. She's teaching a class at Winthrop this fall. The class she's teaching is a methods class for teaching students with severe disabilities . . . way to go mommy!

It was so good to hear from Campbell. Children are great at making their parents out as liars! But I am so glad she is making such great progress. She is a cutie!

Wow Campbell! Before you know it you'll be able to help fold the laundry. Well, that's what I tell Anna anyway. She just likes to make laundry. You're doing great...and way to go to your professor mommy too!
