Tuesday - Physical Therapy

Gracie had a good night after a night terror early in the evening. She slept pretty peacefully the rest of the night and once again awoke while I was in the shower. I was treated to a big smile when I greeted her.

Gracie insisted upon taking her book "Raindrop Plop" in the car with her on the way to daycare, then insisted upon taking it with her to daycare. I'm not sure how long she carried it around today, I'll have to find out in the morning as Jeff didn't realize it was there, so it stayed there.

Jeff picked Gracie up for physical therapy at the clinic and she had a great session. She was happy, cooperative, and had some good successes. She got to go down the slide a couple of times and enjoyed that. One of the other physical therapists who hadn't seen Gracie in a while commented on how straight and upright she was walking. She has made great improvement in that area. Her leg muscles were well stretched, although her hips are still tight. We also got a prescription for new orthotics for her feet. She officially has outgrown her others and we are no longer using them as they cut into her feet. We'll need to get molded this time around.

Gracie had a good evening, but was very tired. I think the PT workout tired her out. She was in bed before 8 p.m.

Have a great evening.

Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
