Tuesday - A Great Day at PT

Gracie awoke around 5:45 a.m. this morning and was a little disoriented as she got out of bed and almost walked into her closet door. Daddy saved her from a bump and mommy scooped her up and took her back to bed to snuggle and wake up a little more.

When I dropped Gracie off at daycare she did the whole boneless girl thing where she just collapses to the floor and fusses. This has been the theme this week so far. As soon as I leave she is fine. She just knows how to play mom!

Jeff picked Gracie up at daycare and headed to the clinic for her physical therapy appointment. I met up with them and Gracie had a great and productive session. I had Leslie, her PT, check her foot braces again as I don't think they are fitting right. They aren't horrible, but they don't fit as well as they should. We are going to go a month without them and let her run stocking foot around the house, then we will reassess how her feet are doing. Her right foot is doing very well, her left still needs a little work but we may get that if we can get her up on her tippie toes a little more often to build up the muscles. Gracie was in a great mood and charmed everyone. The desk staff let her pick out a stuffed animal, Gracie picked Frosty the Snowman.

Gracie came home with daddy while I finished up our Christmas shopping. She was very happy to see me when I got home. Gracie got her first Christmas present this year from Auntie Norma, Uncle Wayne, and Cousin Matt. It is a Little People Nativity Set and she was thrilled with it. We read the Christmas Story quite often and so she knows who Baby Jesus, Mary, Joseph, and the Angel Gabriel are...and of course the donkey.

Gracie was a tired girl tonight. With all the PT and extra walking she did today at the clinic, I wasn't surprised.

Stay warm.

Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
