Gracie had a pretty good night, with a little bit of restlessness in the wee hours of the morning. Gracie slept until 6:15 a.m. and we snuggled for a very short time this morning as we needed to get a move on. She wasn't quite sure about whether or not she wanted mommy to leave when I dropped her off at daycare, but did okay.
Jeff picked her up and headed to her PT appointment at the clinic. Gracie's physical therapist at the clinic agreed wholeheartedly with her PT through the school system that Gracie's brand new orthotics don't fit her right and they are causing too much redness. So we need to have them redone. Gracie had a good appointment and our PT confirmed my thoughts that Gracie's knees and hips were tighter than they have been in a while. More than likely this is due to a growth spurt. I'll continue with her stretching exercises, but we know this will be a theme with Gracie since she grows so fast.
Gracie was thrilled to throw frogs (cloth ones) down the big slide. Purposeful release is coming easier and easier to her. Then she got to go down the slide...that is always a hit! We headed home to have dinner...although she was extremely thirsty, she wasn't very hungry and ended up eating very little dinner. Although she did come to get a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie later. She was chocolate from toes to ears.
Some friends stopped by around 7:00 p.m. and Gracie took right to them. She was quite the social kid. She used a pen and paper to draw a pretty picture. We were thrilled to see this as that is a skill she has been struggling with.
Gracie was more than ready for bed at 8:00 p.m. and fell right to sleep. Hopefully there will be sweet dreams tonight.
Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
