Today was Ella's last physical therapy to correct her torticollis (damaged neck muscles caused by the reflux)! The therapist gave us some exercises to help Ella improve her crawling and sitting (not quite mastered due to loose hip muscles - quite common and in no way connected to the reflux). Who would've thought that we would have an overly flexible daughter!? She said that Ella's social and fine motor skills are a couple months advanced - we've included a video of two of Ella's "tricks" (sorry that's sideways and a bit lengthy). She's been shaking her head "no" for a month or so and has recently been giving people "high fives". She'll happily say "no" or give you "five" all day long - quite amusing for new parents like us. The picture and video are from this evening. The pic is quite appropriate. We like to think that Ella is waving "bye bye" to the torticollis.
Oh, that is so cute! The suspense was killing me...would she give Daddy the high five?!?! LOL!
ReplyDeleteGreat news, guys - so happy to hear it. She is super adorable and so happy. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, she loves to high five everyone! Thanks Robyn! Let me know if you get your plans set to come home for Thanksgiving!
