Keeps on Trucking.

and Abigail continues to do great. Meals are still stressful but she eats them more often than not. I have developed a "firm" voice that she has learned I mean business when she hears it. She is loving foods that she can dip into sauces. Breakfast has gotten easier since I started making "Cheese Sandwiches". These consist of scrambled eggs cooked in a pancake type fashion about 6" across....then cheese sprinkled one side...you fold the egg in half and then cut it into sections. The cheese melts and holds the two sides of the eggs together. Sound familiar, yes its an omelet :), but to Abigail it is a cheese sandwich.

Abigail continues to expand her vocabulary and sentence structure, she plays with her friends now, and even voices opinions that are age appropriate. The cutest things recently is she is starting to realize that she is adorable. "pretty hair" she says while holding it out with both hands. "pretty dress" she says while spinning slowly.

My current opinion on the seizures, even though we are not seeing them, is they are still there at some level. Picture the spines of an alligator going thru the water and leaving little wakes rippling across the mirrored surface of a pond. They disappear just as quickly as they appear. We don't see the monster but we still know its there.

Over all Abigail continues to improve in all areas and is starting to gain ground on some of her missed milestones. Everyday is a joy to watch and hang out with...she is also a terror with her toys. I must have cleaned up after her no less than 15 times this weekend. She has now been going to bed in her own bed for over a week with only two tough nights. Its weird to be able to move about the main floor of the house with out having to worry about waking her up!

Funny! Our house is messier with toys lately, too. Jade's great about cleaning up when I ask her to, but now that she's got so much energy and Halia needs more attention, she plays with more things and I'm not hovering enough to remind her to clean up before she moves on to the next thing. But I'll take it!

Does Jade dump baskets of toys over her head and then spread them around as wide as possible?? I swear Abigail is trying to drive me insane or at the very least damage my feet with small sharp plastic toys.
