Larkin and buddy Oliver
"Look mommy! I'm doing it too!"
It was so encouraging to watch him be able to do things like help the other kids roll a mat across the room and climb up a vertical mat. You could tell he loved being able to do the things the other kids were doing too. By the end of class he seemed very happy and proud of himself.
On that note, therapy is going well. We had another session today and Larkin is doing so great. We are working on isolated standing right now and on leading with his right foot when pulling up on things. It's a lot more difficult for him to push his weight off that right leg so we've been practicing building up that strength.
Otherwise Larkin is crawling great and he seems to love his therapist. Whereas last week he was grumpy with her, this week he went right up and hugged her, laying his head down on her leg. It was so cute. To be honest I think he's sick of being stuck indoors with me (we both were a little under the weather and had to miss playgroups and outings with friends) he was so thankful to see someone besides mommy. It was as if he crawled over to her, laid down his little head and thought "Thank the Lord! Another human being!"
