Physical Therapy update

I can’t believe I forgot to post an update on this!

We saw Ms. Lisa Tuesday, and she is very pleased with Austin’s improvements in the last month. He was so cooperative and really seemed to be having fun with her. Its cute to watch him interact with someone else... Especially an adult... He makes me so proud...

She did give us a few more things to work with him on during our day to day life, but she said to keep it fun and follow his lead. Make it a game, and he’ll want to “play” along.

She was particularly impressed with his speed and “ease” getting up... Yes he is still pushing up on his knees with his hands... but he was doing it with one hand while holding a toy in the other.

And he is starting to try to pull down his own pants and underwear! And he is even trying to pull them up... He can get them about half way down.. so she was trying to find some ways that might make it easier on him to get them all the way down... so we are experimenting with some of them.

It was a really good visit and I am already looking forward to the next!
