Thankful Thursday- 11 months

Lil Miss Priss, aka Maggie, turned 11 months old on Sunday! Can you say WOW?! Every month goes by quicker and I’m continually shocked at how old both of my children are getting. My word, sweet baby girl is inching toward the big ONE! Again, I look back and feel so blessed we’ve made it to this point because our reality could be completely different. By the grace of God, our precious little miracle baby girl is here with us.
To a person with a typical child, Maggie isn’t really “doing” anything. She’s not walking or crawling,  is not quite an independent sitter, doesn’t say a whole bunch of words, wave with just her hand or clap her hands. BUT Maggie has grown by leaps and bounds this month and is making so much progress! July was a big month for her. Just a few of the highlights—feeding herself, putting her feet in her mouth, standing with support and holding quadraped for short periods. Imagine someone with a stroke accomplishing all this in one month! Of course, an adult wouldn’t be crawling or putting their feet to their mouth, lol, but you get the idea. Just the other night, Maggie pulled herself forward with her arms on her belly, so commando crawling is right around the corner. We had PT this morning and Marliese is continually impressed with Maggie and her perseverance, says this will lead to big things. Praise God!
