Grace's Milestones!

Ok, so today was a pretty spectacular day for milestones. So the first one was working on therapy stuff. She was able to go from one chair to the other, while standing, and twisting at the waist, without mommy helping!! The chairs were 26 inches apart!!!! The most she's ever done is 22 inches apart. So that was absolutely amazing.
This was on one chair...
and this was on the other chair! Good girl Grace!!

The second thing that was awesome today was Grace standing at the mirror in my bedroom. She's had a lot of fears with standing at the wall, or anything that didn't have something for her to hold onto. So it was wonderful to see her stand up at the mirror without her even being scared!

The third thing was watching her feed herself. We are really putting our feet down about this feeding issue. I mean, she's almost 20 months old and she's still being fed mainly by us. So today she fed herself lunch and dinner, and though she got super messy, needed a bath afterwards, and messed the chair, she did it! So we will continue. She had spaghetti, banana and corn for lunch, and top ramen with mixed veggies, fig newtons and grapes for dinner. She did wonderful!

The fourth thing was Grace putting the eggs in her bucket! That's just awesome that she's finally learned that when mommy says "in" that means to put it in and LEAVE it in :) Good girl Grace.

All in all, she's doing great. She is continuously getting better at signing two words, and now we just need to start working on the speaking two words at once!
