Thank God It's Friday - Day 10
Camden woke up in a much better mood today and was once again treated to some wonderful homeade Nana cooking, this time it stayed in his stomach instead of all over Daddy and Ms. Tammy. I am so glad Camden felt better today because he had a very special visitor, Ms. Debbie, his physical therapist from his developmental day care in Jacksonville.
Ms. Debbie arrived just in time to see Camden put on his superhero suit, minus the mind reading hat. Ms. Tammy felt like Camden's extra efforts to hold his head up on his own warranted some time off from the helmet. Ms. Debbie was amazed to see how big and tall Camden stood in his suit. Camden showed off with some no handed sit ups followed by a string of log rolls. Everything was fine until it was time to crawl, or as Camden misinterpreted as time to bawl. Camden has cleverly figured out that motioning his hands to his lips means "drink" and with it comes a 5 minute break from therapy. Today however he didn't want to drink when he touched his lips, he just wanted to stop crawling. After Ms. Tammy figured out that she had been duped it was back on the mat for more crawling and bawling. This lasted for 10 more minutes unitl Ms. Beth came to Camden's rescue with her guitar.
Camden and I were lucky to have Ms. Debbie stay with us for the rest of the morning session. She was so proud of Camden's efforts and anxious to try out some new routines when he returns to Jacksonville. Camden worked on some new drills in the spider cage and finally tolerated all of the bungy cords. We were also able to see some amazing progress in his sit to stand drills. I will try to post some video tonight of him doing this drill from Monday and a second video of his progress from today. Mommy is on her way to Tallahassee this afternoon and we both can't wait to see her. Thanks again for cheering our little guy on and check back next week for his final 5 days.
