Silly AJ and Therapy

So lately, Ayden Jane thinks it is hysterical to run ahead and get into the room, house... anything with a door and close it so we can not get in. (Okay, we can get in, but we play into it a bit...) It is all a part of her growing love of hiding. She finds interesting places to hide. Anything from lying with her head under a pillow to standing so close to the wall her nose touches. Somehow she thinks this makes her invisible. She also knows how to hide under, behind and on top of things. So far she does not have the patience to hide long so all is well, and she has not transferred this game to times when we are out and about. For that I am grateful. I just love the grin and belly laugh we get as she gets 'found'. Today she extended her game and she climbed up on the bed with Gary and slipped her baby under the pillow. She asked Gary, "Dad, Dad, where baby go?" She giggled with pride as Gary 'looked all over for the baby.' I imagine she plays this game with Mckenna, but it was the first we had heard her pull this one. Very cute.

We also had PT today. Ayden Jane did well, although she was not entirely cooperative. The core is continuing to strengthen and AJ picks up new skills. She is now able to tip toe all over. Just a few weeks ago she could not even stand up on her toes. Weird. She is better standing on one foot and is throwing like a champ. We will pull the 'balance beam' back out tomorrow. I put it away as AJ was going through a bit of a sensory seeking spurt which included trying to do everything way too fast. She was tripping on it in the living room and trying to go down it so fast she was falling off a lot. It seems she is re organizing everything now so maybe she will do great on that too. She sure is back to climbing everything in sight!
